LEWITT at the 141st AES Convention

At the 141th AES Convention you had the chance to discover a tremendous number of innovative new products and promising solutions. LEWITT once again threw itself into the cheerful fray together with US distribution partner AM&S to present the LCT 640 TS.

Some of our endorsers stopped by Booth 511 and celebrated with us the launch of the new LCT 640 TS, an all-round studio mic of extraordinary quality. This multi-pattern large-diaphragm condenser microphone makes it possible to adjust the polar pattern post-recording – a concept with the potential to transform how we think about postproduction.

Set to Dual Output mode, the microphone’s front and back diaphragm follow two independent circuitries. Any polar pattern can be created such as omni, wide cardioid, cardioid, supercardioid, figure-8 and everything in between - before and after the recording. Already recorded material can be changed dynamically by adjusting the polar pattern, room sound can be added or subtracted, even turning the microphone’s directivity by 180° is possible. Also recording Mid Side stereo with only one LCT 640 TS is easy in Dual Output Mode - this is usually only possible with two microphones. The polar pattern can be set and changed with LEWITT’s Polarizer plug-in right within the DAW with incredible ease of use. In Single Output Mode the LCT 640 TS has all the well-known characteristics of a studio multi-pattern condenser microphone. Equipped with LEWITT’s Perfect Match technology any two LCT 640 TS will always form a matched pair. Clipping History, 4 low-cut and pre-attenuation settings round off the outstanding feature list of the LCT 640 TS.
