Lauten Audio Atlantis FET Condenser Microphone

The Atlantis is three distinct FET microphones packed into a single, hand-finished brass enclosure. Designed in close collaboration with renowned Producer and Mix Engineer Fab Dupont, the Atlantis provides a dynamic and versatile wealth of sound that makes picking the right microphone - for even the most troublesome sources - as easy as flipping a switch. From modern, tight and bright, to smoky, vintage velvet, the Atlantis offers an analogue abundance of ready-for-mix sounds in a single microphone.

Key Features:

• Multi-voicing:
  Three separate signal paths are readily available for effortless timbral selection at the flip of a switch. The Gentle selection is warm with a vintage feel, ideal for taming bright or abrasive sound sources. The Neutral selection is classy and balanced with a smooth top-end, perfect for acoustic instruments. The Forward selection is bold, present, and modern without ever being harsh – the quintessential sound of modern Pop, Hip-Hop, and R&B.
• Three Way Gain Staging:
  Further extending the versatility of the Atlantis is a three-position gain switch. The +10dB selection is ideal for use with quiet sound sources and consumer-grade audio interfaces where more character from the microphone itself is desired. The -10dB selection is useful when more colour and saturation from a high-end preamp is desired, or when paired with very loud sounds. Set to 0, the output of the Atlantis is at its default output selection.
• Selectable Polar Patterns:
  Polar patterns have a significant impact on the sound of a microphone because each selection determines what the microphone hears. A Cardioid selection will focus all of the microphone’s attention directly to where it is pointed and is the most commonly used polar pattern for sources such as vocals. Figure-8 and Omnidirectional selections allow the sound of a room or other off-axis instrumentation to be captured in a more open, natural, or authentic way.
