The design of the microphone
is a registered design of
the Georg Neumann GmbH
in certain countries.
In the world of studio microphones, the numbers “47”, “67”
and “87” have associations that inspire enthusiasm among pro-
fessionals in the field. It is of course no coincidence that the
name of the new TLM 67 contains the number “67”. In many
respects, the TLM67 is based on the “workhorse” of the
1960s, the legendary U67. Like the U 67, the TLM67 in-
corporates the K67 capsule. In addition, the special new cir-
cuit design closely reproduces the sound characteristics of
the classic U67, without the use of tubes. Similar Neumann
circuit technology has already proved very successful in the
TLM49.
The TLM67 is extremely versatile. Its three switchable di-
rectional characteristics (omnidirectional, cardioid and fig-
ure-8), selectable 10dB pre-attenuation and high-pass filter
permit detailed adjustments to be made, depending upon the
specific recording situation.
Exterior design
The TLM67 is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone in
the classic Neumann style, with a unique dual-color design.
The stylish pearl-gray of the microphone body combined
with the classic Neumann nickel lends the microphone a
touch of distinctive individuality.
The legendary, frequently imitated design of the Neumann
U67 was the first to be developed by Neumann employees
in collaboration with the famous German designer, Wilhelm
Braun-Feldweg. The design of the TLM67 represents a con-
temporary development of that of the U67, transferring its
positive impact to the present era. The enhanced exterior
design thus links past and future microphone design trends.
On the occasion of its 80th anniversary, the Neumann com-
pany is honoring its founder, Georg Neumann, with a three-
dimensional metal emblem on the front of the TLM67. The
distinctive Neumann attraction is conveyed in every detail
of the microphone.
Applications
Due to its extensive control features, the TLM67 is suit-
able for a wide range of applications. In addition to its prima-
ry role as a vocal microphone for all types of music and spo-
ken voice, in orchestral recordings the TLM67 can be used
as a main microphone and as a spot microphone for individ-
ual instruments.
Acoustic features
The microphone is addressed from the side on which the
Neumann logo is located.
A large wire mesh grille encloses the elastically mounted dou-
ble diaphragm capsule. The directional characteristics omni-
directional, cardioid or figure-8 can be selected via a switch
below the grille. The selected setting is indicated by a sym-
bol shown in a window above the switch.
