Nathan, thank you so much for such an incredible video. F is actually the true flat setting on Atlantis. It is essentially the capsule straight into the transformer, whereas Neutral and Gentle have their own signal paths with dedicated capacitor and resistor values. Funny enough, during development and testing with Fab Dupont, we weren't listening to or testing against the 87 at all. The "387" designation is related to capsule size (38mm) and transistor code (7) 😃
Wow! I didn’t know some of that! Fascinating! I’ll be adding that bit of info in the short that I’m making this week for this mic, and also in future videos where I’ll be bringing this beast out. Thanks so much! And thanks for being just the best company ever! Cheers!
No way! I've had an Atlantis for almost a year. I thought the Forward was mimic'ing the C800G this entire time. I had no idea that was the "flat" setting for this mic haha
1 year late to the party. As a singer, this mic is my door to heaven. Your videos are the equivalent of being by a cosy fire, with a glass of a fine red, while listening to Nat "King" Cole. You, sir, are one special human. Keep up with the wonderful work for us all to enjoy.
Woo hoo! Another Atlantis lover! I’m so glad you love it as much as I do! And thank you so much for those really awesome words, man! You certainly made my day! I even took a screenshot to save it. Thank you!
Your videos are like hidden gems just waiting to be discovered! The passion and creativity you put into each one truly shines through. Keep up the fantastic work - your content is incredible and deserves a wide audience. Can't wait to see where your journey takes you!
Hey thanks! And that’s awesome! So exciting! I think you’re going to absolutely love it and cherish it as I do. As in, save it first if ever there was a fire. 😉
I bought the LA320 on the back of your review video and honestly, I love that microphone. It has the richness and detail I’ve boon longing for. Now look what you’ve done, I’m going to have to buy this one too! This video is next level and deserves some kind of award! Incredible effort.
Hahaha. Sorry about that! Hahaha. And thanks so much! It was a lot to do, but I always feel good when it’s all done. And this mic deserves it! It’s my favorite of all time! Cheers, man!
This is an incredible sounding mic! I can't spring for one right now but I stuck around for the analysis and general entertainment. You have a great presentation style. Keep up the great work, and Happy Holidays and all that fun stuff.
Hey thanks so much! I hope one day you’ll get to try the Atlantis. It’ll blow your mind’s brain! Happy holidays! Thanks for the wonderful comment! Cheers!
Yeah. This is right up there with your best vids. That said, you sound great on this mic, man. Makes me want to get one someday. To my ear, it has a just-right touch of darker smoother than other high-end condensers. It also just looks inspiring. Hell of a job on this review, can’t wait to hear more from this sound.
Hey thanks, Jeff! I really appreciate that! Yes, it’s blew my mind! I’m going to be using it again and again in the future as the one to beat! Thanks for always watching, Jeff! Cheers!
Your review was fun, inspirational and spoken like a TRUE EQUIPMENT JUNKIE! I should know, having been buying "TOYS" since 1977! Just HAD to HAVE this mic or board or tape deck or guitar ETC. ETC. ETC.! Thinking back, there was no internet, so trade magazine subscriptions were mandatory! All continued just fine for decades until the Mrs. finally put her foot down and dragged me by the ear to an EJA meeting. (Equipment Junkies Anonymous) I went to the meetings for about a year but I must admit, I sneaked in a phone to the last meeting and happened to see your video. Seeing a TRUE E.J. drool over a new mic was just too much to take! I slipped out the back door, raced to my studio and ordered the Atlantis clandestinely! Will have it right after New Years and can't wait to...YES, PLAY WITH IT!!! Problem is, how the heck do ya HIDE such a beast!?! Well, I have a dinner reservation at an upscale restaurant planned and will let her know I fell off the wagon and it was YOUR fault! Nah Nah '-) GREAT VID MI AMIGO! Keep it up! (Hey, have a feeling we'll meet at one of those meetings soon) '-)
HAHAHAHAHA! Oh yes! I’m an EJ! It’s due to my Gear Acquisition Syndrome. Hahaha. You got the Atlantis! Wow. It’s my favorite mic of all time! Thanks so much for the laugh! Happy New Year! See you at the next meeting!
@@TheRecordist And a Happy New Year to You! Yes, let's hook up at the next EJA meeting. I'll smuggle in my new Tascam DX-40 in my raincoat pocket so we at least have something to play-with while listening to the horror stories of other Equipment Junkies. BTW......Took delivery of my new Lauten Atlantis today! Put it through the paces (VO only, Male Baritone) and I'll say this to you: Started in "Neutral." Loved it! Then switched to "Forward" and at that point, yes, I started drooling. (They should provide drool wipes in the box) (Haven't even tried Gentle yet) You were OH SO RIGHT! What a microphone! I've been through a lot of Sennheisers' and Neumanns' through decades of voice/production work and now, I have but two select words for my old "Freundes" across the pond............"Auf Wiedersehen!!!" (Insert group chants here: USA USA USA! Fade to black. '-) Cheers!
@ hahahaha. Awesome! I’m so glad you love the Atlantis! Gentle is the classic mic sound of the 40s and 50s. But forward is insane. I love that setting and I usually dislike bright mics. Congrats on owning what I consider one of the very best mics ever made!
I love you so much! Always a great video! Here I am learning how to make my audiotechnica 2035 sound good for obs. Was so proud to buy it lol oh and your adorable to the max! Thanks for the entertainment and info
Hey thanks, George! The 2035 isn’t a bad mic. Unless you have something as terrible as the Røde NT1A, you can usually make anything sound good with just a little EQ. It’s in the voice, room, skill - not just the mic. But a high end mic doesn’t hurt! Haha. Thanks again for the wonderful compliments! Cheers!
Simply an INCREDIBLE Video - not only high-class drama (!) but VERY informative on the mic! LA, you sold me this mic today over Neumann TLM-49 which - needless to say - I will have it in my mic locker as well :) Nathan - keep up with great work - these are pricey investments and viewers need brothers like Yaaa to put money where it belongs !!!! Lauten Audio, thanks for being so passionate and crafting such an amazing mic - seems almost like custom design!!!! Large Cos make very "general" mics !!!!
