Traditional microphones were made for a signal chain that you don’t have, so we designed the LA-220 to sound great without it. Centered around a custom-made Lauten Audio capsule and hand-soldered circuit path, our unique microphone design gives you the musical color and gentle compression associated with classic signal chains but straight into your audio interface.  \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEach LA-220 is lovingly designed and built to last a lifetime by the Lauten Audio family.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_0\"\u003eTWO MICS IN ONE\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eChoose between modern clarity and classic warmth at the flip of a switch. Is something too bright? Flip a switch. Too dark? Flip a switch. The LA-220’s onboard analog sound-shaping eliminates the need for mic swaps and downtime, which means you can focus on the main thing --- making music. Capture vocals with presence and punch or an electric guitar without any annoying high-end sizzle effortlessly.   \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_1\"\u003eCUSTOM CAPSULE\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe LA-220 utilizes the same capsule as its larger tube sibling, the LA-320. Unlike traditional capsule designs, our hand-tuned 32mm transducer naturally imparts gentle compression and balance to any sound source, making it ideal for use in an array of string, percussion, and vocal applications. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_2\"\u003eCLASSIC SOUND WITHOUT THE SIGNAL CHAIN\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe LA-220 isn’t flat – it sounds like music. We believe every Lauten Audio microphone should stand on its own and make your life easier. Does the LA-220 sound great with a fancy signal chain? You bet! Does it need one to deliver powerful, present sound? Nope. \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_3\"\u003eWHAT'S INSIDE MATTERS\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eHand-soldered with high resolution, low distortion polypropylene capacitors and resistors, a US-made ultra-low noise JFET, and a vintage-inspired output transformer. The result is a crisp, clear, mix-ready sound brimming with life.  \u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3 id=\"toc_4\"\u003eAPPLICATIONS:\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eVocals \u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDrum Overheads\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eKick\/Toms\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAcoustic Guitar\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eElectric Guitar\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Lauten Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450869903463,"sku":"181196","price":359.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/lauten-la-220_181196_1_571e3389-5346-4f7e-94fa-028bbcdba9a9.jpg?v=1787094884","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.com\/products\/lauten-la-220-v2-fet-condenser-microphone","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
