MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE
The LA-120’s onboard sound-shaping eliminates the need for mic swaps and wasted time. Jump from crisp to smooth to ribbon-like sonics at the flip of a switch.
CUSTOM CAPSULES
Our hand-tuned 17mm capsules provide transparent, lifelike sound with a musical blend of transient response and natural compression. This makes the LA-120 an ideal choice for use on drum overheads, percussion, acoustic guitar, and piano.
OMNI & CARDIOID POLAR PATTERNS
Cardioid capsules will focus each microphone’s attention directly to where it is pointed, reducing the overall sound of a room in a recording.
Omnidirectional capsules allow the sound of a room or other off-axis instrumentation to be captured naturally and with uncolored authenticity.
TRANSFORMERLESS
TRANSPARENCY
The LA-120 signal path is hand-populated with high-resolution, low-distortion polypropylene capacitors and resistors, built around a US-made JFET for articulate, uncolored, and high-impact performance.
HIGH SPL ASSISTANCE (OPTIONAL)
We designed the LA-120s to excel in numerous applications, but you may want to use them on something extra loud. The optional in-line pads allow the LA-120s dynamic range and depth to be fully utilized on high SPL sound sources.
