The result is crisp, high-definition sounds with minimal cymbal bleed for professional, mix-ready sounds on the stage and in the studio.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Maximum impact and tone, minimal bleed<\/h2>\n<p>The Lauten Audio Tom Mic applies a fresh approach to capturing the sounds of rack and floor toms with its own specific capsule design and frequency response.<\/p>\n<p>Carefully tuned to elevate the key frequencies for tom drums and provide maximum impact, dynamics, and tone with minimal EQing, the Tom Mic\u2019s bleed-blocking head design and dual bias circuitry ensure minimal cymbal bleed, resulting in pure, high-definition sonics that perfectly fit in the mix. For added sonic flexibility, Tom Mic also includes a pair of Lauten\u2019s innovative high and low-cut filter switches, enabling users to musically rebalance the attack and body of any tom at the flip of a switch.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeing a fly on the wall during studio sessions, we learned that big, large diaphragm condenser microphones on Toms are a recording engineer&#8217;s dream,\u201d explains Lauten Audio&#8217;s Founder <em>Brian Loudenslager<\/em>. \u201cTypically though, they are limited to rooms in the studio with amazing acoustics and are unusable live due to bleed and the fact that they would get in the way of performing. We&#8217;ve made that dream possible in any situation. Tom Mic has that sound without the footprint or bleed. The most common feedback is that they&#8217;re so easy and forgiving to get a good tom sound without any processing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div style=\"display: flex; justify-content: center; margin: 0 auto; text-align: center;\">\n<div>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: center;\">Lauten Audio Tom Mic &#8211; Darrell (Foo Fighters) Sully (RATM) Blair (Alanis Morissette) at Studio 606<\/h4>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Lauten Audio Tom Mic - Darrell (Foo Fighters) Sully (RATM) Blair (Alanis Morissette) at Studio 606\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BkiYyIGa3XE\" width=\"1280\" height=\"720\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p id=\"synthax-subscribe\" style=\"text-align: center;\">See more videos at <a title=\"Subscribe to the SynthaxTV YouTube channel\" href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/subscription_center?add_user=synthaxtv\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Synthax TV<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2>Flexible, portable, and hidden in plain view<\/h2>\n<p>The Tom Mic\u2019s compact size and flexible mounting options make it easy to fit on even the most crowded drum kits. The newly designed capsule is hand-tuned and vibration-resistant, to provide excellent tone while minimizing overtones from neighboring drums. Its solid brass headframe and mildew-resistant dust filter protect the microphone from stick hits, dust and debris for a lifetime of road and studio duty.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTom Mic is three-plus years in the making, and much thought and effort went into making a microphone with this timbre, this much rejection, and in this size,\u201d <em>Loudenslager<\/em> continued. \u201cTom Mic is also very different from our LS-308: a new large diaphragm, pressure gradient Supercardioid capsule, a new circuit, and a much smaller body; literally less than half its size.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn a more humorous note, it&#8217;s also our most leaked product ever! Over the past seven months, I&#8217;ve been getting lots of DMs from people saying they&#8217;ve spotted LS-308&#8217;s on Toms. The reality is that it was almost always Tom Mic hiding in plain sight at live gigs being field-tested. For example, <em>Antony King<\/em> and <em>Ian Beveridge<\/em> have had them on <em>Josh Freese<\/em>&#8216;s kit for the <em>Foo Fighters<\/em> since November last year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTom Mic is Lauten Audio&#8217;s most tailored, application-specific microphone ever. I&#8217;m very proud of our modest team and extremely thankful to those who helped us; we couldn&#8217;t have done this without help from our extended family.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Lauten Audio Tom Mic is available now.
