Whether using a preamp built into an audio interface or a standalone preamp, the basic functions remain similar. From microphone input, instrument input, and gain control to phantom power, phase reverse, and low cut, understanding each function helps users set up signals correctly and use the preamp more effectively during recording.

Adding a subwoofer to a studio monitor system not only extends low-frequency reproduction but also reduces the load on the monitors, increases headroom, and reduces distortion. However, for the system to operate accurately, the subwoofer needs to be properly set up in terms of phase, level, and placement. Neumann explains the key factors that allow monitors and subwoofers to work together as a unified system in the studio.

Three-way studio monitors do more than simply add another driver. They provide greater control over the midrange, where much of the critical information in a mix is located. Dividing the low, mid, and high frequencies among dedicated drivers improves accuracy, reduces distortion, and enhances separation during monitoring.

Full Range Monitoring enables accurate reproduction of the entire frequency spectrum, from deep sub-bass to high-frequency detail. By combining high-performance studio monitors with a subwoofer, the system can provide full control across the frequency range without gaps or exaggeration, delivering a more consistent and reliable monitoring environment.

There are always differences between technical specifications and real-world experience that can only be fully understood through hands-on use. Understanding these concerns, Hoàng Bảo Khoa created Neumann Studio to provide a space where customers can directly listen to, try, and understand the products before choosing the solution that best suits their needs.

From improvisation sessions during the COVID period to a recording journey through the Icelandic landscape, POEMS is where poetry, music, and place come together. Composer Viktor Orri Árnason and soprano Álfheiður Erla Guðmundsdóttir brought the works of Icelandic poets back to the very landscapes connected to them and captured that journey using a compact Neumann studio equipment setup.

The Neumann MCM provides a compact microphone solution for close miking acoustic instruments in live performance environments. Paul Gatehouse, a British sound designer and music mixer, shares his real world experience with the MCM, focusing on its natural sound, versatility, and secure mounting system.

The Neumann MT 48 is an audio interface that sound engineer Terence Goodchild has shared his experience with while working professionally. With experience working with numerous artists in the neo classical and electronica genres, Goodchild highlights the MT 48 for its clear design, flexible integration capabilities, and intuitive operation.

Two monitors, one reference standard Neumann has just announced the KH 310 II and KH 350, two new-generation 3-way studio monitors that combine an acoustic platform developed over decades with powerful DSP technology. Both products are designed to deliver high performance, flexible integration into professional workflows, and the accuracy that has established Neumann’s position in professional recording studios around the world. The KH 310 II continues the development of one of the industry’s highly regarded studio monitor models, while the KH 350 introduces an entirely new full-range monitor option, focusing on powerful low-frequency reproduction for larger listening spaces and immersive mixing rooms.

Home studios without acoustic treatment often struggle with unwanted reflections and reverberation from the walls. The Neumann KM 185’s hypercardioid pickup pattern helps minimize sound from the sides and rear, delivering crisp recordings right at home.
