Endless possibilities - Next-gen multipattern microphone.

• The LCT 640 TS works as a traditional multi-pattern microphone, a stereo microphone, and a mic that can change the polar pattern after the fact with its Dual Output Mode. The 1" true condenser capsule and high-end specifications guarantee precise recordings.
• Whatever you record with the LCT 640 TS will sound incredibly detailed. Your vocals sound larger-than-life, your instruments full and vibrant. 

Revolutionary Dual Output Mode - What's the Dual Output Mode?

• It changes the way we think about the recording process. To give you more freedom, the LCT 640 TS features a Dual Output Mode. Engage it, and you'll send the front and the back of the capsule's diaphragm to two individual outputs. 
• This allows for stereo recording and changing the polar pattern after the fact. 
• Do this in your DAW with our POLARIZER plugin. Sounds complicated? It isn’t! 

POLARIZER plugin to create any pattern in the mix - You can adjust the polar pattern after the fact.

• You can conveniently change and fine-tune your material recorded via Dual Output Mode.
• We created a plugin, called the POLARIZER. It allows to set the polar pattern dynamically.
• Now you can add or subtract room sound in post-production during mixing. By automating the POLARIZER, you can even create unique mixes and effects.

Stereo capabilities - Perfectly-in-phase stereo recording, with a single mic.

• You can use a single LCT 640 TS to record in stereo by switching to Dual Output Mode.
• Just point the mic sideways to the source and adapt the stereo width in the mix.