Woo hoo! Thanks very much! I tend to put a lot of effort into making videos when the products are amazeballs. And this is the best mic I’ve ever tried. Hands down, to the ground. I’m so glad Lauten Audio is getting your business. They’re really a great and caring little company. I’m a massive fan and probably always will be. You’ve made an excellent choice! Thanks again for the wonderful compliment! Cheers!
Best mic I’ve ever tried. And I’ve tried so very many in my life. I love this thing. Thanks for always watching and for being a member! I can’t thank you enough!
Love it! Going to grab one off sweetwater!! Also! Got an email from Lom, they gave you a shout out on the email!! So fun! You are the reason I bought my last Lom mic. Keep them coming!
Hey thanks so much! Honestly, the Atlantis is the best studio mic I’ve ever tried. So good. You’ll love it! And I just saw that email. That was very nice of Jonas to say! Thanks for the heads up! Cheers!
@@TheRecordist Yessir!! I would love to see your review of the Eden. Thanks for the compliment. I really appreciate your cinematic intro. I’m a filmmaker too so I know what it takes to film that. You definitely put some time in. I have a Blackmagic as well although I’m using a Sony a7iv for my latest stuff.
@@jacksp8de thanks so much! It means a lot when people know the time and effort that goes into doing these things. I’m also a budding filmmaker and want to make a short film in the coming year. Yes. I really love the BMPCC4K and I have it all rigged out. Prepping for a film. But I can never have enough lights. That’s costly. Perhaps Trent will send me the Eden soon! Your vids look fabulous! I subscribed! Cheers!
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Lauten Audio is my absolute favorite microphone brand that my studio relies on every single day. We have most of the classic holy grail legacy branded microphones. More and more I find myself begrudgingly setting up one of the vintage mics a vocalist insists on tracking with, because I know the Lauten would get me the perfect result effortlessly while basically being mix ready with only a minor tweak here and there. Sometimes I can spend an hour or more just trying to get a U67 or 251 to even roughly fit into place, and those are supposed to be the "OMG, I'm unworthy!" microphones. The Eden, Atlantis, and even the Clarion typically work the first time even when I just slap a mic up on a stand forgoing all of the extensive measuring and elaborate gain staging. Even their super affordable workhorse stuff like the LS and LA lineups have a role to play even in the most equipped studios. I love Lauten.
That was well said! I couldn’t agree more! When I mixed that little song, it was a breeze. It all just came together without much effort. This was a great comment! Cheers!
Love the video, great content, and breakdown of the mic. Highly thinking about purchasing. Just been trying to hear as many reviews, as I am stuck between this, the Clarion, and the Neumann TLM 103.
Hey thanks! If it were me, I would remove the TLM 103 from the running. Aside from the bragging rights of the Neumann name, the TLM 103 is exceptionally bright. It’s got some sibilance issues that will almost always need to be addressed in post. But that’s my own take. You may think differently. As far as the Clarion vs the Atlantis? Haha. Tough call! Both are amazing mics. I don’t think I Lauten makes a bad mic. Good luck!
Stellar video and review. I am hesitant in purchasing that lovely mic. I love what people say about the company, and the mic itself sounds really amazing. Price tag is very good for the top tier quality, but still quite pricy. As an amateur part-time musician here, maybe not a mic made for me 😅
Hey thanks! It’s my favorite mic of all time. It’s like three mics in one. Is it worth it? You’re damn right it is. But if you’re a hobbyist then perhaps not a needed item. If ever you get to the level where you just want the best, and for that best to last you forever, then this is the mic to get. I can’t recommend it enough. It’s one of those things you’ll lust after until you finally own one. Haha
@@TheRecordistThanks for answering. Yeah i thought as much, that's why i kinda still want to look into that investment. Wondering if it's got the correct specs for my vocals. If you ever got time, maybe listen to a snippet of one of my songs. "Stuck" or "Even Today". Would love to have your input. If that mic could help complement the mix at all
@@patricklaurin7272 hey Patrick. I just had a listen to Stuck and I have to say, great stuff! I 100% think the Atlantis would do your vocals proud - especially in the FORWARD setting. It’ll bring your top end into focus and the honking transformer in the mic will add some wonderful saturation. The truest answer is that anyone can make anything sound good with anything (within reason). You don’t NEED a $2000 mic to make your voice sound better. If you’re skilled with EQ or mixing, you can generally make anything sound good. Hell, Billy Eilish recorded Ocean Eyes on an Audio Technica AT2020, which is a $100 mic. But the reason the pros use expensive mics like the Atlantis is because far less needs to be done in post. It just sounds great right out of the box. These are handmade mics that are tuned to perfection. Now, that’s not to say that you shouldn’t need EQ with the Atlantis. Every mic needs EQ, but far less of it. Far less hunting for problem frequencies. Far fewer plugins to emulate saturations and natural compression and all that good stuff. So, bottom line, having the Atlantis won’t make your music any better. It won’t get you a hit song. It’ll just give you those goosebumps when you’re mixing, know what I mean? But seriously though, you’ve got great music!
@@TheRecordist Thanks a lot for taking the time! 🙏 Glad you enjoyed it! I'm using a Rode-NT1 right now but i felt like getting an upgrade. My diving into TLM102 led me to the Lautens
@@TheRecordist Much appreciated. I had just read the first line of your answer. Thanks for the nice comments on the music, and the great info you provided. It's food for thought. Keeping the NT-1 or opting for an upgrade. I enjoy using plugins, so mixing and mastering isn't the issue 😅 Having a quality source helps in keeping the authentic feel, and also sometimes the Rode might be a little too bright for my taste
Thank you, The Recordist! Because, "I closely bond with things.” And people. The thing is a microphone, which we did discover together as you claimed, and in not an insignificant manner. You discovered it first, and then I bought one, 3 months later after eating tuna fish sandwiches and selling dusty gear to afford it….while I returned several times to your playful virtuoso. I wouldn’t say virtue, because it’s a microphone, but I found your evaluation of the Atlantis at the vey least accurate, at the most honest, and abundantly entertaining. The FC-387 is in transit now like a new best friend I’ve never met. I have no delusions that this thing will cure my lack of talent or make me sound like my favorite crooner, yet I do love that thing. But the point of this post is the people part. You, my other friend I’ve never met, may never imagine, unless we poke out a text, the reach of your work, if we can call it work, perhaps a composition, which I shared with dozens of my friends who enjoyed it like so many of your silent viewers who appreciate your youtube presence which extends a far reach past just material kit. We see how true that is in your flood misfortuna which you graciously embraced. Bravo, for inspiring me to grab this mic to paint my wagon with recorded memories. Thank you!
