This adaptable vocal and instrument microphone is a choice of the Best Studios and is regularly used by Great Artists. It’s also not a coincidence.
Like the AKG 414 or the NEUMANN U87, the STC-3D MK2 Lanen is one of the few static microphones on the market with a double 1-inch gold-plated diaphragm and a truly big 34mm capsule. Its fineness and neutrality make it a crucial reference in sound recording. The disparity between this and most other brands’ descriptions of a “wide” membrane for 16–19mm capsules is significant.
The STC-3D MK2 Lanen offers you a sound that exactly replicates the subtleties and warmth of the recorded source, in contrast to “entry-level” products that are sometimes too cold and small, and enables you to obtain effective recordings with a minimal investment.
