The Lewitt LCT 440 PURE is a single-pattern large diaphragm condenser microphone with top-of-the-line technology. Pushing the limits of today's technology has been the credo of Lewitt since day one. The name says it all - expect nothing less than pure sound. The LCT 440 PURE uses the same high-end components and capsule technology as Lewitt’s prestige models packed into a sturdy, stylish and compact housing. The LCT 440 PURE features detailed sound with first-class transient response thanks to its ultra-thin, gold-layered, low-mass, 1" diaphragm. Offering exceptional off-axis sound suppression, the LCT 440 PURE's cardioid polar pattern guarantees effective rear rejection, making it ideal for studio, stage and home recording applications. Capture every nuance of your instrument or voice in any recording scenario. Use it to record your vocals, acoustic instruments, guitar amplifiers, drums and percussion, and everything else. With super-low self-noise and the ability to handle ear-shattering sound pressure levels, one thing is for sure - nothing will limit your performance on the technical side. Reduce unwanted structure-borne noise efficiently using the included shock mount. The open front enables you to move the microphone as close as you like to the source. The magnetic pop filter hides nothing but captures everything. It perfectly integrates with the design of the microphone. Includes LCT 440 PURE, LCT 40 Wx windshield, LCT 40 SH shock mount, LCT PSx magnetic pop filter, and DTP 40 Lb. cushioned mic bag. Like all Lewitt microphones, the LCT 440 PURE is designed and engineered in Vienna, Austria.
