Neumann U 87 Ai Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone

The Neumann U 87 Ai is the most recorded vocal microphone in history — the microphone found at the centre of virtually every professional recording studio in the world since 1967. The U 87 Ai has captured the voice of every major recording artist, the narration of every major documentary series, and the dialogue of virtually every Hollywood film for over five decades. Its three selectable polar patterns (omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8), high-pass filter, and 10dB pad provide the versatility to handle any recording scenario, and the characteristic warm, forward, three-dimensional sonic character defines the standard against which every other large-diaphragm condenser is judged.
