Lewitt LCT 441 FLEX

The microphone and its kit are compact and distinct. I was personally quite happy with the quality of the sound - I use the unit as an all-purpose vocal microphone, both for singing and for speech.

2 or 3 years into almost daily use, however, the microphone starting "acting up" - e.g. it randomly stopped working from time to time, thus the lower quality rating. With the Thomann warranty, it was no trouble getting a replacement though. Hopefully it won't suffer from the same issue.

This was my first Lewitt mic purchase and I will probably purchase more in the future. So far I have used for the mic for multiple singers, male and female, acoustic guitar, and a mono drum overhead. This mic made them all sound good. Having the option of so many polar patterns is great, with the right polar pattern and mic placement you should be able to get a great recording on anything with this mic, I wish I had two for stereo recordings!

High quality building, very clear and versatile condenser microphone, excelent for a variety of applications. I use it for vocals and accoustic instruments and it worked wonderfully in combination with my Audient sound card.

Not had this for too long, so this is mostly first impressions, the sound is great, really nice and open sound great on my Voice and acoustic guitar. Having access to a variety of patterns is fantastic as i record a lot of live music so i often need to make use of figure 8 patterns.

I mainly use Dynamics, Ribbons and SDC's this is a welcome addition.

Looks great and feels very solid, I like that it looks individual and they haven't tried to look like a vintage mic

This is truly bang for your buck! I have used it to record acoustic guitar and vocals with great result!
