LEWITT LCT 440 PURE — Studio Condenser Microphone with Pure Sound

The LEWITT LCT 440 PURE is a 1" true condenser cardioid microphone that delivers record-ready sound without pads, filters, or pattern switches. At its heart is a 3-micron gold-sputtered Mylar diaphragm inside a zinc die-cast housing, giving this large-diaphragm condenser the ability to capture vocals and instruments with depth and clarity. LEWITT's prestige capsule technology is distilled into a compact, camera-friendly body, earning the model a "Best new microphone" award from Future Music and a 4.9/5 user rating on Thomann.

What Sets the LCT 440 PURE Apart

Most studio condensers in its class lack the high-end capsule and circuit technology used here—features normally reserved for LEWITT's prestige models. The magnetic pop filter integrates with the shockmount and doesn’t block the open front of the capsule, letting the mic move close to any sound source. Guitar Interactive calls it a workhorse that outperforms its price.

1" True Condenser Capsule — Cardioid Precision

Built around a 1" externally polarized true condenser capsule with a 3-micron gold-sputtered Mylar diaphragm, the LCT 440 PURE responds to fast transients with natural accuracy. Isolation from room reflections and bleed during multi-mic sessions is achieved through the fixed cardioid polar pattern’s effective rear rejection.

• Polar Pattern: Cardioid — focused front pickup with effective rear rejection for clean studio capture
• Capsule Type: 1" externally polarized true condenser — large-diaphragm design with 3-micron gold-sputtered Mylar diaphragm
• Greater low-end warmth results from the true large-diaphragm surface area of 25.4 mm

Frequency Range, Self-Noise & Dynamic Range

Spanning the full audible spectrum from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, this microphone pairs a 7 dB(A) self-noise floor with a 140 dB max SPL and 133 dB dynamic range. Delicate acoustic guitar and close-miked guitar cabinets are handled without distortion. Sound on Sound notes speech sounds clear and present but not harsh, while subtle off-axis coloration ensures reflections never distract from the source.

• Frequency Range: 20 Hz – 20 kHz — full-spectrum response for vocals and instruments
• Self-Noise: 7 dB(A) — ultra-quiet floor on par with the quietest studio condensers
• Max SPL: 140 dB SPL (0.5% THD) — handles loud guitar cabs, drums, and brass without breaking up
• With a dynamic range of 133 dB(A), you get wide headroom from whisper-quiet detail to full-volume peaks

Zinc Die-Cast Body, Phantom Power & Included Accessories

Machined from zinc die cast, the enclosure provides a solid, road-ready feel in a compact 138 x 52 x 36 mm body that weighs 310 g. Standard 48 V phantom power is used, and a gold-plated 3-pin XLR connects for reliable signal transfer. Included in the package: shockmount, magnetic pop filter, foam windscreen, and leatherette transport bag.

• Microphone Enclosure: Zinc die cast — durable, camera-friendly rectangular housing
• Dimensions & Weight: 138 x 52 x 36 mm, 310 g — compact form factor that fits standard shockmounts
• Connector & Power: Gold-plated 3-pin XLR with 48 V ± 4 V phantom — industry-standard balanced output
• For mobile producers, the included transport bag keeps your microphone and accessories safe on the move.

Ideal for Home Studios, Vocalists, and Content Creators

Home-studio producers, vocalists, podcasters, and voice-over artists seeking a single microphone for vocals, acoustic guitar, piano, and amplified sources will find this model delivers in every role. Its ultra-low self-noise rewards singers in quieter rooms, while the 140 dB max SPL is ready for guitar cabinets and drum overheads. The included shockmount, magnetic pop filter, and windscreen mean there's no need to budget for extras, and the camera-friendly rectangular body fits video shoots as well as studio sessions.
