EXTRA LARGE DIAPHRAGM TUBE CONDENSER
The Eden is the pinnacle of Lauten Audio’s microphone designs -- three distinct tube microphones packed into a single, hand-finished brass enclosure and topped with a nickel-plated crown. This custom-crafted work of art is equipped with Lauten Audio’s exclusive 38mm capsule, Multi-voicing® circuitry and harmonic sound shaping for an unparalleled breadth of timbres that makes picking the perfect microphone as easy as flipping a switch. From smoky and warm to modern and open, the Eden offers a vast expanse of effortlessly accessible sonic possibilities unlike any other microphone.
MULTI VOICING ®
CHANGE MICROPHONES WITHOUT CHANGING MICROPHONES
FORWARD is bold, present and modern, but never harsh.
NEUTRAL is smooth and earthy with a natural balancing of sibilant sounds.
GENTLE is dark and sultry with a warm vintage feel, ideal for taming bright or abrasive sound sources.
ONE OF A KIND CAPSULE
CUSTOM-CRAFTED 38MM CAPSULE
The capsule of a microphone captures music’s most meaningful moments and converts them into electricity with relentlessly unforgiving results. Our precision-crafted 38mm capsule is one of the largest in the world -- a one of a kind super-transducer tuned by hand to capture the spirit, soul and wonder of a performance with unprecedented authenticity and realism.
SELECTABLE POLAR PATTERNS
EACH SELECTION DETERMINES WHAT THE ATLANTIS HEARS
FIGURE-8 captures sound equally from the front and back of the microphone for a more open, natural recording.
CARDIOID captures sound from the front of the microphone only. This is the most commonly used polar pattern for recording vocals with minimal room reflections.
OMNIDIRECTIONAL captures sound equally from all sides of the microphone for authentic, "in-the-room" instrument and vocal recordings.
PREMIUM COMPONENTS
AN ELEGANT, FLEXIBLE, AND MIX-READY SOUND THAT RIVALS HISTORY'S MOST COVETED TUBE MICROPHONES
In addition to the warmth and color derived from an aged EF806 tube, the Eden is also equipped with a custom wound, US-made output transformer that puts the finishing touches on every sound that passes through its copper windings.
HARMONIC SOUND SHAPING
THREE-POSITION FILTER SECTION THAT INTERACTS WITH MULTI-VOICING
OFF Allows the full frequency spectrum of a sound to be passed directly to the Multi-Voicing circuitry for maximum density and harmonic saturation.
SOFT Gently reduces murkiness and any overbearing low frequencies. This is powerful when used with the Gentle selection to attain a truly vintage microphone experience.
HARD Shifts the timbre of the microphone towards the mid-range, adding focus, accentuation and articulation and is ideal for use with the Forward selection for modern pop and R&B vocals.
