Lauten Audio LA320 V2 - Vacuum Tube Condenser Microphone
Lauten Audio LA320 V2 - Large-Diaphragm Vacuum Tube Condenser Microphone
Centered around a custom-made capsule and hand-soldered tube circuit path, the Lauten Audio LA320 gives you the musical color and gentle compression associated with classic signal chains but straight into your audio interface.
TWO TUBE MICS IN ONE
The LA-320’s onboard sound-shaping eliminates the need for mic swaps and wasted time. Choose between the warmth of a classic tube microphone and the clarity of a modern tube microphone at the flip of a switch.
CUSTOM CAPSULE
Unlike classic capsule designs, our newly improved, hand-tuned 32mm transducer naturally imparts gentle compression and balance to any sound source, making it ideal for use on traditionally troublesome applications. This means getting a great recording in the real world is faster and easier.
INSIDE STORY
The LA-320 is hand-soldered with high-resolution, low-distortion polypropylene capacitors and resistors, a dual triode vacuum tube, and a vintage-inspired output transformer.
