Lauten AudioTOM MIC

Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Purpose-built for rack and floor tom recording, the Lauten Audio Tom Mic is a side-address FET condenser with a supercardioid pattern and selectable analog filtering. Its response is voiced around tom attack and body, with cited shaping near 1–2kHz, 3kHz, and 5kHz. Flat, 5kHz, and 12kHz high-cut choices, plus 80Hz and 140Hz low cuts, give an engineer practical ways to refine bright overtones, crosstalk, or low-frequency rumble at the microphone. The articulating swivel mount supports positioning around the kit.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Close-miking rack or floor toms while reducing pickup from surrounding cymbals and drums.
- Studio or stage drum setups that need switchable high-cut and low-cut filtering.
- Sessions requiring a tom microphone with an articulating swivel mount for placement around the kit.

Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Flat / 5kHz / 12kHz low-pass filter
These settings offer different amounts of high-frequency reduction for bright toms or crosstalk.
Detail 03
Flat / 80Hz / 140Hz high-pass filter
The low-cut settings remove excess low-frequency rumble.
Detail 04
Requires 48V phantom power
Provide phantom power from the connected recording or live-sound equipment.
