Lewitt - LCT 1040

Lately I’ve been really enjoying my Lewitt lct1040 into a Midas desk with a wa2a insert post channel comp catching the fast stuff. Eq to taste. The Lewitt has so many options with all the tube and fet combinations. It’s a great mic. Super happy with it.

The Lewitt 1040, the $3k one, is amazing! Dialing in Tube vs FET or a blend, plus 4 kinds of saturation, is an incredible way to get the perfect sound for YOUR voice. I’ve been using it since it came out and there are very few mics at any price that can beat it.

Lewitt 1040 for massive flexibility/variety within the tier you’re after

I have their Pure Tube, and it’s fantastic. The 1040 is basically the pure tube + fully adjustable polar pattern and blend of tube/fet, and 4 different tube options. Huge Lewitt fan, they aren’t afraid to try new things in mic design, and always with the goal of solving real world issues

please for the love of god, just get the lewitt. do not listen to the people saying samson shure etc. look into the lewitt mics, their $100 entry mic is miles above the price. the best studio LDC mic for that low of a cost by far

no problem. they've become a prominent brand amongst engineers for their price - quality ratio. look into produce like a pro if you want an entry into the brief history of their mics. long story short, when AKG was bought out of their company some of the employees left & started their own brands of mics. (lewitt & austrian audio) lewitt has some great people behind their products.
