Neumann TLM 107 Multipattern Condenser Microphone (Studio Set)
Product details
The Neumann TLM 107 is a versatile multipattern condenser microphone designed for professional audio recording applications. Neumann, a renowned microphone manufacturer, is known for producing high-quality microphones used in studios, broadcasting, and various audio production settings.
Here are the key features of the Neumann TLM 107:
-
Multipattern Polar Design: The TLM 107 offers five selectable polar patterns, including omnidirectional, wide cardioid, cardioid, hypercardioid, and figure-eight. This wide range of polar patterns allows you to adjust the microphone's sensitivity and pickup direction to suit different recording scenarios. It is a particularly valuable feature for capturing a variety of sound sources with precision and flexibility.
-
Large-Diaphragm Condenser Capsule: The microphone features a large-diaphragm condenser capsule, which offers exceptional sensitivity and frequency response characteristics. This design allows the TLM 107 to capture sound with high detail and accuracy, making it suitable for capturing vocals, acoustic instruments, and various sound sources in the studio.
-
Transformerless Circuitry: The TLM 107 utilizes transformerless circuitry, which contributes to its low self-noise and improved transient response. This results in clean and transparent recordings without coloration or distortion.
-
Switchable Pre-Attenuation Pad: The microphone includes a pre-attenuation pad with three selectable levels (0 dB, -6 dB, -12 dB). The pad helps reduce the microphone's sensitivity to handle high sound pressure levels, making it suitable for recording loud instruments like drums and guitar amplifiers.
-
Switchable Low-Frequency Roll-Off: The TLM 107 has a switchable low-frequency roll-off at 40 Hz or 100 Hz. This feature helps minimize low-frequency rumble and handling noise, making it ideal for recording in less-than-ideal acoustic environments.
-
Robust Build and Design: Neumann microphones are known for their excellent build quality and durability. The TLM 107 is no exception, featuring a rugged construction that ensures it can withstand the demands of professional studio environments.
-
Integrated Shock Mount: The microphone comes with an integrated shock mount to isolate it from vibrations and mechanical noise. This helps ensure clean recordings and reduces the need for external shock mounts.
The Neumann TLM 107 is a versatile and high-quality condenser microphone suitable for a wide range of recording applications, making it a popular choice among audio engineers and recording professionals seeking top-notch performance and flexibility.
THE MODERN STUDIO WORKHORSE
The TLM 107 is a reference class microphone for vocals and instruments with breathtaking realism. Five polar patterns plus variable pad and low cut settings make the TLM 107 exceptionally flexible. And with a dynamic range of 131 dB the TLM 107 captures anything from a slight whisper to massive drums without unwanted noise or distortion.
The TLM 107 offers true high definition sound quality at an affordable price. Neumann developed this microphone for project and home studio users who prefer to capture an uncolored sound image, true to the original source, in order to retain all options for post processing and mixing. The TLM 107, in turn, offers all the flexibility required to make a high quality recording of any source in any situation.
Neumann decided to give the TLM 107 a modern look, although the large tapered headgrille does echo the iconic design of such Neumann classics as the M 49 tube microphone. The stylish navigation toggle on the back of the microphone is a joy to use as it controls all settings in one place: pad (0/–6 /–12 dB), low cut (lin/40 Hz/100 Hz) and polar patterns (omni/wide cardioid/-cardioid/¬hyper¬cardioid/¬figure-8).
The newly developed dual diaphragm condenser capsule is specially designed for the TLM 107 to offer outstanding transient response and an extended, carefully balanced frequency response for all polar patterns. This means, you can adjust the directional pattern according to the recording situation without affecting the overall sound balance. Which is quite extraordinary for a large diaphragm microphone! And, needless to say, the TLM 107 offers true Neumann quality in any setting.
