Neumann U 89i Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone – Nickel
Neumann U 89i Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone – Nickel
The U 89 i is a universal studio microphone combining classic transformer coupled circuit topology with a state of the art Neumann capsule. Its linear yet smooth response has made it a prime choice for voice over and speech, but thanks to five selectable polar patterns, low noise and distortion, it covers almost any recoding situation in any genre.
