Overview
Lauten's Tom Mic gives rack and floor toms the punch, depth and natural ring of a condenser, without the cymbal wash that usually comes with one. Toms sound big and clean, and you spend less time gating and EQing.
Low cut and high cut switches let you rebalance attack and body at the source, and it handles loud, close-miked drums with ease. It comes with a swivel mount and padded bag.

Forefront Tip
Use the 80 Hz low cut on rack toms and leave floor toms flat for that big low end. Because the rejection is so good, you can often drop the gate on the toms and keep the natural ring of the kit.