Wow! What a wonderful and thoughtful comment! Thank you so much for taking the time to write that! I’m so happy you’re finally getting an Atlantis! Sorry you had to eat tuna for a few months. Haha. I hope you love it as much as I do! Thanks again for one of the best comments I’ve ever received! Cheers, Paul! ❤️
@@TheRecordist Thank you...for taking your time to reply back to me. Much appreciated - with heart. I have a worthy follow up to my microphone antidote which is a jolly good tribute to a Time Preservation and eulogy to a recorded voice community. Our FC-387 was procured, the room was amused - hit record - and memories were archived, happily. I was tad bit anxious with this precious Atlantis kit and when project was done, I found some comfort as it lay in wooden box and I returned to my practical SM57 for my daily driving with reckless abandon. I see you using same Shure mic in recent video. That's cool. Lay in wooden box is a metaphor, with my apology for the somber turn, our old friend and new voice talent for the Atlantis, finally lost his brave fight to Parkinson's with grace and humor. This is worthy of posting here - - knowing that the purpose of this space is to celebrate human record. Mindful of the joy in illustrious things procured to do the recording, but also to compliment your equally practical message to grab what ever kit is at hand. It's the doing and the playful trying to archive recorded voices that is abundantly entertaining. Cheers! I will find you to share some fun pics and thank you properly, Nathan. As for the gear...I've been an early fan and advocate for the SM7B setups I've delivered, but which have become a too familiar flavor to my ears. I enjoy the sound from a collection of nostalgic old microphones from the 70's. And I was on the path to invest in a microphone locker of modern favorites - but instead, for similar price range , I decided to end that journey and embrace the Atlantis due to its versatility and high build quality. I use Lauten Audio FC-387 in combination with the Universal Audio Apollo for spoken word mostly, and for some hopeful vocalist, and that kit is adored so much that I share that it with all my enthusiastic friends on tight budgets. It's wonderful! For live improve and random band acts, I equally enjoy more suitable Shure and Sennheiser hand held mics that take a beating.
@@paulherrick7600 oh man. What a great comment. And I am so very sorry to hear of your friend’s passing. You, sir, are a genuine Time Preservationist and I am so happy you found me! Thank you so much for sharing everything you have with me. I’m going to go reply to your wonderful email now. Thank you so much again! ❤️
It is "The One," but when you put it on Forward mode......it goes from listening to a great recording of a voice to feeling like you are right next to me. I mean, right here. Not coming through my Bose Soundlink II bluetooth speaker......but RIGHT HERE. Like.....should I reach around and push you away?? It's just a little close. Wow. It is so many mics in one, and at this quality, and at this price. Kudos on another hit song. Again, your lighting on yourself was excellent as well. I agree with you on why some mics are "still" the industry standard. One would think with modern day advances there would be even better mics, and this FC-387 proves that. Take a look at Curtis Judd's most recent video on a shotgun mic he feels dethrones the MKH-416. I know....I know.......blasphemy.
Thanks so much! I couldn’t believe it when I heard this mic. It was the best I’d ever tried. So that means it’s getting the full treatment! That’s really cool that it was right next to you! Woo hoo! I’ll check out Curtis Judd’s latest videos! Cheers, man!
Great video. I love your work :-) Any chance you can get your hands on the Lauten Audio Eden LT-386 and review that and compare it to this one? ... You might need to refinance your house again if the nice people at Lauten (hint hint) won't lend you one. Keep up the great work !
Oh hahaha. Lauten does better than that! They are easily one of the best companies I have ever dealt with. They’ll make sure I have whatever I need! I’ll try to get one and see what we can do!
@@TheRecordist he grabado un par de temas y suena increible pero quiero comprar un preamp, principalmente para el modo F, cual crees que le quede mejor ?
@@sand8286 ¡Eso es genial! ¡Felicidades! Mi preamplificador externo favorito para el Atlantis es el Hairball Audio Lola. Se puede comprar a bajo precio si lo construye usted mismo. También puedes comprarlo ya construido para ti. Otros preamplificadores que podrían funcionar son el Grace M101 (limpio), el preamplificador de un solo canal Great River también es excelente (saturado). Depende de su caso de uso.
I purchased my tlm103 cause everybody said it the next best thing to the u87 but this mic sound better,ima getting it next Friday thanks and selling my tlm103
Fantastic! You won’t be disappointed! It’s really the best mic I’ve ever had. It’s got a transformer inside, which the U87 also has. It’s gives it this grit. The “TLM” in the TLM 103 name means “transformerless microphone”. I think you’re really going to like the Atlantis!
Hey there. I do have a link in my description, but since I did this video, it seems they may not be selling the cables anymore. I’m not actually sure about that. If you find out, let me know. It’s www.v2cables.com. I think you need to email them to order and they custom make them. But, like I said, I’m unsure if they’re still in business.
@@TheRecordist Yeah, I have been to that website. They don't list any dealers, or give prices. just an email address. I guess I'll try emailing them. Oh another question while I;m here, have you tried the Lauten Ckarion/ If so, do you think there is a setting on the Atlantis that might be close enough to the Clarion to use them together in a Blumlien configuration?
@ hey. Well, the clarion is the one Lauten mic I haven’t tried. It is next on my list to grab. But, for the Blumlein technique, they shouldn’t be that different to pull it off. Perhaps in the Neutral position.
