RAY is the first microphone to make this a reality. Featuring LEWITT’s new sensor-based technology called AURA, RAY dynamically adapts your levels and tone according to your distance to the microphone. It’s like autofocus but for your voice. Instead of perfectly sharp pictures, you’re getting perfectly balanced recordings. With the groundbreaking AURA Technology and MUTE by Distance feature, RAY completely changes how we interact with a microphone. And with its Record-Ready sound, voice recordings for podcasts, streaming, content, and music production become easier than ever.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAURA Technology works like autofocus for your voice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMUTE by Distance feature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDedicated MUTE button\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecord-Ready sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1\" true condenser studio capsule \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e100% analog signal path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCamera-friendly design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCardioid pattern rejects background noise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGold-plated 3-pin XLR connector\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with any audio interface providing 48 V phantom power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncl. shock mount, magnetic pop filter, windscreen, transport bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe magic of LEWITT’s AURA technology\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRAY overcomes major limitations that conventional microphones share – to ensure consistent sound quality you need to keep the proper distance and avoid moving around.

When moving away, your levels drop, and your sound gets thin. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRAY changes these rules with AURA, a sensor-based technology that precisely adapts your level and tone depending on your distance to the microphone. It’s like autofocus for your voice.
