Neumann U 87 Ai MT Large-Diaphragm Multipattern Condenser Microphone

Neumann U87 Ai

• Studio Microphone

The U 87 is probably the best known and most common Neumann studio microphone.

The U 87 is equipped with a large dual-diaphragm capsule with three directional patterns: omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8. These are selectable with a switch below the headgrille. A 10 dB attenuation switch is located on the rear. It enables the microphone to handle sound pressure levels up to 127 dB without distortion. Furthermore, the low-frequency response can be reduced to compensate for the proximity effect.
