    Product Description

    The TLM 102 defines a new generation of Neumann studio microphone. It sets a new performance and value standard for microphones at this price. It's reduced overall size contributes to an exceptionally compact appearance, which unites all of the typical design components of a Neumann microphone. The harmonious proportions and gleaming grille ring ensure that even at first glance, the TLM 102 attracts attention. The TLM 102 delivers impressive sound. It's newly developed large-diaphragm capsule (cardioid) clocks a maximum sound pressure level of 144 dB, permiting the recording of percussion, drums, and amps at extremely high output levels. Acoustic instruments benefit from the exceptionally fast transient response of the TLM 102. Where the TLM102 really shines is with vocals and speech. It has a slight boost above 6 kHz providing excellent vocal presence in an overall mix. Up to 6 kHz the frequency response is extremely linear, ensuring minimal coloration and a clearly defined, extended bass range. The capsule has an elastic suspension system reducing handling and structure-borne noise. A pop screen integrated into the grille serves to suppress plosives in vocal and speech recording. Due to its price and flexible field of application, the TLM 102 is ideal for home recording and project studio, as well the broadcasting area, especially when clear lines of sight to the speakers are a priority. The TLM 102 is available in black and nickel; a stand mount is included.

    SMALL, SMART & POWERFUL

    The TLM 102 brings Neumann quality to even the smallest studio. Like its more expensive siblings, the TLM 102 combines technical excellence with a beautifully balanced sound for silky vocals, crisp guitars and powerful drums. With its cardioid pattern and an integrated pop screen the TLM 102 is a joy to use, even for novices.

    THE PERFECT INTRODUCTION TO THE NEUMANN SOUND

    The TLM 102 is Neumann’s most affordable large diaphragm condenser microphone. And, of course, it is a true Neumann, designed and manufactured in Germany with great attention to every detail. Compared to more expensive Neumann microphones, the TLM 102 is reduced in size and features, but Neumann would never compromise on sound quality.

    BIG SOUND FOR SMALL STUDIOS

    Due to its enormous dynamic range of 132 dB and a remarkably uniform cardioid pickup pattern, the TLM 102 is a very easy-to-use microphone for home and project studios, and also for demanding live applications. Its uncolored sound and fast transient response make the TLM 102 an excellent choice for male and female vocals as well as a wide range of instruments.

    5 Stars
    Glad I took the chance!
    This mic is amazing! The raw rap and r&b vocals that come out of this mic are phenomenal! I was a little hesitant at first because, I mean come on, who has an extra $700 laying around. Plus, I'm only working with a Focusrite 2i2 interface plugged directly in my Mac so I wasn't sure if was going to allow this mic to put out it's full potential. Once I got it connected and did my first recording I was amazed, you truly get what you pay for. Even without proper soundproofing this mic put out great vocals. It does, like most reviews say, give your voice a little bass and just the right amount of presence so expect to do a little compression and equalizing. However, I found that on some songs I've recorded the slight bass boost on your vocal fits just right. The size of it is small but this thing does pack a punch and gives you a near industry standard sound. If you have the money, I say go for it because you won't be disappointed with your investment!By the way, I'm not a known youtuber but I will be uploading a video soon that will provide sound examples. Check it out if your still unsure about getting it, give me a couple weeks to build the video and upload.
