Neumann TLM 67 Large-Diaphragm Multipattern Condenser Microphone

Multi-Pattern Switchable Studio Condenser Microphone

The Neumann TLM67 Multi-Pattern Switchable Studio Microphone is a descendant of their legendary U67 microphone, with a solid-state transformerless output stage (over the original tube stage). The TLM67 features 3 switchable polar patterns that feature omnidirectional, cardioid and figure 8 polar patterns.

In addition, the -10dB pad enhances headroom and minimizes noise while capturing transient (peaking) signals. A high-pass filter switch further minimizes low-frequency noise and hum. The TLM67 delivers all the quality and professional crafstmanship expected of a Neumann microphone that features the coveted K 67 capsule. The microphone is ideally suited for general vocal capturing, orchestral recordings, spot capturing of individual instruments and more.
