Wow! I never thought someone would notice! it is indeed the Atlantis. Fab was instrumental in the design and voicing, he used it on the overheads when doing the Apollo video!

Sounds like a fet mic with an EQ switch thrown in. I'm waiting for a continuously variable EQ to be built in, switches are always one step off. How about a semi-parametric EQ built in? Variable gain would be better than a switch too. A limiter would also be nice. So, what capsule did they select? K-47? C-12? K-67? |

It's pretty much an EQ switch, yes. but instead of just shelving off here and there, it's a completely different circuit so the curve is tailored for specific uses (videos and samples coming soon) as for the capsule, it's a 100% original 31.25mm Lauten Audio capsule. you won't find it anywhere else. (except than in Lauten's own Oceanus model) Cheers! | |

We just recorded the amazing Will Knox with it: Puremix_Testing Lauten Audio Atlantis The result speaks for itself. For Will, who usually is a bright singer, the gentle position is super smooooooth AND does not feel muddy. |

I like the gentle setting, but really hope it's not just an eq. Looking forward to tests and reviews of the Atlantis. I also like the sound of the Oceanus might be to bright for some sources
