Description

Here’s what Lauten Audio say:

Equipped with our newly designed Super-cardioid capsule and dual-bias circuitry, Tom Mic captures pure, high-definition rack and floor tom sonics with maximum impact and tone while minimizing cymbal bleed.

Key features

  • Super-cardioid large diaphragm condenser capsule focuses on the source, the drum.
  • Circuit designed for high-dynamic range and an output level that melds well with preamps. 
  • Body designed to allow proper airflow but also reduce frequencies captured by the rear node.

Built for the job

Each Tom Mic has a solid brass headframe and mildew-resistant dust filter to protect against stick hits, dust, and debris.

28dB off-axis rejection

Our bleed-blocking head design and dual-bias circuitry work together to provide Tom Mic with up to 28dB of off-axis rejection. This means crisp, clear tom sounds with far less cymbal bleed than a traditional dynamic or condenser microphone.

Onboard sound shaping

Tom Mic’s filters impact the overall performance of the microphone and play a critical role in its sonic versatility.
