Used Neumann TLM103 Condenser Microphone

Description

The Neumann TLM 103 is the ideal large diaphragm microphone for all professional and semi-professional applications requiring the utmost in sound quality on a limited budget.By utilizing the tried-and-true transformerless circuit found in numerous Neumann microphones, the TLM 103 attains extremely low self-noise and the highest sound pressure level transmission. The capsule, derived from that used in the U 87, has a cardioid pattern, is acoustically well- balanced and provides extraordinary attenuation of signals from the rear.Neumann TLM 103 FeaturesLarge diaphragm cardioid microphonePressure-gradient transducer with one-diaphragm capsuleTransformerless circuitryExtremely low noise: 7 dB-A vAvailable in satin nickelIncludes swivel mountStraightforward handling for homerecording and professional studiosHigh-quality professional equipment for limited budgetsNeumann TLM 103 ApplicationsDue to the universal cardioid pattern, straightforward handling, extremely low self-noise level, and finally, the price, the TLM 103 is predestined for all demanding applications from home recording to professional broadcasting and commercial recording studios.Application HintsA universal cardioid micVocalist recordingAnnouncer´s mic for broadcasting/voice overDue to minimal self-noise:on-air mic for radio/broadcastvery low amplitude signalsradio dramasamplingfoley/sound effectsHome recording and project studiosSpot mic for:wind instrumentsstringspercussionguitar ampsdrum overheadThese are just some of the most common applications. Neumann recommends additional experimentation to gain maximum use from this microphone.Polar patternThe TLM 103 is equipped with a large diaphragm capsule with cardioid pattern. By focusing on this pattern – used in most recording situations – the attenuation of unwanted rear sound has been optimized. Off-axis sounds are rendered naturally while isolation is increased.
