Lewitt

Lewitt at Kirstein – modern audio technology for studio and stage

Lewitt was founded by Roman Perschon in Vienna in 2009 and focuses on audio technology for recording, content creation and live applications. Microphones are at the heart of its product range, complemented by audio interfaces and software. Rather than simply recreating classic microphone concepts, Lewitt uses modern circuitry, straightforward controls and features designed to simplify the recording process in many of its models. An important milestone for the brand is the LCT 440 PURE, introduced in 2017 and described by Lewitt itself as a bestseller.

LCT – Lewitt studio microphones for recording and content creation

The LCT product family forms a central part of the Lewitt range. The LCT 240 PRO is designed for home recording, while the LCT 440 PURE is a versatile condenser microphone for vocals, speech and instruments. Both models are large-diaphragm microphones and are particularly suitable for users looking to capture voices or individual instruments directly and in detail.

For users who need more flexibility in terms of polar patterns, the LCT 441 FLEX offers eight selectable polar patterns. Further up the range, Lewitt offers models including the LCT 540 S and LCT 640 TS as well as the more elaborate LCT 940 and LCT 1040. The LCT 940 combines tube and FET circuitry, allowing the characteristics of the two sounds to be blended. The LCT 1040 is an extensive high-end microphone system designed for professional studio applications.

Lewitt small-diaphragm and instrument microphones

For acoustic instruments and drums, Lewitt offers compact condenser microphones such as the LCT 040 MATCH and LCT 140 AIR. The LCT 040 MATCH can be used for applications including acoustic guitar and drums and is also available as a matched stereo pair. Models like these are particularly useful when fast transients and precise spatial imaging are important.

MTP and DTP – Lewitt for stage, vocals and drums

The MTP series primarily covers live applications. The dynamic MTP 5 is designed for live vocals and speech, while models such as the MTP 840 DM and the MTP W950 condenser microphone provide further options for more demanding stage applications. The MTP 440 DM can also be used to capture drums and amplifiers.

The DTP family focuses more closely on drums and instruments. Models such as the DTP 340 TT, DTP 340 REX and DTP 640 REX are designed for different drum-miking tasks. This allows users to choose specifically between vocal, studio and instrument microphones within the Lewitt portfolio rather than relying on the same microphone type for every application.

RAY – microphone with sensor-based AURA technology

With RAY, Lewitt takes a particularly modern approach to voice and vocal recording. The manufacturer describes RAY as the first microphone with autofocus for your voice. Its sensor-based AURA technology detects the distance to the sound source and enables features including MUTE by Distance. RAY is technically based on the concept of the LCT 440 PURE and combines a 1-inch true condenser capsule with a fully analogue signal path. This makes the model particularly interesting for podcasts, streaming, content creation and vocal recording.

CONNECT audio interfaces for recording and streaming

Lewitts range now extends beyond microphones to include audio interfaces. CONNECT 2 is designed for compact recording and content creation setups and offers features including touch-based controls and automatic setup functions. CONNECT 6 provides a more extensive feature set, combining two USB-C connections with analogue and digital connectivity, routing, mixing and loopback. The CONNECT series therefore caters to musicians as well as podcasters, streamers and other content creators.

Which Lewitt product is right for your application?

For home recording and an accessible starting point, models such as the LCT 240 PRO or LCT 440 PURE are suitable options. If you need a choice of polar patterns, consider the LCT 441 FLEX. For stereo recordings of acoustic guitar, drums or other instruments, the LCT 040 MATCH and LCT 140 AIR are interesting options. Live vocalists can choose from dynamic and condenser solutions within the MTP series, while CONNECT 2 and CONNECT 6 add the necessary interface between the microphone setup and a computer or mobile device.
