You Are Ready For This

You've been recording for a while, you're starting to learn the sonic difference between different microphones, and now you're ready to enter the world of vacuum tubes. It's time for you to let the Series Black LA-320 lead the way into that vintage vacuum tube tone you've heard all about. Designed for budding recordists, the LA-320 is the best entry into professional quality recordings with a tube microphone. We've made it easy to use and affordable for anyone to get serious about their sound.

Independent Filters Clean Your Tone

The high and low cut filters make solving common problems in home, basement or bedroom recording environments easy. The LA-320 features two independent filters located on the microphone and easy to engage via switches located on the front of the microphone. If the room or source is boomy, or you have low-end rumble from outside sources like road noise, furnace, air conditioner etc., turn on the low-cut filter and eliminate the problem. Use the high-cut to roll-off above 12k and tame a bright room or a bright source. What's even cooler is you can use both filters at the same time resolving many problems before the recording hits your hard drive.

Incredible Price Performance Ratio

Inside the LA-320 is a 1 inch pressure gradient true-condenser capsule and dual-triode vacuum tube inspired by those used in classic German microphones. Don't be fooled by the affordability, the LA-320 features high quality components often found in much more expensive microphones.