Hey there. Well, I wouldn’t say it’s similar to the 416. The 416 has its own sound. And also a totally different kind of mic. The Atlantis is much smoother.
Saw your review fully - YES - I'd love to give my hard earned money to the Lauten Audio family and their team in CA for their passion and hard work :-) Ordering it tomorrow !!!!!!!!!!!!!
So, the questions that beg to be asked, are, when you take this microphone to bed with you at night, does it have its own pillow? Do you set it on omni to make sure it is picking up your snoring? And more personally, and you are not expected to answer this, but is it between you and your wife or is it just you and the Atlantis alone?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Great comment! It’s got its own pillow, I set it on figure 8 for the snoring, and it’s always been the Atlantis and I. My wife is the side-chick. Hahahahaha.
Hey there! I prefer them the exact same. That’s because the Towsend is a modeling mic and I can get all sorts of amazing sounds with it. The Atlantis is my favorite mic ever made just as it is. I would say that if I had to choose between both of them and the Townsend was just itself without modeling, I would pick the Atlantis. But the applications for the Townsend are immeasurable. So I will put them both at the same level of awesomeness. I know it’s not a clear cut answer but that’s how I feel! Cheers!
It is greatly helpful! I love the concept the sphere can do stereo. If the Atlantis could do that, I think I would probably opt for that. I own the LA320 already so I am already a Lauten Audio fan. My only concerns with the sphere are 1) it takes both my inputs on the Apollo twin, 2) software may eventually die out for support, and 3) it sounding potentially “cheaper” than other similar-priced mics. In greater detail… 1) I do a fair amount of vocals + guitar at the same time. Having that flexibility would go away unless I used my other two mics whenever using that application. Would kinda be a buzz kill for “live” recording. 2) I worry the software will get phased out in the next 10 years. $1500 is a lot of money. With the Atlantis, there would be no concern of using the mic for much longer than that. 3) I do not have the ability to test these mics so all I have for reference is RUclips demos and reviews. It is difficult for me to discern who is getting a check to say positive feedback. With that being said, my intuition is they are both fantastic mics and I would be happy with either sound-wise. Some reviews note the mic sounds thinner than what it is trying to emulate, but maybe they are splitting hairs. I’ve never used $5k+ mics, so I don’t have a frame of reference. Your response gave me assurance the sphere is actually a great mic.
@@tobiasjansen9117 hi Tobias. Maybe I’m just too small of a channel but I have never had anyone even OFFER me money to say positive things about a product. I HAVE had just two shady companies try to tell me what to say or tell me to run the review by them first before publishing, and I politely said “no”. I wonder what it would feel like to be offered a bribe? Haha. Probably awesome. But I couldn’t take it. I wouldn’t even sleep at night. I was really poor for a lot of years and so many people depend on honest reviews before they spend their little bits of money. I could never do it. That’s not to say that I wouldn’t do sponsors on my channel, because if that’s selling out, then I’ll sell out all day long! Haha. But even sponsors haven’t approached me. As far as the Sphere, let me tell you something. That mic, as it is, with no emulations, is a dynamite mic. Even plugging just the front capsule in to one channel. It’s really a great mic as it is. But the emulations are fantastic. And the options available to you after you record are just endless. It’s worth the money. Also, I don’t think UA will ever discontinue the software. They would have a million very angry customers very quickly. I was a little bummed when UA bought Townsend, but then I realized, they’ve been around for more than 50 years and are the leading audio company in the world. Better they continue it than an unknown company (Townsend Labs) who might go bankrupt. BUT, the Atlantis is a real transformer mic (has an iron transformer in it) just like a Neumann U87. It makes this 3D sound. Really amazing. And it’ll last forever. Both mics are massive. So be prepared to deal with a lot of weight. I had to upgrade my mic stand to a huge studio one with a 20 pound base and wheels. My Hercules stands were no match for either of the mics. The Atlantis has a body resonance if you tap it. The Townsend (DLX) does not. But I recorded a lot with it and never had any issues. I’m a huge fan of both and I don’t think I could live without either. Haha. So sorry to not be able to pick one. That’s why I always say that the Atlantis is my favorite non-modeling mic. Good luck, man!
I was about to buy the LA320 as I’ve been contempting for too long on buying a great mic for Pop vocals or Acoustic tracks. I have read and seen reviews of so many mics I’m going a bit crazy!! Probably a stupid question but would you recommend this Mic or would the LA320 be fine for what I need? I have an SM7B for my Podcast but I’m tempted to find a one does all mic. I also looked at the DLX but I love my Apogee Symphony and I want simplicity. Any advice would be appreciated !! And you are a funny guy btw, seriously :-)
Yep. You’re right! It’s wicked heavy. For me, I have the K&M 21430 Studio mic stand. It’s way more expensive than it has any right to be. It’s huge and heavy and has wheels. For heavy mics, it best to just save up, pay the stupid price once, and then have it for life.
Hahaha. Thanks! You have the Eden? That’s a mic I’m looking to test out soon! The Atlantis is definitely amazing and super special. The Eden is their flagship mic. How do you like it?
@@DailyRiot hahaha. Would you look at that! We both have the same problem! I’m getting a Lauten Audio Eden next. Because I’m awful. But it doesn’t just stop at mics for me. Oh no. I just bought a Grace Design M101 preamp because I HAD to have the cleanest and quietest outboard preamp in the world. It’s GAS and I don’t wanna stop.
Nathan, thank you so much for such an incredible video. F is actually the true flat setting on Atlantis. It is essentially the capsule straight into the transformer, whereas Neutral and Gentle have their own signal paths with dedicated capacitor and resistor values. Funny enough, during development and testing with Fab Dupont, we weren't listening to or testing against the 87 at all. The "387" designation is related to capsule size (38mm) and transistor code (7) 😃
Wow! I didn’t know some of that! Fascinating! I’ll be adding that bit of info in the short that I’m making this week for this mic, and also in future videos where I’ll be bringing this beast out.
Thanks so much! And thanks for being just the best company ever! Cheers!
