Lauten Audio LS-208 Cardioid Condenser Microphone
Front-address large diaphragm condenser microphone featuring a full 120 dB (135 dB total) dynamic range and excellent off-axis sound rejection
MFR# LS208002
Product Description
The Lauten Audio LS-208 is a professional front-address large diaphragm condenser voice and instrument microphone that brings brilliance and expressiveness to broadcast, sound reinforcement, podcasting, and studio recording.
The LS-208 features a wide frequency response with a full 120 dB of dynamic range and 135 dB of SPL handling without the need for attenuation. The excellent off-axis rejection makes the LS-208 perfect for focusing on the sound source while reducing bleed in lively environments. Constructed from high-quality components and outfitted with frequency shaping high and low-cut filters, the LS-208 comes with a spider shock mount great for broadcast, a hard mount for tight spots, a foam windscreen to protect from plosives, and a rugged road case housing all these accessories.
STUDIO QUALITY ON RADIO & STAGE
The LS-208 is a professional front-address large-diaphragm condenser microphone designed for studio, live, broadcast recording and sound reinforcement. The LS-208 brings the brilliance and clarity of high-end studio microphones and combines it with the handling capabilities of a dynamic microphone.
BRILLIANT RECORDINGS
The LS-208 does not require pre-attenuation but can handle 135 dB SPL due to its circuit design. Highly unique for a microphone of its type is its ability to capture a full 120 db of dynamic range without the use of internal or external pre-attenuation. This gives engineers the ability to capture brilliant recordings of highly dynamic instruments and environments without sacrificing sound quality.
EXCELLENT OFF-AXIS REJECTION
The LS-208 also features excellent off-axis rejection. It will provide excellent rejection of off-axis voices, instruments, crowds, etc., making it great for live radio broadcast and podcasts, or for multi-instrument, live-studio and on-stage recording or sound reinforcement.
INDEPENDENT FILTERS
The Independent, multi-stage, high and low-cut filters help engineers balance recordings at the microphone and aid in successfully capturing the performance reducing the need for mixing. The 2-stage low-cut aids in reducing low-end rumble, muddiness, and proximity effect. The 2-stage high-cut helps tame bright instruments and high frequencies.

Product Reviews

Love this mic. It replaced my SM7B. I've found that it has studio quality sound for recording vocals without the need for acoustic treatment. I use for rap / R&B, voice-over and general zoom / tutorial videos.

The Lauten Audio LS-208 is a great remedy for hi-hat bleed in your snare track. It also just sounds great.

Purchased for a podcast project but it would happily serve other duties, too. A nice mix somewhere between the RE-20 and SM-7. Built like a tank and the only "but" would be the plosives, which are nicely dealt with by the foam windscreen. Recommended to me by my trusted VK sales rep and I was not disappointed.
