Neumann U 87 AI Studio Set Professional Vocal Condenser Microphone

Share:

A definitive legend for decades, the nickel Neumann U 87 Ai Studio Set is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone offering the timeless and special sound that remains highly coveted by singers, voice-over artists, announcers, producers, and recording engineers.

By combining the same dual-diaphragm capsule design as the heralded U 67 with FET circuitry and a transformer-balanced output, the U 87 Ai retains the voicing that made the U 87 famous while ensuring low-noise performance and optimal signal purity.

The U 87 Ai's dual-diaphragm capsule, elastically suspended, offers three polar patterns—omni, cardioid, and figure-8—for versatile studio use. A switchable -10 dB pad allows capture of SPLs up to 127 dB without distortion, while the low-cut filter controls low-frequency buildup.

The Gold Standard:
The Neumann U 87 Ai is one of the most recognized studio microphones worldwide. Its smooth, refined sound and elegant design make it the standard for speech and vocals. With three polar patterns, pad, and low-cut options, it's adaptable to many applications.

Omnipresent and Special:
Introduced in 1967, the U 87 Ai has shaped the sound of countless hit records. Its iconic design and sound have become synonymous with studio excellence.

Classic Neumann Engineering:
The U 87 Ai uses the same capsule design as the legendary U 67, with an FET circuit and transformer-balanced output for maximum signal integrity and high common mode rejection.

Versatile Applications:
Praised for its clarity and midrange presence, the U 87 Ai is ideal for vocals, voice-over, dubbing, and audiobooks. Its balanced response suits acoustic instruments, drums, cabinets, and classical soloists. A stereo pair is often used for piano recordings across genres.