No way! I've had an Atlantis for almost a year. I thought the Forward was mimic'ing the C800G this entire time. I had no idea that was the "flat" setting for this mic haha
This is probably the greatest produced microphone review ever created… Amazing stuff!
Hahaha. Thanks, Dan! When I play with an awesome product, I get all kinds of ideas and then I just have to do them. Haha. Cheers!
This was probably the best review I’ve ever seen.
Oh. Haha. Thank you very much! A lot of effort goes into these reviews, and the Atlantis was weeks in the making. I really appreciate you saying that!

I'll smuggle in my new Tascam DX-40 in my raincoat pocket so we at least have something to play-with while listening to the horror stories of other Equipment Junkies. BTW......Took delivery of my new Lauten Atlantis today! Put it through the paces (VO only, Male Baritone) and I'll say this to you: Started in "Neutral." Loved it! Then switched to "Forward" and at that point, yes, I started drooling. (They should provide drool wipes in the box) (Haven't even tried Gentle yet) You were OH SO RIGHT! What a microphone! I've been through a lot of Sennheisers' and Neumanns' through decades of voice/production work and now, I have but two select words for my old "Freundes" across the pond............"Auf Wiedersehen!!!" (Insert group chants here: USA USA USA! Fade to black. '-) Cheers!
@ hahahaha. Awesome!
I’m so glad you love the Atlantis! Gentle is the classic mic sound of the 40s and 50s. But forward is insane. I love that setting and I usually dislike bright mics.
Congrats on owning what I consider one of the very best mics ever made!
You truly are a gift to humanity!
Oh. Hahaha. Well I don’t know about that, but I sure do appreciate the sentiment! Cheers, David!
I love you so much! Always a great video! Here I am learning how to make my audiotechnica 2035 sound good for obs. Was so proud to buy it lol oh and your adorable to the max! Thanks for the entertainment and info
Hey thanks, George! The 2035 isn’t a bad mic. Unless you have something as terrible as the Røde NT1A, you can usually make anything sound good with just a little EQ. It’s in the voice, room, skill - not just the mic. But a high end mic doesn’t hurt! Haha.
Thanks again for the wonderful compliments! Cheers!
Great Video as usual, Great review, I am certainly going to look this mic up.
Man the forward setting on that mic is just bliss!!! I’ve never heard a mic with that much clarity and smoothness on the top end.
Isn’t it just mind-blowing?? Seriously. What a mic! It’s my favorite mic of all time.
I think lewit 440 is pretty close to this f setting
Simply an INCREDIBLE Video - not only high-class drama (!) but VERY informative on the mic! LA, you sold me this mic today over Neumann TLM-49 which - needless to say - I will have it in my mic locker as well :) Nathan - keep up with great work - these are pricey investments and viewers need brothers like Yaaa to put money where it belongs !!!! Lauten Audio, thanks for being so passionate and crafting such an amazing mic - seems almost like custom design!!!! Large Cos make very "general" mics !!!!
Woo hoo! Thanks very much! I tend to put a lot of effort into making videos when the products are amazeballs. And this is the best mic I’ve ever tried. Hands down, to the ground.
I’m so glad Lauten Audio is getting your business. They’re really a great and caring little company. I’m a massive fan and probably always will be. You’ve made an excellent choice!
Thanks again for the wonderful compliment! Cheers!
They are so delicious. Thank you. I look forward Ro every new video.
Best mic I’ve ever tried. And I’ve tried so very many in my life. I love this thing. Thanks for always watching and for being a member! I can’t thank you enough!
Love it! Going to grab one off sweetwater!! Also! Got an email from Lom, they gave you a shout out on the email!! So fun! You are the reason I bought my last Lom mic. Keep them coming!
Hey thanks so much! Honestly, the Atlantis is the best studio mic I’ve ever tried. So good. You’ll love it!
And I just saw that email. That was very nice of Jonas to say! Thanks for the heads up! Cheers!
This mic sounds AMAZING. 🤯🤯🤯
I know eh??? It’s crazy good! Cheers!
My favorite mic and I love the company. Trent is the GOAT. I want that Eden tho!!!
I couldn’t agree more! And Trent is tops! Love that guy!
The Eden! Oh man. That would be an incredible review. By the way, great channel!
@@TheRecordist Yessir!! I would love to see your review of the Eden. Thanks for the compliment. I really appreciate your cinematic intro. I’m a filmmaker too so I know what it takes to film that. You definitely put some time in.
I have a Blackmagic as well although I’m using a Sony a7iv for my latest stuff.
@@jacksp8de thanks so much! It means a lot when people know the time and effort that goes into doing these things. I’m also a budding filmmaker and want to make a short film in the coming year.
Yes. I really love the BMPCC4K and I have it all rigged out. Prepping for a film. But I can never have enough lights. That’s costly.
Perhaps Trent will send me the Eden soon!
Your vids look fabulous! I subscribed! Cheers!
@@TheRecordist Nice can’t wait to see it. I feel you on the lights lol. Thanks for the sub! I appreciate it
I've said it before and I'll say it again, Lauten Audio is my absolute favorite microphone brand that my studio relies on every single day. We have most of the classic holy grail legacy branded microphones. More and more I find myself begrudgingly setting up one of the vintage mics a vocalist insists on tracking with, because I know the Lauten would get me the perfect result effortlessly while basically being mix ready with only a minor tweak here and there. Sometimes I can spend an hour or more just trying to get a U67 or 251 to even roughly fit into place, and those are supposed to be the "OMG, I'm unworthy!" microphones. The Eden, Atlantis, and even the Clarion typically work the first time even when I just slap a mic up on a stand forgoing all of the extensive measuring and elaborate gain staging. Even their super affordable workhorse stuff like the LS and LA lineups have a role to play even in the most equipped studios.
I love Lauten.
That was well said! I couldn’t agree more! When I mixed that little song, it was a breeze. It all just came together without much effort. This was a great comment! Cheers!
Love the video, great content, and breakdown of the mic. Highly thinking about purchasing. Just been trying to hear as many reviews, as I am stuck between this, the Clarion, and the Neumann TLM 103.
