Under the hood with great gear: We love the new RAY microphone from Lewitt, the first microphone with autofocus for your voice. It is a large-diaphragm condenser mic that is small, lightweight, ultimately portable, and has an amazing ability to focus on the sound of our voices to eliminate distractions. Plus, it is very affordable. RAY has many features for podcasters and content creators that you will want to hear more about.

This conversation between Moritz Lochner, the COO and Head of Product and Marketing at LEWITT, and our host, Cirina Catania, takes a deep dive into that design process.

We also talked about the new Connect 2 Interface, yet another innovative product from the fine minds at LEWITT.
