Neumann TLM 49 5-stars Reviews

Who needs a De-esser?

This microphone seems to have a kind a compressor inside it affecting the sibilance. To make sure no sibilance will torment me after I record my vocals, I used a rubber band around it with a Sharpie (pen) positioned in the centre. Doing this, I will not have any problems with Ssss. I love it!

Professional Vocal mic

cheap solution for high end vocals

Cant go wrong with this

I mainly record vocals on beats so I need my recordings to be top notch.

My old akg 214 was a nightmare.Too much harshness...

By my first recording with tlm 49 I was cured.I was spending so much time on correcting things with the akg, but with tlm 49 everything was smooth, the high's were smoother.

The only thing that lacks is the lows.Thats why its " Optimised sound for vocals ".

Amazing Vocal Mic

Amazing mic specially in vocals. We did some comparison between TLM 49 , U87 and modified MXL 990. U87 is the best but very expensive. I like TLM 49 very much because it is very warm mic and good for my voice .Really, I've got fantastic results after mixing.

Vocal/Instrument mic

Used as an unmatched stereo pairing with a JZ BH1 on an acoustic guitar, the frequencies highlighted by each mic then panned left and right, made the finished stereo track sound like two guitars playing in tandem. Fantastic......The higher frequencies, although unforgiving, accentuated the attack and gave a clarity many mics of this price range would struggle with.
