Lewitt - LCT 140 AIR
Two sounds with the flip of a switchIf you like your instrument to sound 100% natural or with some extra sparkle on top, the LCT 140 AIR can do both. Featuring two sound characteristics, AIR and FLAT, you can easily switch to the sound that fits your purpose. Transients are the DNA of your instrument's sound.
To retain the natural musicality of your instruments, the LCT 140 AIR delivers an excellent transient response. The natural characteristics of cymbals are captured accurately. In any case, you get a punchy yet warm reproduction of your instrument's unique sound. The LCT 140 AIR is very durable yet lightweight thanks to its CNC'ed aluminum housing. Positioning and setup become easy tasks. A foam windscreen, microphone clip and transport bag comes included.

FLAT provides a linear frequency response for authentic recordings of drums, strings, acoustic guitars, and choirs. It is perfect if you aim for realistic sonic images.
Low-Cut Filter and PAD

This means you won't break a sweat with loud sources, nor will you have to deal with low-frequency noise when you don't want to. The LCT 140 AIR is great for acoustic guitar, drums, strings, choirs, piano, ukulele and more!
