I really liked the Lewitt's clarity in the upper mids, pre-EQ! It made the kit feel more alive, more character to each of the cymbals, more snap to the snare, and more of a live room feel too.
It's beer o'clock! Also as I am about to buy some Lewitt mics this video is highly welcome! Already super impressed with what I've seen online but this will be awesome 👌🏻
I have been very much enjoying the results I've been getting using a matching pair of Lewitt LCT 440 PURE condenser microphones, as close mics on my guitar cabinets. 🤘
@James Williams ruclips.net/video/FWRwx9asP08/видео.html The LCT 540 S from Lewitt has a Pad switch for both -6db and -12db for recording loud sound sources. 😊
Neumann's are definitely the alpha here. Your EQ helped the Lewitts buy it can only get so close. Would love to hear how the TLM102's or Warm 47jr's compare to the Lewitts too!
Considering the massive price difference, I wouldn't call the Neumanns "Alpha". At least not in this setting. If all it takes is a few well placed EQ moves to make the Lewitts almost sound like the Neumanns, then that is competition in my book.
I just got a 441 Flex with the Lewitt promotion that is going on. Great to see a video doing a comparison supporting the purchase. I did not have a lot of cash laying around and this mic seemed like a great deal, so I went for it. Wanted something versatile for vocals, overheads, and guitar cab. Wouldn't mind seeing a video of the 441 Flex used on guitar cabs.
I cannot believe there is a thousand dollar difference between these two mics. I actually like the clarity of the Lewitt in the upper mids. Sounds like a telefunken mic.
Lewitt mics are some of the best value for money products available. I have a Lewitt 440 pure, and I swear by it. It's great on vocals and acoustic guitar.
I know what you mean about the tiny condenser. Reminds me of the sound of the band of ants on the old cartoons....eeee iiiiiyyaaa eee eee eh ah oonch ooonch 😂😂😂
Neumann are smoother in that mid/high mid area, you can hear that thwack nasal-y increase when you switch. Both are still extremely good usable and nothing a simple EQ can’t fix. Room sounds great!
To my ear the Neumanns still sound more expensive and more like "signal integrity", and they definitely have a little more "beef". I feel like you have set the low-mid EQ boost on the Lewitts a little too high. With more "low body" EQed into the Lewitts they might be on par (beef-wise). Due to the higher sound integrity I would always prefer the Neumanns over the Lewitts - if I HAD both of them lying around. Since I don't, and since I don't have 3000 € to spend, I might prefer the Lewitts :-)
I'd be really interested in shootout with Thomann's T-Bone brand, or Warm Audio. My friend lent me a T-Bone SC-1100 and it sounded surprisingly good on vocals.
awesome video Kristian. I would love it if you do another video with this concept but for guitar mics! I know you've done a lot of speaker shootouts that have been awesome but a shoot out of affordable vs expensive mics used for heavy guitars would make my day. cheers!
I'm a total fan of the Lewitt mics! ❤️ The LCT 440felx is really a great mic for overhead or room mic. I like to use it with an lct540s zero for room sound. Killer kombie !! 🤗 the 440felx on the outside left and right about 3-4m distance to the drum and the 540s in the middle about 5-8 meters away from the drum. Gives a super hopeful and deep sound. And for overhead myself I use LCT 340c. Snare an MTP 440dm and bottom LCT 240pro. Hihat also LCT 240pro. But also loved the Tom mic from lewitt DTP 340 TT! the sound is just great at Tom's But also the kick drum mic DTP340rex and DTP 640 rex tip mic. For my taste, I think better than shure beta52 or audix. But as I said, it's a matter of taste! 😉
Hey, some SDCs you might actually like on overheads are the Austrian Audio CC8s. I bought a pair of those for live drum overheads and found that they're a darker mic that sounds exceptionally smooth. No harshness or brittleness at all! I'll probably use them in the studio, as well... As smooth as they are on top, they'll take EQ well.
Hey Kristian, I think your OH sound is incredibly good. Very detailed and clear. Your position is, if I see it correctly, in front of the drum kit. Is there a video of you explaining the OH position? Do you measure the distance to the SD? What height is your starting point? It usually looks like 1.8 m to 2 m. How far do the OHs reach into the set? I would appreciate an answer. Greetings from Hamburg.
Hey man! I'm working on a drum course for my upcoming academy that will explain all this very detailed. I'm usually above the main crashes and yes, I do measure the distance to the snare.
