Win yourself a fabulous Atlantis FC‑387 multi‑voicing FET studio microphone from Lauten Audio, worth £1419$1999.
The Lauten Audio Atlantis FC‑387 is essentially three distinct vocal microphones packed into a single, hand‑finished brass and ceramic‑coated enclosure. Developed in close collaboration with Grammy Award‑winning Producer/Engineer Fab Dupont, the Atlantis makes picking the right microphone for any voice as easy as flipping a switch. From modern, tight and bright to smoky vintage velvet, the Atlantis offers an analogue abundance of mix-ready sounds in a single microphone.
Three unique signal paths are readily available for effortless and instant sonic selection. The Gentle selection is warm with a vintage feel, ideal for taming bright or abrasive sound sources. The Neutral selection is classy and balanced with a smooth top-end, perfect for acoustic instruments. The Forward selection is bold, present and modern, without ever being harsh — the quintessential sound of modern pop, hip-hop and R&B.

The capsule of a microphone captures music’s most meaningful moments and converts them into electricity with unforgiving results. Lauten’s precision-crafted 38mm capsule is an original design, and one of the largest microphone capsules in the world — tuned by hand, Lauten say, to capture “the spirit, soul and wonder of a performance with unprecedented authenticity and realism”.
Extending the versatility of the Atlantis is a three-position gain switch. Set to 0dB, the output of the Atlantis is at its default output operating level. The +10dB option is ideal for use with quiet sound sources and consumer-grade audio interfaces where more character from the microphone itself is desired. The -10dB selection is useful when more colour and saturation from a high-end preamp is desired, or when paired with very loud sounds.
Each new Atlantis is designed and crafted in Silicon Valley, California, to last a lifetime — and this month, we’re giving you the chance to win one!
