The Neumann U87 Ai is a large-diaphragm multipattern condenser microphone that has been the benchmark studio vocal microphone for over five decades, used on countless platinum records and in virtually every world-class recording facility. It features a dual-diaphragm K 87 capsule with selectable omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-eight polar patterns, providing extraordinary versatility for vocals, orchestral recording, and room ambiance capture. The frequency response is smooth and refined with a subtle presence rise around 8 kHz that adds clarity and air to vocal recordings without introducing harshness, while the bass response is warm and full with a gentle proximity effect that flatters close-miked sources. A switchable 10 dB pad and a low-cut filter extend its usability to high-SPL sources and environments with low-frequency rumble. The self-noise is exceptionally low at 12 dB SPL, ensuring pristine recordings with a dynamic range that captures the quietest whispers alongside powerful vocal performances. Every unit is hand-assembled and individually tested at Neumann's Berlin facility, reflecting meticulous German craftsmanship. The U87 Ai is the definitive choice for professional studios, mastering facilities, and any recording environment where absolute vocal quality is non-negotiable. The premium price places it firmly in the professional investment category and beyond the reach of most home studios.
