Description
The Lewitt LCT 940 combines the specific characteristics of a premium large-diaphragm FET condenser microphone and a top-notch tube microphone in one housing. Basically, users can choose between the two main settings “FET” and “Tube”. These two signal paths have been incorporated separately and work independently of each other.
The LCT 940 features a total of nine different polar patterns – our five “standard” polar patterns omni-directional, cardioid, figure-8, wide- and super-cardioid and four additional intermediate patterns. The microphone features four levels of attenuation and four switchable high-pass filters, LEDs and push buttons for noiseless handling on the PSU. Automatic attenuation and clipping history round off the outstanding feature list of the LCT 940.
This is Lewitt’s latest microphone and not the discontinued 940 Authentica. This micro is like the new 1040 but without remote control.
