FAQs

Neumann microphones are widely regarded as the gold standard in professional recording for their ability to reproduce sound with exceptional accuracy and detail. However, this same high sensitivity in the upper frequency range can sometimes make sibilance (“sss”, “shh”) more noticeable - especially when recording vocals. How can you control this issue while preserving brightness and natural tone? Let’s take a closer look.

Neumann RIME marks a new milestone in Neumann’s design philosophy: it’s not just a collection of devices, but a complete Reference Interface Monitoring Environment - a fully integrated ecosystem that allows audio professionals to hear exactly what they record and process, with no coloration, distortion, or tonal deviation.

When it comes to premium condenser microphones, Neumann has long been synonymous with studio recording excellence. However, many engineers wonder: are Neumann microphones also suitable for capturing instruments in live environments, where durability, feedback control, and dynamic handling are more demanding? Let’s explore the technical perspective.

A high-quality vocal recording doesn’t just depend on an expensive microphone or an acoustically treated studio - it also relies on how well you control the signal, especially gain staging and dynamic range. With the Neumann MT 48, an audio interface designed to maximize dynamic precision and sonic accuracy, these two aspects become more transparent and intuitive than ever.

As modern recording and monitoring systems continue to transition toward Audio-over-IP (AoIP) platforms, the choice of network protocol has become a decisive factor in determining performance, stability, and overall audio quality. Among popular standards such as Dante, AES67, and Ravenna, Neumann - a brand synonymous with sonic precision - has taken a distinct path by adopting AES67/Ravenna.

The Neumann MT 48 is not just a high-end audio interface - it’s a gateway to a world of sonic precision. Built on the Merging Anubis platform, this device delivers superior conversion quality, refined transparency, and professional studio-grade performance in a compact form factor.

The Neumann TLM 103 is not a microphone made to “show off specifications.” It embodies Neumann’s philosophy of accurate and refined sound capture, where every nuance is reproduced with absolute fidelity. In the upper mid-range segment, the TLM 103 is often compared to models like the AKG C414 or Audio-Technica AT4050. However, what truly sets the TLM 103 apart lies not only in its design, but in the way it reproduces space and tonal character.
