Neumann U87Ai Shockmount Set Z Microphone with Box

The Neumann U87ai studio microphone is well-known for its warm sound and balanced features. It has a large dual-diaphragm capsule with three selectable directional patterns: omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8, and its signal-to-noise ratio is 6 dB higher than its predecessor. A 10 dB attenuation option allows the U87 to handle sound levels as high as 127 dB without distortion, and the low-frequency response can be decreased to compensate for the proximity effect. For decades, the Neumann U87 has been the chosen studio voice mic. It also works well as a main mic for band or home studio recordings, as well as a spot mic for individual instruments. Frequency range: 20 Hz to 20 kHz; impedance: 200 ohms. The shockmount contains a windscreen, cable, and EA87 elastic suspension and is packaged in a hardwood jeweler’s box.

An excellent pick for almost any source.

When you want fidelity, clarity, and authoritative presence, the U 87 Ai—with its ruler-flat midrange and mild presence boost—is your go-to microphone. We all need vocals to stand out in the mix, and the 87 was designed specifically for this purpose. It is not suitable for many vocalists, but it is the vocal microphone of choice on countless legendary recordings. Piano? When you need an acoustic piano to sit nicely in a dense track, a couple of 87s will suffice.

Switchable polar patterns

The U-87 Ai offers three switchable polar patterns (omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8), providing amazing flexibility when it comes to experimenting with alternative recording approaches. With two 87s, you can use stereo techniques such as spaced pair (A/B), XY (including Blumlein), ORTF array, and mid-side (M-S). For a full orchestra, add a third 87 for the simple but effective Mercury Living Presence technique: three evenly placed omni 87s over the orchestral soundstage, centered above the conductor’s podium.

Updated with contemporary circuits.

Neumann produced the original U-87 from 1967 until 1986, when it was superseded by the current version, the U-87 Ai. The U-87 Ai includes improved electronic components, but the capsule architecture remains the same. The new circuitry boosts the mic’s operational headroom by lowering the resistance through which the capsule bias voltage is delivered. This results in a 10 dB increase in sensitivity for the same sound pressure levels, as well as a 3 dB improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio.

Filter and attenuation.

The U-87 Ai microphone’s switchable 10dB pre-attenuation pad is useful for recording a loud source. With the pad turned on, the mic can take sound pressure levels of up to 127 decibels, making it ideal for miking tom toms or a dimed guitar amp stack.

An additional switch activates the microphone’s low-frequency cutoff, reducing unwanted mud and rumbling at the microphone amplifier’s input. This option also accounts for the proximity effect, which is the bass increase that all pressure gradient transducers produce when positioned very close to a source.

Neumann microphones are not mass-produced goods.

Georg Neumann launched his company in 1928, and the CMV 3, sometimes known as the Neumann Bottle, was the first mass-produced condenser microphone. Since then, the Neumann insignia has represented constant quality. Neumann’s easily recognizable diamond is more than just a corporate emblem; it is a quality seal. Every microphone that carries it gives witness to this proud legacy. This degree of brilliance necessitates stringent quality control in order to sustain Neumann’s position as a leading studio microphone manufacturer. Neumanns are not mass-produced; they are handcrafted in Germany by highly experienced technicians.

Precision is constructed for world-class performance.

The distance between a tiny capsule’s membrane and electrode is 35 microns, or less than the width of a single human hair. The gold layer applied to a U-87 Ai capsule diaphragm is only 0.03 microns thick, which is equivalent to 208 gold atoms. Even minor contamination can have a negative impact on sonic characteristics, which is why Neumann microphones are built in a cutting-edge clean room with regulated dust levels of less than 100 particles per cubic foot—conditions adequate for the fabrication of semiconductor chips and cardiac catheters.

We understand what it takes to be a world-class manufacturer. It’s not enough to create one outstanding microphone; the true challenge is to provide the pro audio business with units that sound identical year after year. To achieve this objective, Neumann sets each microphone’s tolerances to the lowest feasible variance when compared to an equivalent Neumann product. This is what some microphone manufacturers do with matched pairs, but Neumann does it on all of their mics. So, you may confidently use two 87s to record a precise stereo image.

Essential accessories are supplied.

The U-87 Ai Studio Set includes genuine Neumann accessories. Your U-87 Ai is a high-end microphone capable of capturing every detail of a performance. It will also pick up undesirable surrounding sounds, such as rumble, which might ruin an otherwise flawless recording. Since the U-87’s launch, Neumann’s spider-style elastic shockmount has been employed in top studios across the world to isolate the microphone from mechanical stand-borne vibrations. The Studio Set also contains Neumann’s incredibly effective pop filter, premium mic cable, and a protective hardwood jeweler’s box for your U-87 Ai.
