PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
- Ideal for stereo recording Stereo recording captures a three-dimensional image of a sound source allowing for a more immersive and natural listening experience. With the LCT 040 MP Matched Pair this is easy to achieve thanks to Lewitt&rsquo
- s strict matching process. Both microphones are tested and calibrated to ensure their frequency response and sensitivity are perfectly aligned. This makes them ideal for X/Y ORTF or spaced pair techniques helping you achieve accurate spatial detail with no tonal imbalance. Precision transient response The LCT 040 MP is built to capture the subtle and fast transients that define the character of instruments like hi-hats snares and acoustic guitars. This accurate transient reproduction ensures punchy clear recordings that retain the energy and attack of the original source. You hear exactly what you play with every nuance and rhythmic detail preserved. Lightweight and durable construction Weighing just 44 grams per mic the LCT 040 MP is easy to position and perfect for tight setups. The CNC-machined aluminium body offers long-term durability while keeping weight to a minimum. This makes them ideal for mobile recording rigs or for drummers who want fast setup and teardown times without compromising on sound quality. Cardioid pattern for focused capture The cardioid polar pattern is designed to capture audio from the front while rejecting unwanted sounds from the rear and sides. This is especially useful when recording in live environments or untreated rooms as it keeps the focus on the intended source and reduces bleed from other instruments. The result is a cleaner more professional recording that&rsquo
- s easier to mix. Automated matching system Lewitt matches each pair using an automated algorithm that compares individual mic frequency responses and sensitivity. The system adjusts the capsule&rsquo
- s polarisation voltage to fine-tune each mic&rsquo
- s sensitivity until the two are virtually identical. This ensures stereo recordings have consistent tone and imaging with no guesswork required from the user. Perfect for drums and acoustic instruments Designed with drums and acoustic guitar in mind the LCT 040 MP handles fast transients and subtle dynamics with equal precision. When used as overheads they deliver a crisp punchy drum sound that translates naturally. On acoustic guitar they capture strumming details and fingerpicking articulation with depth and clarity. Their neutral character and pleasant top-end make them a strong all-rounder for any stereo mic application. Whats included?
