Lauten Audio SNARE MIC - Capturing the Essence of Snare Drums

Snare drums are the heartbeat of music, conveying emotions and energy like no other instrument. Unfortunately, they're often overlooked or poorly recorded. Enter Snare Mic, the purpose-built FET condenser microphone designed exclusively for snare drums.

Precision Sound Capture

Snare Mic ensures that every nuance of your snare drum's impact, tone, and dynamics is faithfully reproduced with sample-quality sound. Its frequency response, SPL handling, and ultra-high dynamic range deliver chest-pounding fundamental frequencies, tangible timbre, and explosively musical top-end impact.

Minimal Bleed, Maximum Impact

With up to 28dB of off-axis sound rejection, Snare Mic captures the true essence of your snare drum while minimizing unwanted bleed. This means clear, mix-ready sonics with optimal phase coherence straight from the microphone.

Effortless Placement, Powerful Performance

Measuring just 4.2 inches, Snare Mic fits seamlessly into even the most crowded drum kits. Its vibration-resistant capsule makes it ideal for both stand and rim-mounted applications, ensuring consistent performance in any setting.

Built to Last

Crafted with a solid brass headframe and a mildew-resistant dust filter, Snare Mic is built to withstand the rigors of stage and studio environments, protecting it from stick hits, dust, and debris.

Purpose-Built Design

Snare Mic is not just an instrument mic repurposed for snare drums; it's specifically engineered to deliver the best possible snare drum sound in every situation, regardless of player, snare type, or location.

Lauten Lineage

Drawing on Lauten Audio's award-winning Synergy Series microphones, Snare Mic features hand-tuned capsules and dual-bias circuitry for unparalleled sound quality and performance.

Onboard Sound Shaping

Snare Mic's onboard filters offer precise control over your sound. From maximizing stick crack to reducing cymbal bleed, these filters allow you to tailor your snare drum sound with ease.