Hey thanks! If it were me, I would remove the TLM 103 from the running. Aside from the bragging rights of the Neumann name, the TLM 103 is exceptionally bright. It’s got some sibilance issues that will almost always need to be addressed in post. But that’s my own take. You may think differently.
As far as the Clarion vs the Atlantis? Haha. Tough call! Both are amazing mics. I don’t think I Lauten makes a bad mic.
Good luck!
@@TheRecordist thank you for your feedback!
I own one, it's pure magic. Like 3 microphones in one, This is definitely a keeper. Great Review btw
It’s amazing eh? Totally agreed! And thanks so much! Cheers!
You made me lough quite often in he last 30 min. Thanks for that xD
Haha. Woo hoo! Cheers!
A very good song and so is the sound, well done!
Hey thanks! And yes, the sound is incredible! My favorite LDC mic of all time!
Love this channel 😂🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hahaha. Thanks very much!
I just started researching this Mic and My favorite TimePreservation Society posted about it
It’s amazing, eh?? And thank you so much for watching my little videos! Cheers!
Love the forward setting!
The forward setting is where it’s at! Agreed! I love that setting - and I don’t like bright mics. Great job on this mic!
Awesome video
Thanks, Glen! I worried it was too long. But man that mic deserves it!
Great video brother 😂🔥🔥 loved everything about it
Hey thanks so much, Ben!
Great video. Loved the intro. Keep it up
Hey thanks so much! Cheers!
Hey Air Horn, or whatever your name is, that friggin' mic is BOOOOOM! Wowza!
Hahahahahaha. Air horn! Hahahahahahaha!
Hey Mark! It blew my socks off, man! Wow!
Air Horn 😂😂 I’ve been laughing it this comment much longer than I should have been 😂😂
@@officialWWM hahahaa. Mark is hilarious. Hahaha
Holy smoke intro !!!❤❤❤
Hahaha. Thanks! Cheers! ❤️
Stellar video and review. I am hesitant in purchasing that lovely mic. I love what people say about the company, and the mic itself sounds really amazing. Price tag is very good for the top tier quality, but still quite pricy. As an amateur part-time musician here, maybe not a mic made for me 😅
Hey thanks! It’s my favorite mic of all time. It’s like three mics in one. Is it worth it? You’re damn right it is. But if you’re a hobbyist then perhaps not a needed item.
If ever you get to the level where you just want the best, and for that best to last you forever, then this is the mic to get. I can’t recommend it enough.
It’s one of those things you’ll lust after until you finally own one. Haha
@@TheRecordistThanks for answering. Yeah i thought as much, that's why i kinda still want to look into that investment. Wondering if it's got the correct specs for my vocals. If you ever got time, maybe listen to a snippet of one of my songs. "Stuck" or "Even Today". Would love to have your input. If that mic could help complement the mix at all
@@patricklaurin7272 hey Patrick. I just had a listen to Stuck and I have to say, great stuff!
I 100% think the Atlantis would do your vocals proud - especially in the FORWARD setting. It’ll bring your top end into focus and the honking transformer in the mic will add some wonderful saturation.
The truest answer is that anyone can make anything sound good with anything (within reason). You don’t NEED a $2000 mic to make your voice sound better. If you’re skilled with EQ or mixing, you can generally make anything sound good. Hell, Billy Eilish recorded Ocean Eyes on an Audio Technica AT2020, which is a $100 mic.
But the reason the pros use expensive mics like the Atlantis is because far less needs to be done in post. It just sounds great right out of the box. These are handmade mics that are tuned to perfection.
Now, that’s not to say that you shouldn’t need EQ with the Atlantis. Every mic needs EQ, but far less of it. Far less hunting for problem frequencies. Far fewer plugins to emulate saturations and natural compression and all that good stuff.
So, bottom line, having the Atlantis won’t make your music any better. It won’t get you a hit song. It’ll just give you those goosebumps when you’re mixing, know what I mean?
But seriously though, you’ve got great music!
@@TheRecordist Thanks a lot for taking the time! 🙏 Glad you enjoyed it! I'm using a Rode-NT1 right now but i felt like getting an upgrade. My diving into TLM102 led me to the Lautens
@@TheRecordist Much appreciated. I had just read the first line of your answer. Thanks for the nice comments on the music, and the great info you provided. It's food for thought. Keeping the NT-1 or opting for an upgrade. I enjoy using plugins, so mixing and mastering isn't the issue 😅 Having a quality source helps in keeping the authentic feel, and also sometimes the Rode might be a little too bright for my taste
Thank you, The Recordist! Because, "I closely bond with things.” And people. The thing is a microphone, which we did discover together as you claimed, and in not an insignificant manner. You discovered it first, and then I bought one, 3 months later after eating tuna fish sandwiches and selling dusty gear to afford it….while I returned several times to your playful virtuoso. I wouldn’t say virtue, because it’s a microphone, but I found your evaluation of the Atlantis at the vey least accurate, at the most honest, and abundantly entertaining. The FC-387 is in transit now like a new best friend I’ve never met. I have no delusions that this thing will cure my lack of talent or make me sound like my favorite crooner, yet I do love that thing.
But the point of this post is the people part. You, my other friend I’ve never met, may never imagine, unless we poke out a text, the reach of your work, if we can call it work, perhaps a composition, which I shared with dozens of my friends who enjoyed it like so many of your silent viewers who appreciate your youtube presence which extends a far reach past just material kit. We see how true that is in your flood misfortuna which you graciously embraced.
Bravo, for inspiring me to grab this mic to paint my wagon with recorded memories. Thank you!
Wow! What a wonderful and thoughtful comment! Thank you so much for taking the time to write that! I’m so happy you’re finally getting an Atlantis! Sorry you had to eat tuna for a few months. Haha. I hope you love it as much as I do!
