{"product_id":"lauten-audio-la-320-v2-369641","title":"LA-320 V2","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA Tube Microphone Designed for Today's Signal Chains\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe LA-320 embraces a modern approach to tube microphones: capturing the richness, body, and smoothness typical of classic models without requiring a vintage processing chain to sound right. Lauten Audio designed this model around a proprietary capsule and a hand-soldered tube circuit path to deliver \u003cstrong\u003emusical coloration\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003esubtle compression\u003c\/strong\u003e directly at the input of your preamp or interface. The result: a studio microphone that delivers character while remaining easy to integrate into a current setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIdeal Uses for the LA-320\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith its cardioid polar pattern and ability to handle high SPL levels, the LA-320 is an excellent choice for \u003cstrong\u003evocals\u003c\/strong\u003e (singing, spoken voice, premium podcasting) as well as \u003cstrong\u003einstruments\u003c\/strong\u003e that require both texture and definition: acoustic guitar, soft overheads, distant guitar amp miking, or room\/ambience capture. The dual voicing is especially useful in production: choose a rounder base to place the voice \"up front\" without harshness, or a more open option to gain articulation and presence in the mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTwo Tonalities, Filters, and Tube Behavior: A \"Mix-Ready\" Recording\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTone Switch: From Velvet to Detail\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe LA-320's \"two-tone\" concept allows you to adapt the microphone's signature to the song and timbre without changing microphones or multiple takes. The warmer position emphasizes body and a more \"vintage\" feel, while the modern option favors clarity and presence to cut through dense arrangements.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eIntegrated Filters to Control the Source\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe high-pass filter (120 Hz) helps clean up vibrations, plosives, and mic stand noise. The low-pass filter (12 kHz) softens excessive brightness, tames sibilance, or makes a take more even before compression and EQ.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDedicated Power Supply and Studio Connectivity\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eLike any true tube microphone, the LA-320 operates with an included external power supply. The mic-to-PSU connection uses a 5-pin XLR for secure signal transmission, then the 3-pin XLR output connects conventionally to your preamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e20 Hz - 20 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCategory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003estudio microphone\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirectivity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003ecardioid\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eXLR\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTube\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eECC83\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePolar pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003ecardioid\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-pass filter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eflat \/ 120 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLow-pass filter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eflat \/ 12 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDynamic range\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eminimum 120 dB\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMax SPL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e130 dB at 0.5% THD @ 1,000 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eImpedance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u0026lt; 200 ohms\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-noise level\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u0026lt; 17 dB-A\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e14 mV\/Pa (@ 1 kHz, 74 dB SPL)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnectors\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e5-pin XLR (PSU to microphone) and 3-pin XLR (PSU to preamp)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePower supply\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eincluded external PSU (switchable 100 V to 240 V)\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Lauten Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54357348090131,"sku":"369641","price":665.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/0db03d84f4537ca3de0efacc31d3fcea5c3ba491_LA_LA320_V2.jpg?v=1788181746","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/lauten-audio-la-320-v2-369641","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
