NeumannM 149 Set Dual-Diaphragm Tube Condenser Microphone

Neumann M 149 Set

Picking up where the M 49 left off, the Neumann M 149 is a thoroughly modern take on the classic tube condenser microphone paradigm. It's an incredibly versatile studio tool, offering nine different polar pattern configurations and a seven-position low cut filter on the mic itself. The M 149 contains the same K 47/49 capsule design as the original dating back to the 1950s, and this paired with the tube circuitry is going to offer some serious vintage vibe onto your recordings. Having said that, the M 149 contains a decidedly modern output section, which utilizes a totally solid-state design with no transformers to deliver the performance and response expected by engineers in today's recording environments. It will make an excellent choice for recording any instrument, whether it's vocals, piano, wind instruments, and more. Neumann's M 149 would be an ideal candidate for anyone looking to add some vintage character to their collection of microphones, but without sacrificing the performance gained by years of additional design refinement.
