The Black Series LA-320 V2 Twin-Tone Large-Diaphragm Tube Microphone from Lauten Audio is a versatile microphone well suited to a wide variety of vocal and instrument recording applications. The mic is capable of modern-sounding recordings with detailed high-end while also offering high- and low-pass filters that allow you to sculpt a warm, classic tone when old-school vibes are called for. The flexible mic can be used on a wide range of sources including vocals, acoustic guitars, cellos, overheads, and piano.

At its core, the microphone features a 1.3" cardioid condenser capsule with an ECC83 valve and a vintage-inspired output transformer. The 120 Hz low-cut filter helps reduce boomy lows or low-end room rumbles, while the 12 kHz high-cut filter helps to tame bright rooms and harsh sources. A spider shockmount is included to insulate the mic from vibrations and handling noise.

Two Tube Mics in One
The LA-320 V2’s onboard sound shaping eliminates the need for mic swaps and wasted time, letting you choose between the warmth of a classic tube microphone and the clarity of a modern tube microphone. Capture the wood of a worn-out acoustic guitar and the air of a pop vocal with the same microphone just by changing the filter settings.

Custom-Crafted Capsule
Unlike traditional capsule designs, the hand-tuned 32mm transducer naturally imparts gentle compression and balance to any sound source, making it ideal for use on traditionally troublesome sources. This means getting a great recording in the real world is faster and easier.

Finished Sound without the Signal Chain
The LA-320 V2 isn’t flat, it's designed for a musical response and engineered to sound great without the need for an elaborate chain of signal processing. The mic is hand-soldered with high-resolution, low-distortion polypropylene capacitors and resistors, a dual-triode vacuum tube, and a vintage-inspired output transformer. The resulting sound is crisp, clear, and full without the high noise floor and delicacy of vintage microphones.
