Lauten’s latest makes crafting the perfect bass drum sound a breeze.
Joining the Tom Mic and Snare Mic, and sharing their refreshingly logical naming convention, the Kick Mic promises to deliver instant attack, clarity and defined low-end power while avoiding common pitfalls such as bleed and low-frequency build-up.
These audio examples accompany our Eden microphone review from SOS August 2025 issue.
Lauten’s flagship Eden LT‑386 model is much more versatile than your average valve microphone.
Miking drums is a notoriously fiddly affair. Have Lauten Audio cracked it?
Lauten Audio’s latest release aims to combine the isolation and flexibility of a premium mic stand with the convenience and portability of a rim-mounted clip system, while also eliminating the common pitfalls of both.
Lauten’s classy new capacitor microphones are purpose‑made for toms and snare drums.
Employing a newly designed supercardioid capsule and offering up to 28dB of off-axis rejection, the Tom Mic has been designed to deliver crisp-sounding results while keeping cymbal bleed to a minimum.
Lauten Audio’s new video sees the company head to Studio 606, where a collection of their mics were put to work on a drum recording session with Trevor Lawrence Jr. & Alex Pasco.
