The LA-320 V2 has been built around Lauten\u2019s own custom-made capsule which delivers a natural sound balance and subtle compression, as well as a hand-soldered tube circuit path. The new LA-320 V2 is not only similar to the flagship Eden LT-386 in look, but it has also been designed to bring Lauten Audio\u2019s signature blend of vintage and modern tube sound to what ever sound source is being recorded.<\/p>\n<p>Much of Lauten Audio\u2019s microphone building philosophy centres around designing versatile microphones that can be used for a wide range of sources, eliminating the time wasted searching for the correct tool for the job. The LA-320 V2 is no different, offering unique sound shaping capabilities that help to remove the need to swap microphones during a recording session. The High Pass and Low Pass switches make it possible to move between recording acoustic guitar to modern pop vocals at the flip of a switch. There are tones and timbres for a wide range of scenarios, with the LA-320 V2 delivering both classic and modern sounds in one microphone.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Lauten Audio LA-320 Product Page at Synthax Audio UK\" href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/lauten-audio\/lauten-series-black\/lauten-la-320\/\">Learn more about the Lauten Audio LA-320 V2<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-Audio-LA-220-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright  wp-image-48290\" src=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-Audio-LA-220-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg\" alt=\"Lauten Audio LA-120 V2 - Synthax Audio UK\" width=\"250\" height=\"259\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-Audio-LA-220-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-Audio-LA-220-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK-290x300.jpg 290w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-Audio-LA-220-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK-988x1024.jpg 988w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-Audio-LA-220-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK-768x796.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 250px) 100vw, 250px\" \/><\/a>Lauten Audio LA-220 V2<\/h2>\n<p>The <a title=\"Lauten Audio LA-220 Product Page at Synthax Audio UK\" href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/lauten-audio\/lauten-series-black\/lauten-la-220-v2\/\">Lauten Audio LA-220 V2<\/a> is a FET microphone that, much like its tube sibling the LA-320, offers both classic warmth and modern clarity simply by flipping a switch. Just like other microphones in the Series Black range, the LA-220 V2 has been designed to sound incredible without the need for the intricate signal chains that many vintage microphones are paired with.<\/p>\n<p>The custom-made Lauten Audio capsule is the foundation of the LA-220 V2\u2019s design. Creating a unique yet versatile starting point for any session, the microphone\u2019s wide range of recording applications is unlocked when used with the LA-220 V2\u2019s sound shaping switches.<\/p>\n<p>Just like the larger tube-based LA-320, the LA-220 V2&#8217;s analogue filters make it quick and easy to access a wide range of sounds. These sound-shaping capabilities transform the LA-220 V2 \u2013 and the rest of the Series Black \u2013 into a microphone that can handle everything from punchy vocals to electric guitar effortlessly.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Lauten Audio LA-220 Product Page at Synthax Audio UK\" href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/lauten-audio\/lauten-series-black\/lauten-la-220-v2\/\">Learn more about the Lauten Audio LA-220<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-LA-120-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-3\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" title=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-48287\" src=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-LA-120-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"258\" height=\"258\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-LA-120-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-LA-120-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-LA-120-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-LA-120-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK-768x767.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-LA-120-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK-267x268.jpg 267w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Lauten-LA-120-V2-Synthax-Audio-UK-75x75.jpg 75w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 258px) 100vw, 258px\" \/><\/a>Lauten Audio LA-120 V2<\/h2>\n<p>The <a title=\"Lauten Audio LA-120 Product Page at Synthax Audio UK\" href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/lauten-audio\/lauten-series-black\/lauten-la-120-v2\/\">Lauten Audio LA-120 V2<\/a> is a transformerless condenser microphone that offers incredible transparency and sonic flexibility. This uniquely configurable design is equipped with analogue sound-shaping onboard and includes interchangeable Cardioid and Omni capsule. This makes the LA-120 V2 an incredibly versatile microphone, perfect for recording a wide range of sound sources.<\/p>\n<p>Like the rest of the Series Black microphones, the LA-120 V2 has been designed around reproducing the vibrance and character of a sound as authentically as possible. For this reason, Lauten built the LA-120 V2 around a US-made JFET to help capture what they call \u201cunprecedented realism\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>There are two sound-shaping options which offer a wide range of tones at the flip of a switch. The combination of high pass and low pass switches makes the LA-120 V2 a fantastic choice for everything from drum overheads to piano, as well as authentically recording strings and acoustic guitars.<\/p>\n<p>If the LA-120 V2 is the microphone of choice for louder sources, like toms and snare drums, then Lauten\u2019s optional in-line pads provide the solution. These special designed pads allow the dynamic range and depth to be fully utilized on high SPL sound sources.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Lauten Audio LA-120 Product Page at Synthax Audio UK\" href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/lauten-audio\/lauten-series-black\/lauten-la-120-v2\/\">Learn more about the Lauten Audio LA-120 V2<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><a title=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Lauten-Audio-Logo-01-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-bGlnaHRib3gtaW1hZ2UtYkdsbmFIUmliM2d0YVcxaFoyVXRZa2RzYm1GSVVtbGlNMmQwWVZjeGFGb3lWWFJaYTJSelltMUdTVlZ0YkdsTk1tUXdXVlpqZUdGR2IzbFdXRkphWVRKU2VsbHRNVWRUVmxaMFlrZHNUazF0VVhkWFZscHFaVWRHUjJJemJGZFhSa3BQVmxaUmQwOVJQVDA9\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" data-rl_caption=\"\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6135\" src=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Lauten-Audio-Logo-01-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 149px) 100vw, 149px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Lauten-Audio-Logo-01-Synthax-Audio-UK.jpg 489w, https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/latest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Lauten-Audio-Logo-01-Synthax-Audio-UK-300x123.jpg 300w\" width=\"149\" height=\"61\" \/><\/a><br \/>If you\u2019d like to know more about <a title=\"Lauten Audio microphones at Synthax.co.uk\" href=\"https:\/\/www.synthax.co.uk\/lauten-audio\/\">Lauten Audio microphones<\/a>, give us a call on <a>01727 821 870<\/a> to speak to one of our team or to arrange a demo.<\/p>\n<p>You can also contact us <a href=\"mailto:info@synthax.co.uk?subject=Lauten%20Audio%20Microphones%20Enquiry\">via email<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n<style>\n\np {font-size: 120%;}\n\n<\/style>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lauten Audio have announced the V2 release of their Series Black family, bringing improvements to the popular LA-120, LA-220 and LA-320 microphones .