I really appreciate this review! Your self and Glen really made me reconsider what microphones I am going to put into my studio. We have been using shore for years and we are making the official jump and investment. Maybe in time we will be able to afford the 1040. We look forward to using this in our session coming up. Thank you for the confidence and making this investment. I did shoot the guys at Lewitt a message and mentioned your name for the Credit reference as well. Thank you for your amazing thorough videos as well. You are the go to tutorial for my engineers
Kohle , mil gracias por tu trabajo tan bien logrado , estoy por comprar el Lewitt 540s , para mi over head , ya que tengo platillos oscuros en su mayoría , espero que mi mezcladora Yamaha mg10 xu ...pueda captar el sonido del micrófono......jijijij....quiero grabar mi bateria con dos micrófonos en el piso tengo un Shure Beta 91a...uso principal es live Streaming.....!!!
To my ear, the Neumann's had ever so slightly more articulation/depth to them compared to the EQ'd Lewitts. I was damn surprised at how close they became after the first 2k-4k EQ dip though. Really imperceptible unless you A-B them, both sounded fantastic in the mix :)
There is a difference and the Neumans do sound better. But after the EQ it is so close that most people either won't care at all or at least not spend 2000$ more.
cool video! I love the sound of those lewitts and how bright they keep the snare. so much detail in the high mids! I use a Lewitt 640 Rex on my kick and it helps my old Ludwig set sound as good as it can. definitely my favorite kick hole mic. slightly better than the Audix and Sennheiser, which are my other favs.
The Neumanns demonstrated why they're $1000 more! In solo, the Lewitts sounded harsh and "spitty" with especially the crash cymbals and open hi-hat; the Neumanns had no harshness at all!
@@KohleAudioKult Oh, for sure! In the mix it was very hard to tell the difference. The average listener would never know, making these a great alternative for those who can't afford the TLM-107. (But this makes me want the TLM-107s even more, too! haha)
Hey Kohle! Du kannst auch den EQ-Match Modus von dem Fabfilter EQ nutzen um wirklich exakt alle Differenzen zwischen Lewitt und Neumann zu sehen :) Klar, das Ohr macht natürlich immer die besten Entscheidungen, aber für Analysen ist es auf jeden Fall ein cooles Feature :)
i could imagine the difference after eq when added with the multitrack could also be phase related due to using higher filter slopes for the eq correction. but i almost never use the higher filter slopes for the bell shape, so i don't have any experience with those...
Hi Krisitan: I would like if you can make a comparison between the Neumann and the LCT 440 PURE since both microphones have fixed cardioid patterns, and the 440 should sound the same as the 441 but with a single capsule.
Love this. I feel like some people use expensive gear instead of learning to listen, because its really hard to learn to listen. Have you ever auditioned the CAD M179 large diaphragm condenser? I felt exactly the same way about it as you do on the Lewitts here. Sounds very good, great quality, switchable pickup pattern, and just a few small EQ moves away from most anything you'd want to do with it.
The Neumann seem like they have a bit more "air" in the top end and 2 to 4.5k is def smoother. I have both mics. The Lewits are def more pronounced in the 2 to 5 range. But as you showed a bit of eq can tame that. I still prefer the "air" that the Neumann have.
Have you tried the sE electronics RNR1 Rupert Neve ribbon mic?, on overheads(I use a version from Glynn Jones positioning), and the on guitar amps unbelievable, compared to other mics at the same level I’ve had mixes where I can have the the guitar 6dB quieter in the mix with the same clarity with the same loudness, quite an amazing effect
@@KohleAudioKult you should, once you’ve tried it you won’t want to give it back, I’ve got a nice live Konzert desk mix with Eric Steckler, used it for his guitars, could let you hear it if you give me a way to get it to you, could Dropbox or so
I still really like the video you did with the ribbon mics as overheads. All the sharpness and wash just evaporated. SDC and LDC always have a harshness to them I'm eq'ing out in post (Custom K Darks all the way around). I'd get a pair of ribbons but my mouth breathing drummer would knock them over and then I'd be f*cked. We need a bigger studio space ............
I wonder wether the same applies to vocals... you might have to check harsh frequencies and S sounds with the lewitt but might get a more crispy and direct vocal sound than with the Neumann... maybe you'll try that one day
i’ve never tried large diaphragm condensers as OHs... i should try that one day i pretty much always use some 451s... and lots of sm57... yeah i’m pretty boring
i have noted that your toms and snare track are set in stereo mode. Can you please tell me why? I usually record in mono and set individual pan of any piece of the drum kit.
Super Video. Hätte nicht gedacht dass der Unterschied so minimal ist. Frage: Wie machst du das in Cubase um im "Nicht-Solo" Betrieb zwischen dem Lewitt und Neumann Track hin und her zu wechseln? Du fährst da immer mit der Maus über beide drüber.

I don't know what your level of production is or how much you're willing to spend, but $800-1500 on a set of ribbons will be in your locker for a lifetime provided you care for them.
