Extra punch and precision with the blendable FET circuit
Tweak your sound to perfection. You can dial in the FET circuit via the Circuit control whenever you're looking for that extra punch or precision for your voice or instrument.
Tweak all settings from your sweetspot via the remote control
Set up the LCT 1040 in the recording room where the artist performs. Detach the remote control from the PSU and connect them via your standard 3-pin XLR cable. Now you can finetune your sound from your sweetspot via the remote control, ensuring a smooth-running session.
Seamless polar pattern control to get exactly what you want
Set the directivity with the seamless polar pattern control of the LCT 1040, giving you exactly what you were looking for. Additionally, you can also freely define the front of the mic depending on your recording scenario using the Default/Reverse flip switch.
Two XLR outputs for full flexibility in post-production
To prepare you for all possible scenarios, the LCT 1040 features two XLR outputs with Neutrik connectors.
Shock mount with carbon fiber elements and quick release mechanism
Quick release mechanisms for the microphone and the adjustment of the angle. Carbon fiber elements support efficient decoupling of the microphone. The microphone can be turned by 360° when inside the shock mount.
Dual-layer magnetic pop filter for clean recordings.
The high-performance magnetic pop filter of the LCT 1040 protects your capsule from unwanted plosives and moisture. Its double-layer design perfectly integrates with the shock mount and ensures clean recordings with any vocalist or genre.
