Description
A modern vacuum tube microphone like no other! The Eden LT-386 by Lauten Audio is a Multi-voicing™ vacuum tube large diaphragm condenser microphone. The LT-386 is for discerning recordists in search of the most diverse and useful studio vacuum tube microphone. It offers a unique blend of classic and modern design theory which exhibits a smooth, rich low and mid-range as well as high mid and high timbre reminiscent of premier classic vacuum tube microphones. From its attached, semi-permanent, suspension mount, to its three different switches housed on the microphone itself, Eden offers an endless palette of sound.
Lauten Eden LT-386 at a glance - Designed for the most discerning ears in the business - Multi-voicing switch for three distinct timbres - Vocal shaping high-pass filter - Kick-drum shaping high-pass filter - Switchable patterns on the microphone - Stunning appearance, built to the hilt, refined character
Pattern switching on the microphone The polar pattern switch gives recordists the option of choosing between Cardioid, Omnidirectional or Figure-8 polar patterns. Having the pattern switch on the microphone, rather than the power supply, allows you or the artist to quickly and easily make your selection. All though not as common today, we were inspired by the most admired classics when we decided to put this feature on the microphone itself.
Vocal and Kick-drum shaping high-pass filters Next up we have our unique 2-stage high-pass filters we call “Kick-shaper” and “Vocal-shaper”. These filters are uniquely tuned to shape the low-end for two of the most commons trouble areas. In its default position there is no high-pass. Stage one, or the middle position, is the “Kick-shaper”, as you can probably guess this was specifically designed for kick-drums. With its very step cut of the low-end, it removes excess boominess that might actually take away from a big sounding kick. But feel free to try it on toms, vocals, guitars etc. Moving the switch to stage 2, or the bottom position, is the “Vocal-shaper” which is designed to clean up your vocal tracks for an amazingly smooth and classic sounding vocal track. Of course it will be useful for many more sources as well.
