Lewitt LCT 140 Air Matched Pair

Each microphone in the pair is precisely matched to ensure balanced stereo imaging, which is important when capturing room ambience or spaced stereo techniques. The cardioid polar pattern helps keep your recording focused while rejecting unwanted noise. Built with a durable yet lightweight aluminium body, they?re easy to position and transport; ideal for mobile setups or tight recording spaces. Accessories including clips, windshields and a transport bag are included to get you started straight out of the box.

The sound shaping possibilities it provides via the onboard switches allow you to audition multiple tones to find a capture that's perfect for you. The onboard filter automatically removes undesirable low-end, whilst the pad switch allows you to get close-mic recordings of instruments with high SPL levels, free from distortion. Coming complete with a clip, pouch and windscreen, the LCT 140 AIR will be a welcomed addition to the microphone locker of any recordist.

Flexible sound with two distinct voicings

The LCT 140 AIR offers two tonal settings to suit different recording needs. The AIR mode brings a bright, open sound that works well for fast sessions or when you want a more produced character straight away. The FLAT mode, on the other hand, gives you a natural, uncoloured tone that’s perfect for acoustic recordings or when you want full control during mixing. Switching between them is simple and can save you valuable setup time in the studio or on stage.

Clear transient detail for lifelike recordings

When recording instruments like drums or acoustic guitar, it’s important to capture the full detail of each hit or strum. The LCT 140 AIR is designed to reproduce these fast transients clearly, keeping the dynamic feel of the performance intact. This gives your recordings a punchy but warm tone that doesn’t lose clarity, making the mic especially useful for expressive playing styles or detailed arrangements.

Matched stereo pair for accurate imaging

Each microphone in this set is stereo matched at the factory, ensuring a consistent and balanced sound when used together. This matters most in spaced stereo or XY setups where phase alignment and tonal consistency between mics are essential. The result is a more natural and immersive sound, whether you're capturing a full drum kit or the ambient character of a room. With this matched pair, you can achieve professional-level recordings without complicated post-processing or corrections.

Lightweight build for easy positioning

Built from CNC-machined aluminium, the LCT 140 AIR is both strong and easy to handle. Its low weight makes it ideal for mounting on delicate stands or placing in tight recording setups. This design is especially useful when recording overheads or angled mic placements that would otherwise cause strain or sag. Combined with the included clip and windscreen, setup is quick and reliable across different sessions.
