U 89i Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone (Nickel)

Neumann U 89i

The U 89i is a classic studio microphone that has graced countless records thanks to its smooth linear frequency response, making it perfect for vocals. However, due to its incredible performance, it is suited for virtually any studio application. The large capsule design utilizes classic transformer-coupled electronics combined with advanced capsule technology, resulting in a superior sounding microphone. Five selectable polar patterns make the U 89i suitable for a wide range of applications, and all feature minimal off-axis coloration. These polar patterns include cardioid, hyper-cardioid, wide-angle, omnidirectional, and figure-eight. Two selectable low cut filters and a 6dB pad are accessible from the microphone. The filters roll off bass frequencies at 80Hz or 160Hz to minimize distortion and the proximity effect. Capture every aspect of your performance with the stunning detail provided by the U 89i.
