The LCT 440 Pure’s design provides ultra-low self-noise, eliminating any operational noise for the purest signal possible. It is also able to handle high sound pressure levels, making it great as an all-round microphone. Its robust and highly durable housing features a built-in grille, which not only reinforces the strength of the microphone but helps to improve the audio performance.

Trying to find things i don't like is hard as the LCT440 is a dynamite performer on everything i've put in front of it so far.The leap in quality of recorded sound has made a big impression upon me and i'm over the moon i made the choice of Lewitt.Both of these microphones are useful, versatile additions to any mic collection. Despite being the cheaper of the two, the LCT 240 Pro could easily find a role in many professional-mic collections, as the voicing will definitely suit some instruments more than others; while the LCT 440 Pure is a more neutral-sounding microphone that would make an excellent choice for anyone looking to just add one detailed, high-quality condenser to their collection – there’s nothing it won’t sound at least pretty good on, and it will make many things sound great. The equivalent input noise is given as 7dBA, which is very low, and my experience confirmed that noise is not an issue. If asked to describe the character of the mic I’d say it was natural sounding but on the airy side of neutral, which is no bad thing in pop-music work. Today we're looking specifically at the Lewitt LCT 440 Pure, which is its mid-range condenser aimed at a range of studio applications including vocals, speech and acoustic instruments, although Lewitt claims it has more than enough ability to be classed as a proper studio all-rounder. Elevated Sound Quality - The LCT 440 PURE - VIDA EDITION utilizes the same premium components and capsule technology found in LEWITT's prestigious models, ensuring that your recordings are characterized by a larger-than-life sound with remarkable depth and clarity. Each capsule is meticulously calibrated and tested to meet the highest quality standards, allowing you to capture your unique personality and the emotions you pour into your performances. LCT 440 pure is a beautiful modern designed large diagram condenser microphone with impressive electronic circuit and wonderful sounding 1 inch capsule, which can also be found in Lewitt hi-end range of microphones.

Frequency response is very smooth, with little emphasis on the upper region, which generally help the sources cut through the mix. A look at the frequency response graph shows that the mic exhibits the familiar large-diaphragm presence lift, in this instance reaching a peak in the region of 12kHz with a lesser peak at 4kHz, though the rise up into the presence region is quite gentle, which suggests the mic should sound more airy than aggressive. The low end only rolls off by around 2 to 3 dB at 20Hz, so for some applications a low-cut filter on the desk or preamp might be advised. At the high end the response doesn’t start to drop away until above 20kHz. Pure & Simple The Lewitt LCT 440 PURE’s name speaks for itself, providing a pure and clear sound, utilising premium-grade components to ensure the best possible audio performance. The LCT 440 Pure is ideal for capturing studio-grade vocal recordings as well as some instruments. Neumann has enjoyed a legendary reputation since the earliest days of the recording industry. While not a vintage microphone from the brand’s golden years, the TLM-102 large-diaphragm condenser microphone still fits in very well with the brand’s heritage both in quality and looks.

A Mic with a Cause - By choosing the LCT 440 PURE - VIDA EDITION, you're not only investing in your craft but also contributing to the protection of our planet. This microphone is part of the ongoing legacy of musicians supporting the "Rainforest of the Austrians" project in Costa Rica, where royalties, benefit concerts, and donations have played a crucial role in safeguarding nature and our Earth's atmosphere for over 30 years. However, if I had the choice between all 4… I’d go with the Lewitt. That’s partly because the TLM-103 has a high-frequency roll-off after 16 kHz. Looking through the grille on the two mics reveals a larger, one-inch capsule in the LCT 440 Pure, compared to the 0.67 inch capsule in the LCT 240 Pro, and while the accessories in each box also differ slightly, it’s this difference in the capsule that really sets the two mics apart. Capture every nuance of your instrument or voice in any recording scenario. Use it to record your vocals, acoustic instruments, guitar amplifiers, drums and percussion, and everything else. PURE feel That could come in handy if you’re recording instruments like the electric guitar, but I personally prefer the Lewitt LCT 440 PURE because it remains flat even in the top-end.
