    The lct440 it's better for me. It's clear as a thousand dollar mic. It sound reminds me the neumann tlm 103.

    With a good room NT1 is better, in a bad room 440 as it gives less low frequencies when the proximity effect comes in.
    Other than that they are practically the same, a bit of an EQ and no difference at all.
    Pop filter on 440 does not work, NT1 as a complete package is better.
    Also, as a company I like Rode more as it feels more genuine with Lewitt having too much that down the throat propaganda on their website selling you bullshit, also the way they answer the emails when and if they answer is simply idiotic. Rode is a serious company.

      @@BojanBojovic thanks for taking the time to leave a comment and for sharing your thoughts. Both are great mics and in my opinion regardless of which one people go with, I’m sure they will be happy. Also, I’ve had the pleasure to work with both Rode and Lewitt and my experience has been extremely positive. I’ve been using their gear for years and that’s why I definitely recommend them on the channel.

    Thanks Nolan!!.
    This is Bijo from India. I have gone through a lots of channels including your's + chat GPT to find out the right mic, which I needed.
    We are looking for the mic, which is needed to sing + Keyboard at a home environment (The room, which is not 100% acoustically treated)
    After spending a lots of time with different mics, I consolidated with the below list.
    a) AKG P220
    b) Node NT1 SS
    c) Node Nt1 4th Gen
    d) Lewitt LCT 440 Pure.
    Again spending a lot of time, I decided to drop AKG P220 (Because of its self noise (16dB) and NT1 Signature series (Because of -ve reviews in different websites about its built quality, XLR pins quality and complaint rates). Now I am having only 2 in my list and those of are Node NT1 4th Gen and Lewitt LCT 440 Pure.
    Some of the reviews are saying, the 4th gen produces a sound that is too dark and slightly muffled, so we have to modify that while do the editing and the 5th gen has a greater presence of the a slight boost on high frequencies.
    As per their reviews, both rode N1 are very sensitive and not suitable for home uses where good acoustic treatment is almost impossible to obtain.
    So what is your opinion about these final 2 (Nt1 4Gen vs Lewitt LCT 440 Pure). Which one could be the best in my scenario. Any update would be greatly appreciated!!
    Once you get the time, kindly answer the same.
    With a lots of respect. Bijo from India.

      @@Bijo506 hey Bijo, thanks for the insightful comment. When it comes to music production (singing and recording instruments), I prefer the 440 pure because of its brighter sound.
      When it comes to voiceover work, I prefer the NT1 4th gen because of its more neutral sound.
      Keep in mind that both are condenser microphones and therefore will be sensitive to background noise. Not a problem though because I also don’t have an acoustically treated room and still create TH-cam content and work on music production.
      Here is a tutorial which I think might help you get best results from these mics: th-cam.com/video/L7KYjQBIH-w/w-d-xo.html and here is a plugin to remove room noise: th-cam.com/video/U4Xayicbfz0/w-d-xo.html Hope it helps! 😊

      Hi Nolan, Bought the LCT 440 from Dubai and received the item in India last week.. decision was right and we were having a XM8500 dynamic mic and upgrade was a perfect one... Connected via a Pyle mixer+ Audio interface+ Reaper.. still studying... Will share the results once we make the same. Once again thanks for your help and time to select the right one. Thanks 🙏.

    Which mic should i get in the $185-275 range
    AKG P420 ($185)
    AT2050 ($200),
    LCT 440 ($250)
    AT4040 ($275)
    I'm a standard - low tenor voice. Using ONLY for vocals to make music, not for instruments.

      @@VERSUXH I haven’t tested the AKG or AT mics so I can’t say anything about them. If you’re planning to record singing vocals, then I would go for the Lewitt LCT 440 Pure.