Thanks again for one of the best comments I’ve ever received! Cheers, Paul! ❤️
@@TheRecordist Thank you...for taking your time to reply back to me. Much appreciated - with heart. I have a worthy follow up to my microphone antidote which is a jolly good tribute to a Time Preservation and eulogy to a recorded voice community. Our FC-387 was procured, the room was amused - hit record - and memories were archived, happily. I was tad bit anxious with this precious Atlantis kit and when project was done, I found some comfort as it lay in wooden box and I returned to my practical SM57 for my daily driving with reckless abandon. I see you using same Shure mic in recent video. That's cool.
Lay in wooden box is a metaphor, with my apology for the somber turn, our old friend and new voice talent for the Atlantis, finally lost his brave fight to Parkinson's with grace and humor. This is worthy of posting here - - knowing that the purpose of this space is to celebrate human record.
Mindful of the joy in illustrious things procured to do the recording, but also to compliment your equally practical message to grab what ever kit is at hand. It's the doing and the playful trying to archive recorded voices that is abundantly entertaining. Cheers! I will find you to share some fun pics and thank you properly, Nathan.
As for the gear...I've been an early fan and advocate for the SM7B setups I've delivered, but which have become a too familiar flavor to my ears. I enjoy the sound from a collection of nostalgic old microphones from the 70's. And I was on the path to invest in a microphone locker of modern favorites - but instead, for similar price range , I decided to end that journey and embrace the Atlantis due to its versatility and high build quality. I use Lauten Audio FC-387 in combination with the Universal Audio Apollo for spoken word mostly, and for some hopeful vocalist, and that kit is adored so much that I share that it with all my enthusiastic friends on tight budgets. It's wonderful! For live improve and random band acts, I equally enjoy more suitable Shure and Sennheiser hand held mics that take a beating.
@@paulherrick7600 oh man. What a great comment. And I am so very sorry to hear of your friend’s passing.
You, sir, are a genuine Time Preservationist and I am so happy you found me!
Thank you so much for sharing everything you have with me. I’m going to go reply to your wonderful email now.
Thank you so much again! ❤️
It is "The One," but when you put it on Forward mode......it goes from listening to a great recording of a voice to feeling like you are right next to me. I mean, right here. Not coming through my Bose Soundlink II bluetooth speaker......but RIGHT HERE. Like.....should I reach around and push you away?? It's just a little close. Wow. It is so many mics in one, and at this quality, and at this price. Kudos on another hit song. Again, your lighting on yourself was excellent as well.
I agree with you on why some mics are "still" the industry standard. One would think with modern day advances there would be even better mics, and this FC-387 proves that. Take a look at Curtis Judd's most recent video on a shotgun mic he feels dethrones the MKH-416. I know....I know.......blasphemy.
Thanks so much! I couldn’t believe it when I heard this mic. It was the best I’d ever tried. So that means it’s getting the full treatment!
That’s really cool that it was right next to you! Woo hoo!
I’ll check out Curtis Judd’s latest videos! Cheers, man!
I concur most vehemently!
Right on! ✊🏻🤓
Great video. I love your work :-) Any chance you can get your hands on the Lauten Audio Eden LT-386 and review that and compare it to this one? ... You might need to refinance your house again if the nice people at Lauten (hint hint) won't lend you one.
Keep up the great work !
Oh hahaha. Lauten does better than that! They are easily one of the best companies I have ever dealt with. They’ll make sure I have whatever I need! I’ll try to get one and see what we can do!
You've already convinced me, I'll buy the Atlantis
Excellent choice! I think you’ll love it!
@@TheRecordist he grabado un par de temas y suena increible pero quiero comprar un preamp, principalmente para el modo F, cual crees que le quede mejor ?
@@sand8286 ¡Eso es genial! ¡Felicidades! Mi preamplificador externo favorito para el Atlantis es el Hairball Audio Lola. Se puede comprar a bajo precio si lo construye usted mismo. También puedes comprarlo ya construido para ti. Otros preamplificadores que podrían funcionar son el Grace M101 (limpio), el preamplificador de un solo canal Great River también es excelente (saturado). Depende de su caso de uso.
@@TheRecordistmuchas gracias por responder, buscaré estas tres opciones, feliz año nuevo
On the figure 8 I noticed the back sounded a little brighter than the front
I purchased my tlm103 cause everybody said it the next best thing to the u87 but this mic sound better,ima getting it next Friday thanks and selling my tlm103
Fantastic! You won’t be disappointed! It’s really the best mic I’ve ever had. It’s got a transformer inside, which the U87 also has. It’s gives it this grit. The “TLM” in the TLM 103 name means “transformerless microphone”.
I think you’re really going to like the Atlantis!
Did you end up getting this mic?
Where did you get the Vermouth 2ndborn cable? They don't have them for sale anywhere.
Hey there. I do have a link in my description, but since I did this video, it seems they may not be selling the cables anymore. I’m not actually sure about that. If you find out, let me know.
It’s www.v2cables.com. I think you need to email them to order and they custom make them. But, like I said, I’m unsure if they’re still in business.
@@TheRecordist Yeah, I have been to that website. They don't list any dealers, or give prices. just an email address. I guess I'll try emailing them. Oh another question while I;m here, have you tried the Lauten Ckarion/ If so, do you think there is a setting on the Atlantis that might be close enough to the Clarion to use them together in a Blumlien configuration?
@ hey. Well, the clarion is the one Lauten mic I haven’t tried. It is next on my list to grab. But, for the Blumlein technique, they shouldn’t be that different to pull it off. Perhaps in the Neutral position.
did you also try the Eden mic?
Funny you say that! The Eden is on its way to me literally right now. I’m to receive it by the end of the week!
Forward is great, maybe similar to the 416?
Hey there. Well, I wouldn’t say it’s similar to the 416. The 416 has its own sound. And also a totally different kind of mic. The Atlantis is much smoother.
Saw your review fully - YES - I'd love to give my hard earned money to the Lauten Audio family and their team in CA for their passion and hard work :-) Ordering it tomorrow !!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s great news! I think you’re going to love it! I hope you come back and tell me what you think! Cheers and happy holidays!
surprised with the 1.5k views only
I’m a small channel and the Atlantis is a big mic! Thanks for watching!
