A Great-sounding, Affordable SDC from Lewitt

If you’ve been looking for an affordable small-diaphragm condenser microphone to capture acoustic instruments, then the Lewitt LCT 040 MATCH should be on your short list. With its proprietary capsule and circuit design, the LCT 040 MATCH delivers a natural, well-balanced, beautifully detailed, and open rendition of virtually any source that can stand on its own in solo settings. Engineered in Austria, the mic has a pleasant, airy high end, with ample midrange presence and bottom-end oomph to punch through the mix. From the product’s name, you may have caught Lewitt’s not-to-subtle hint that these mics are intended to be used as a stereo pair — at this wallet-friendly price, we’d wholeheartedly agree!

Double your value

The LCT 040 MATCH is indeed available as a stereo pair — which in no way negates this mighty mite’s efficacy when used singly on acoustic guitar, drums, or really, any acoustic instrument. Its durable, lightweight aluminum housing and petite form factor make it ideal for capturing snare drums and other hard-to-reach sources in the studio and onstage. Even better: double your value with a stereo pair. They’re supremely cost-effective when used as drum overheads, room mics, or to capture a grand piano in glorious stereo. Get your Lewitt LCT 040 MATCH — or a stereo pair of them — from Sweetwater today!

Reviews

Nice & Smooth little guy
I put this little dude up on my hihat this morning for a quick demo song and with the right EQ & settings, WOW... it came out smooth and silky.
I A/B'd this with my old P170 it is replacing and the AKG was a bit more harsh and brittle compared to the Lewitt. I also played around with different EQs and settings and landed on the Waves Hybrid EQ for my taste for HHs.
All around a good choice for cymbals for the price point and it will stay parked on my hihats from now on. Can't wait to try it out on acoustic guitars next.
Music background: Drummer, Producer/Engineer
very smooth, eq's really well, very clean glassy top end: even great for voiceover
The self-noise is very inobtrusive for 20db... has a strange, extra-glossy top end without being harsh. I use it for voiceover with the foam nose AND a pop filter, at 4in. ...evens down the top end boost, drops the relative noise and background, and still has this intimate 'talking into your ear' effect. If your voice is up to it, this is very detailed.
On voice or strings, can be dramatic. Nice tool for the cabinet.
