The Lauten Audio LA-220 V2 FET Condenser Microphone is a versatile two-tone microphone that allows users to switch between classic warmth and modern clarity, ensuring high-quality sound capture for various applications without the need for a complex signal chain.

Versatility and Convenience

The LA-220 offers unprecedented versatility with its ability to switch between modern and classic sound profiles at the flip of a switch. This feature eliminates the need for multiple microphones, reducing downtime and allowing professionals to focus on creating music. Whether the sound is too bright or too dark, a simple switch can adjust the tonal quality, making it an ideal choice for various recording scenarios, from vocals to electric guitars.

Custom Capsule Design

At the heart of the LA-220 is a custom-made Lauten Audio capsule, shared with its larger tube sibling, the LA-320. This 32mm transducer imparts a natural, gentle compression and balanced sound, making it perfect for string, percussion, and vocal applications. The unique capsule design ensures the microphone sounds musical and balanced without requiring a fancy signal chain, though it still excels when used with one.

These premium components ensure the microphone performs reliably and produces high-quality audio brimming with life.

Designed for Longevity
