The Lewitt RAY is the first XLR studio condenser with AURA distance-sensing technology. A built-in time-of-flight sensor continuously measures your distance from 5 to 100 cm and adjusts level and tone in real time to keep vocals balanced as you move, while the audio path stays 100% analog. MUTE by Distance can automatically attenuate the signal when you step away, and the kit includes a shock mount, magnetic pop filter, foam windscreen, and transport bag.
