Forbes reviews Lauten’s top-tier podcast mic and noise-rejecting condenser microphone
The Lauten Audio LS-208 microphone has been reviewed by Forbes for their Consumer Tech section.
A global media and publishing powerhouse, Forbes provides daily news to an audience of over 150 million across all its platforms, and is probably best known for its compelling lists (such as the influential ‘30 under 30‘, and regularly updated ‘World’s Billionaires List’).
“A beautifully made microphone with a feel of superb quality”
Stylistically similar to Lauten’s new Series Black V2 range, the LS-208 offers a unique blend of clarity, isolation and high-SPL capability for a condenser microphone, capable of withstanding up to 135 dBs without distorting.
Noting the sleek design and quality build of the LS-208, Senior Contributor Mark Sparrow describes Lauten’s front-address microphone as “beautifully made” with an “impeccable” finish.
Sonically versatile, the LS-208’s crisp vocal capturing abilities has made it popular with a number of YouTubers – as well as famous singers like Sam Ryder – and there’s no doubting its proficiency a fantastic high-end podcasting microphone.
Lauten’s recording studio influence is ever-present however, and the LS-208 also shines on instruments like drums and guitars, whilst its powerful 270˚off-axis rejection makes it ideal for multi-tracking with multiple musicians in a professional live recording setting.
“a versatile microphone that can work with almost any sound”
Wrapping up the review, Forbes’ Mark Sparrow writes “If you are on a budget and only have the money for one good microphone, the Lauten LS-208 is a superb choice bringing the best aspects of a front address dynamic design with the subtlety of a great condenser microphone. Recommended.”
Many thanks to Forbes and Mark Sparrow for the review!
