Precision Placement Made Easy
The compact body and robust swivel mount allow for effortless positioning inside kick drums, ensuring optimal sound capture in even the tightest setups.
The Lauten Audio Kick Mic – LS-608 is a purpose-built large-diaphragm dynamic microphone engineered specifically for use inside kick drums, offering pure transient capture, on-board tonal control, and exceptional durability in a strictly limited edition design.
Designed from the ground up for internal kick drum placement, the LS-608 captures every nuance of low-frequency energy without distortion or phase issues. Its compact body fits comfortably through most bass drum port holes or can be mounted securely inside the drum itself. A robust swivel mount with over 180 degrees of movement and a repositionable handle ensures precision placement in even the tightest setups.
The LS-608 preserves the natural tone and transient detail of a kick drum, allowing engineers to make EQ and compression decisions more efficiently. Its carefully tuned polar pattern eliminates low-frequency buildup and phase smear, resulting in a focused, powerful sound that translates perfectly in both live and studio environments.
Lauten Audio integrates high- and low-cut filters directly within the microphone, enabling quick tonal adjustments without the need for external processing. This feature lets users fine-tune the balance between attack, punch, and sub-bass presence directly at the source.
At the heart of the LS-608 lies the KC-608 single-diaphragm capsule, developed to deliver superior transient response and extended dynamic range. Its design ensures that both the beater click and the deep body resonance of the kick drum remain perfectly balanced, providing a full-range, mix-ready sound straight out of the mic.
