This is a ... "If I had only one mic"... custom Neumann U47 FET clone ...kind of. I had a friend who was a Tech who built a dozen mics years ago for my multi-platinum production team before he passed away. They are all unique, well done experiments. I financed his exploration, and he gave me the best outcomes. To my ears, this particular mic sounds better on most material than a Neumann U47 FET as well, and it absolutely eats TLM 103's. It is more open sounding with a hint of vintage character. There is an instantly noticeable clarity that the TLM 103 lacks when tested side by side, plus this mic takes processing (EQ/Compression) extremely well, and doesn't turn to mush like the U87ai does when you lay stacks. The bottom is tight, mids are clear, and the highs are sheeny/classy. It sounds bigger than life with guts, and Slays on Vocals. It leaves a warm, fuzzy feeling in your belly. Magic on Drum overheads, Huge on Kick Drum/Bass, Adds Sexy to Sax, and sparkles on Guitar! I have a few of these, which is too much for my current bedroom setup, so I'm looking for cash. Price is negotiable, and I will consider a trade for a basic Eurorack setup. (Power supply, filter, lfo, envelope), analog synths (no romplers), API 5 series modules, or some juicy vintage rack(Vacuum Tube? 🎶🎵😅) gear (compressors, preamps, EQ's etc). I don't mind traveling and can demo the mic at your place against whatever you want to A/B against.
