Description
Introduced in 1960, the Neumann U67 was the quintessential studio workhorse throughout the formative years of modern music. Today, more than ever, its inimitably smooth sound continues to be in high demand. Now, for the first time in decades, Neumann’s legendary tube microphone is back in production, built to the original specifications. With three selectable polar patterns and advanced tube circuitry, including low cut and pad switches, the Neumann U67 was well-equipped for virtually any recording task.
Due to its essentially linear response in three polar patterns – omni, cardioid, and figure-8 – the U67 is also a very versatile microphone for all kinds of instruments such as strings, woodwinds, brass, piano, drums, acoustic and electric guitar, bass guitar and upright bass.
