A new benchmark is set
The LCT 540 S is the flagship single-pattern 1” true condenser studio microphone in LEWITTs product line. Its cutting-edge circuit design is an outstanding achievement on all technical levels. It drops self-noise below the threshold of human hearing at a sensitivity of 40 mV/Pa, -28 dBV/Pa, and increases the dynamic range to 132 dB – a new benchmark for studio-grade large-diaphragm condensers.
Rediscover sound
The LCT 540 S was first and foremost designed to be an outstanding vocal microphone. But naturally, thanks to its specifications, it is suitable for almost any application. Its outstandingly low self-noise is shown at full strength on quiet sources and genres with a high dynamic range, such as Classical music, Jazz, Singer-Songwriter and Foley recordings.
The beauty of unlimited detail
Since the LCT 540 S was built with absolute precision it captures every sound source with absolute precision; not even the tiniest detail of your recorded source will get lost. To guarantee its ultra-resolution sound and first-class sonic imaging, every 3 µm gold-sputtered, 1" Mylar diaphragm underlies the strictest quality controls.
Perfect Match technology
Every single LCT 540 S undergoes a series of measurements followed by an adjustment of the polarization voltage to achieve the same sensitivity in every LCT 540 S ever produced.
Illuminated user interface with clipping indicator
Quick and accurate - even in total darkness it is easy to check or change the settings using the pushbuttons.
