Neumann TLM 170 R Multi-Pattern Mic with K89 Capsule Nickel
The Neumann TLM170R Multi-Pattern Mic with K89 Capsule | Nickel is a large diaphragm, multi-pattern condenser microphone intended for vocal and general instrument recording and broadcast applications. The microphone features a very smooth, flat frequency response resulting in transparent sound reproduction without any coloration to the signal on output. The output circuitry features a transformer-less design resulting in quiet output in addition to low self-noise and impressive dynamic range. The TLM 170 R features 5 directional polar-patterns. Omni-directional, cardioid, hyper-cardioid, and figure 8 are available for use in any recording application. A 10dB pad switch provides further head room and SPL capability and a high pass filter switch eliminates noise at low end frequencies.
FET Design
FET 100 technology along with a balanced, transformerless output stage result in high gain and low noise audio output.
5 Polar Patterns
Omni-directional, wide angled cardioid, hyper-cardioid and figure eight are all available.
Transparent Output Signal
The TLM 170R features a flat frequency response curve, resulting in clean, transparent audio reproduction without signal coloration.
