This uniquely configurable design is equipped with analog sound-shaping onboard and includes interchangeable Cardioid and Omni capsules for added flexibility. Unlike traditional microphone designs that utilize a transformer to introduce color and saturation, the LA-120 is built around a US-made JFET to capture the vibrance and character of a sound with unprecedented realism and authenticity. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMORE THAN MEETS THE EYE\u003cbr\u003eThe LA-120’s onboard sound-shaping eliminates the need for mic swaps and wasted time. Jump from crisp to smooth to ribbon-like sonics at the flip of a switch. Take the edge off harsh overheads, or warm up a bright piano. Add picking articulation to an acoustic guitar or perfectly capture a string quartet, all at the flip of a switch.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCUSTOM CAPSULES\u003cbr\u003eOur hand-tuned 17mm capsules provide transparent, lifelike sound with a musical blend of transient response and natural compression. This makes the LA-120 an ideal choice for use on drum overheads, percussion, acoustic guitar, and piano. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eOMNI \u0026amp; CARDIOID POLAR PATTERNS\u003cbr\u003eCardioid capsules will focus each microphone’s attention directly to where it is pointed, reducing the overall sound of a room in a recording. Omnidirectional capsules allow the sound of a room or other off-axis instrumentation to be captured naturally and with uncolored authenticity.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eTRANSFORMERLESS TRANSPARENCY\u003cbr\u003eThe LA-120 signal path is hand-populated with high-resolution, low-distortion polypropylene capacitors and resistors, built around a US-made JFET for articulate, uncolored, and high-impact performance.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eHIGH SPL ASSISTANCE (OPTIONAL)\u003cbr\u003eWe designed the LA-120s to excel in numerous applications, but you may want to use them on something extra loud. The optional in-line pads allow the LA-120s dynamic range and depth to be fully utilized on high SPL sound sources like toms, snare drums, and more.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eDESIGNED \u0026amp; TESTED IN SILICON VALLEY, CA\u003cbr\u003eEach LA-120 is lovingly designed and built to last a lifetime by the Lauten Audio family.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIN THE BOX\u003cbr\u003e• 2x LA-120 Microphone Bodies\u003cbr\u003e• 2x Cardioid Capsules\u003cbr\u003e• 2x Omni Capsules\u003cbr\u003e• 2x Stand Mounts\u003cbr\u003e• 2x Windscreens\u003cbr\u003e• QuickStart Guide\u003cbr\u003e• Registration Card\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lauten Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44431638298717,"sku":"LAU-LA120V2","price":854.05,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/8179\/7213\/files\/la-120_full.jpg?v=1778355439","url":"https:\/\/gearstage.store\/products\/lauten-audio-black-la-120-v2-small-diaphragm-condenser-microphone-pair","provider":"GearStage","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
