Lewitt DTP 640 REX Dual-element kick drum microphone with switchable sound characteristics.

Two capsules for the best of your source.

We put two phase-aligned microphones in a single housing. The dynamic side ensures accurate attack reproduction of the kick drum, while the condenser element captures the drum's low end. Each element has a dedicated output.

This enables you to shape the kick drum sound in unique ways.

Cuts a good figure on your drums and bass.

With the DTP 640 REX, you get massive yet clear kick drum and bass recordings, in the studio and on stage.

The capsule is specifically designed to replicate low frequencies with precision and punch.

Hear and feel that kick.

Dynamic =//= Condenser Both elements with neutral frequency response.

Dynamic +//= Condenser Dynamic element boosts low frequencies; condenser stays neutral.

Dynamic +//+ Condenser Dynamic boosts the range of 4-6 kHz, condenser boosts low frequencies.

This mic is built to last.

The DTP 640 REX features a hardened hexagonal ruthenium-galvanized steel mesh grille and a solid die-cast metal body.
