LEWITT microphones

LEWITT rocked the National Association of Music Merchants’ 2017 show. As one of the biggest trade shows in the music industry, NAMM draws nearly 100,000 attendees every year. It’s always our favorite event, a great opportunity to show off our new microphones and catch up with our customers, endorsers, journalists and distributors!

Our booth was jam-packed with familiar faces throughout the week, with visits from Gloria Gaynor, Chris Lord-Alge, Percy Bady, Walk Off The Earth, and countless others! Killer!

We also felt very honored when Chris Lord-Alge checked out the LCT 640 TS! He was quite impressed when he found out that the mic allows you to change the polar pattern in postproduction.

April Henry took the opportunity to test the new LCT 240 PRO, an extremely versatile cardioid condenser microphone designed for everyone who’s looking to take the next step towards professional recording. She simply fell in love with this mic, she said, and she also showed us her new, very arty music video – where, of course, she’d recorded the vocals with her LEWITT!

Herman Li, guitarist, songwriter and producer of the Grammy-nominated metal band DragonForce, also dropped by – and our product manager Moritz and marketing head Steffen couldn’t resist this chance to have their picture taken with him!

It’s always a pleasure to mingle with producers, established artists, and up-and-coming musicians all in one place.

And now, we’re already counting the days till NAMM 2018 – but until then, we hope you enjoyed our look back at this year’s show. If you weren’t able to attend, then take a moment to check out all the new products we announced there!
