Neumann Tlm

As a voice over talent, choosing a microphone is one of the decisions of the most important race you have to do. After all, you should consider the microphone to be an extension of her voice, personality, character and sound. Many artists voiceover Late in the industry and as those with years of experience called ProComm Studio Services team for advice on buying their studies at home. When it comes to prefer the TLM103 microphones Neumann.

Neumann Microphones are used in recording studios around the world for its superior sound quality and versatility. The Neumann U87 has been a standard industry's voice in the field for many years and, more recently, the TLM103 has become important. This article will discuss these two microphones and explain TLM103 is why our microphone of choice for voice recordings.

The U87 and TLM103 are great sounding microphone, but we recommend the TLM103 by several reasons. First, the car has TLM103 virtually undetectable noise. In the time it was first released the TLM103 had the lowest self-noise available any large diaphragm condenser microphone. Second, the TLM103 is able to handle high sound pressure levels. This allows the voice talent to learn about and personal with the microphone at a time, side and scream that great car deal or promote the next drag race the next. With its ability to handle SPL of 138dB the microphone can do all this with a low risk of distortion. The TLM103 has a rather high frequency that starts just a bit lower in the frequency range that increasing the U87. This increase, starting just above 4000 Hz, the voice gives an extra advantage only in comparison with the rise of U87 (starting at 5000 Hz), allowing Cutting the voice disorder more easily and before applying any equalization.

The U87 provides more options including 3 different polar patterns (omni-directional, cardioid, and figure 8), a switch, -10 dB attenuation and a low roll off. While the multiple polar forms are useful in the music industry, are rarely needed for voice overs. In the past, the recording sessions for the participation of multiple voice talents (where Figure 8 and Omni-directional pattern may have been necessary) would have done in a room with everyone standing around a microphone. Today most sessions involving multiple voice talents are held with each individual in his own room, often in different parts of the country or even throughout the world. This eliminates the need for multiple polar patterns.

The attenuation switch on the U87, for the work, makes (in my opinion) to modify microphone sound a bit. In addition, the TLM103's ability to handle higher sound pressure level (138dB vs 127dB with the pad U87 dedicated) denied usefulness of the pad when comparing the two microphones. The low roll off switch can be a useful feature, but is rarely an absolute necessity.

The capsule in the TLM103 is based on the design of the capsule in the U87 so they are generally in sound quality and performance. However, with the small (but unnecessary voice-over), feature set TLM103 costs less, which is the ultimate reason TLM103 ProComm recommended on the U87.

Low Self Noise TLM103, his ability to handle high SPL, their similarities and light (but nice) differences in the U87 and lower cost make it the "microphone of choice" for ProComm. Both microphones are industry standards for a reason and both can reproduce sound clearly and accurately. In fact they are so accurate that the major criticisms of both of these microphones is that they tend to lack character. This criticism comes mainly from the music world, however this is not a criticism, because in the world of voice-over "character" should come from you, the voice over talent, and not the microphone.
