Minimum Bleed. Maximum Impact.
Capture the distinct tones of your snare and toms with exceptional clarity and minimal bleed.
Whether you’re in the studio or out on tour, Lauten Audio’s Snare Mic and Tom Mic are engineered to handle the wide dynamics and intricate nuances of modern drum sounds, ensuring every hit is recorded with minimum bleed – and maximum impact!
AT HOME
Professional sound straight
into your audio interface.
IN THE STUDIO
The power of a condenser with the
rejection of a dynamic.
ON THE ROAD
Studio sound, built for the rigors and
abuse of touring.
SNARE MIC
Snare Mic captures a snare drum’s true impact, body, and timbre while rejecting up to 28dB of off-axis sounds. This means clear, mix-ready sonics with optimal phase coherence straight out of the microphone.
TOM MIC
Equipped with Lauten’s newly designed Super-cardioid capsule and dual-bias circuitry, Tom Mic captures pure, high-definition rack and floor tom sonics while minimizing cymbal bleed.
And introducing the
Lauten Audio Rim Mount…
Rim Mount’s shock-absorbent design and fully articulating arm system allow you to easily mount and optimally place microphones on the rim of almost any drum.
No more sagging mounts or repositioning microphones between songs.
Lock it in and walk away.
LS-208
The LS-208 rejects off-axis sounds including bandmates, pets, air conditioning, and room echo. Capture studio-quality sound in poorly treated rooms and on stage with the depth and clarity of a large diaphragm condenser microphone.
Pro Tip: Give it a shot on your kick drum!
LS-308
The LS-308 is one-of-a-kind, side-address condenser microphone that hears like a laser, sounds like a ribbon, and is able to withstand a staggering 135dB of SPL without internal padding.
