    Thank you Wytse for this very cool mic-building video! I made the right decision buying the LCT 440 Pure. Very well build and incredible sound for the pricetag. Even compared to much more expensive studio-classics. One of the best pro-audio channels!!

    honestly i skipped most of the microphone building part of the video as i don't plan on building a mic myself, but it was just really interesting to see the atmosphere in which these awesome little gadges are being built. and it seems like your selfmade mic actually sounds good. nice!

    Dear Wytse! Your content is soooo unbelievably good. You treat us with a huge variety of content that is perfect for every artist in every stage of their profession. After you talked about your nails - which look great - I wondered what more personal content coming from you could be. And this to me is really personal: You seem so excited, you travelled somewhere new, met people as excited about music as yourself and even got something nice out of it. While your typical content is great and refreshing by itself, this video really nails (no pun intended) your personality, your interest in music and the almost random nature of your content. Bravo! I am excited for what's to come in the future!

    Wow amazing video - the Lewitt technical guy is so good at explaining how it all works. One follow-up question on this, is, what makes the build difference between different microphones? Now that I see all the parts involved, I don't see the answer as being as straightforward anymore. This was very educational, hopefully you can do more videos with Lewitt.

I got "Finality" running when watching overly dynamic movies, or "ToneBoosters Morphit" headphone correction so I'm always listening to almost linear headphones. When I now switch on a studio emulation in my daw under the monitoring section it really makes a big difference. Or does it? What do you think? Nice mic btw ;)

The resin based 3d printers are known for producing very smooth prints according to a 3d printing channel that I occasionally watch (Makers Muse from Australia who makes 3d printed puzzles for parrots). It appears that resin printers are quite fiddly.

    Personally i recommend nitrile gloves. Good tight fit around you're hand and gives more flexibility(feels like your normal hands really) i can see from a mile away those are vinyl gloves and oo god never touched them when i found out about nitrile. Latex also an option but you're hands will smell long like balloons and are not healthy in the long run.

    I get that you're a Lewitt affilate and congratulations to you, and I mean that, however, I don't know who in their right mind would drop close to three fucking grand on a 1040 considering the competition at that price, Telefunken, Geffell and not to mention Flea. The mere fact SX Pro don't stock them says it all really. They're made in China too regardless of where they're 'engineered'. Microphone choice is extremely important and for me, I'd be going with the Telefunken TF47 which at almost a third cheaper is one incredible microphone. I'm not knocking Lewitt but three thousand pound on what amounts to a budget microphone brand is a bit of a stretch regardless of the R&D.
