Description
The Lewitt LCT 540 SUBZERO, which boasts self-noise below the threshold of human hearing, is a side-address true condenser microphone that offers highly detailed and clear studio-class sound on anything from vocals and acoustic instruments to drums and guitar cabs. It features a gold-sputtered 24mm large-diaphragm capsule and high-end circuitry, so it can produce polished sonics, handle punishing SPLs before distorting, and serve extreme processing. Plus, it offers multiple pad and low-cut filter settings for optimising the signal quality at the mic.
The cardioid polar pattern is most sensitive to direct sound, and rejects a significant amount of ambient noise behind the capsule. The mic imparts a lift in the treble range to enhance crispness and clarity without sounding brittle. As with all solid-state true condensers, the LCT 540 SUBZERO requires 48V phantom power and can be connected to an XLR input on your mixer, audio interface, or mic preamp. Supplied with a shock-mount, foam windscreen, pop filter, and military-grade protective case, the LCT 540 SUBZERO is a capable mic package for the studio or stage.
