Do you prefer your instrument sounding 100% natural or rather have some sparkle on top? The LCT 140 AIR can do both. It features two sound characteristics, AIR and FLAT. You can easily switch to the sound that fits your purpose.
AIR adds top-end sparkle, while FLAT reproduces your sound as it is. Try both and capture the performance the way you want.
Transients are the DNA of your instrument's sound. To retain the natural musicality of your instruments, the LCT 140 AIR delivers an excellent transient response. The natural characteristics of cymbals are captured accurately.
A cardioid polar pattern picks up sound coming from the front of the microphone. Background noise will not get in the way when you use the directivity to your advantage. By positioning the mic away from potential sources of bleed or noise, your instrument will stay in focus.