What is the pop filter you use?
That’s a Stedman PS-101 Custom “Dorothy’s Ruby Slippers” Edition. It’s basically like a smaller Stedman XL, but red. Great eye!

Me Bro
Hahahaha. You know it! Hahahah! Cheers!
So, the questions that beg to be asked, are, when you take this microphone to bed with you at night, does it have its own pillow? Do you set it on omni to make sure it is picking up your snoring? And more personally, and you are not expected to answer this, but is it between you and your wife or is it just you and the Atlantis alone?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Great comment!
It’s got its own pillow, I set it on figure 8 for the snoring, and it’s always been the Atlantis and I. My wife is the side-chick. Hahahahaha.
Hey buddy, what pop filter exactly are you using in this video? I love the red color:)
Hey. I’m using a Stedman PS101 custom “Dorothy’s Ruby Slippers”. I know they’ve got some custom colors there. I really love it.
Thanks so much for the reply!
Cheers. Also I’m going to buy this mic!
@@topfragrances woo hoo! Let me know what you think!
Do you prefer the Atlantis over the Townsend labs? Happy to hear as much as you are willing to type!
Hey there! I prefer them the exact same. That’s because the Towsend is a modeling mic and I can get all sorts of amazing sounds with it. The Atlantis is my favorite mic ever made just as it is.
I would say that if I had to choose between both of them and the Townsend was just itself without modeling, I would pick the Atlantis. But the applications for the Townsend are immeasurable. So I will put them both at the same level of awesomeness.
I know it’s not a clear cut answer but that’s how I feel!
Cheers!
It is greatly helpful! I love the concept the sphere can do stereo. If the Atlantis could do that, I think I would probably opt for that. I own the LA320 already so I am already a Lauten Audio fan.
My only concerns with the sphere are 1) it takes both my inputs on the Apollo twin, 2) software may eventually die out for support, and 3) it sounding potentially “cheaper” than other similar-priced mics. In greater detail…
1) I do a fair amount of vocals + guitar at the same time. Having that flexibility would go away unless I used my other two mics whenever using that application. Would kinda be a buzz kill for “live” recording.
2) I worry the software will get phased out in the next 10 years. $1500 is a lot of money. With the Atlantis, there would be no concern of using the mic for much longer than that.
3) I do not have the ability to test these mics so all I have for reference is RUclips demos and reviews. It is difficult for me to discern who is getting a check to say positive feedback. With that being said, my intuition is they are both fantastic mics and I would be happy with either sound-wise. Some reviews note the mic sounds thinner than what it is trying to emulate, but maybe they are splitting hairs. I’ve never used $5k+ mics, so I don’t have a frame of reference. Your response gave me assurance the sphere is actually a great mic.
@@tobiasjansen9117 hi Tobias.
Maybe I’m just too small of a channel but I have never had anyone even OFFER me money to say positive things about a product. I HAVE had just two shady companies try to tell me what to say or tell me to run the review by them first before publishing, and I politely said “no”.
I wonder what it would feel like to be offered a bribe? Haha. Probably awesome. But I couldn’t take it. I wouldn’t even sleep at night. I was really poor for a lot of years and so many people depend on honest reviews before they spend their little bits of money. I could never do it. That’s not to say that I wouldn’t do sponsors on my channel, because if that’s selling out, then I’ll sell out all day long! Haha. But even sponsors haven’t approached me.
As far as the Sphere, let me tell you something. That mic, as it is, with no emulations, is a dynamite mic. Even plugging just the front capsule in to one channel. It’s really a great mic as it is. But the emulations are fantastic. And the options available to you after you record are just endless. It’s worth the money.
Also, I don’t think UA will ever discontinue the software. They would have a million very angry customers very quickly. I was a little bummed when UA bought Townsend, but then I realized, they’ve been around for more than 50 years and are the leading audio company in the world. Better they continue it than an unknown company (Townsend Labs) who might go bankrupt.
BUT, the Atlantis is a real transformer mic (has an iron transformer in it) just like a Neumann U87. It makes this 3D sound. Really amazing. And it’ll last forever.
Both mics are massive. So be prepared to deal with a lot of weight. I had to upgrade my mic stand to a huge studio one with a 20 pound base and wheels. My Hercules stands were no match for either of the mics.
The Atlantis has a body resonance if you tap it. The Townsend (DLX) does not. But I recorded a lot with it and never had any issues.
I’m a huge fan of both and I don’t think I could live without either. Haha. So sorry to not be able to pick one. That’s why I always say that the Atlantis is my favorite non-modeling mic.
Good luck, man!
I think the sphere is the way to go for me! Thank you again for your detailed replies.
@@tobiasjansen9117 no problem! Cheers!
I was about to buy the LA320 as I’ve been contempting for too long on buying a great mic for Pop vocals or Acoustic tracks. I have read and seen reviews of so many mics I’m going a bit crazy!! Probably a stupid question but would you recommend this Mic or would the LA320 be fine for what I need? I have an SM7B for my Podcast but I’m tempted to find a one does all mic. I also looked at the DLX but I love my Apogee Symphony and I want simplicity. Any advice would be appreciated !! And you are a funny guy btw, seriously :-)
❤
Cheers!
You came awfully close there to calling it "My Prrrreeecsiouss!"
I KNOW! What a total miss! I had ONE job!
this mic is a BRICK what stand would u recommend
Yep. You’re right! It’s wicked heavy. For me, I have the K&M 21430 Studio mic stand. It’s way more expensive than it has any right to be. It’s huge and heavy and has wheels. For heavy mics, it best to just save up, pay the stupid price once, and then have it for life.
@@TheRecordist I’m getting it better safe than sorry🫱🏼🫲🏻
I have an Eden 386 and this video makes me want to sell it and get a 387 instead… 😂
Hahaha. Thanks! You have the Eden? That’s a mic I’m looking to test out soon!
The Atlantis is definitely amazing and super special. The Eden is their flagship mic. How do you like it?
It's actually probably over 2000$ with tax
Likely so. Depending on where you are in the world. It’s not a cheap mic.
