NEUMANN TLM 49 Microphone
The Neumann TLM 49 is a large-diaphragm studio microphone with a cardioid
directional characteristic and a warm sound which is especially optimized
for vocal performance. It is supplied as a set, with an elastic suspension.
The design is inspired by that of the legendary Neumann M 49 and Neumann
M 50 microphones of the 1950s. Naturally the Neumann TLM 49 has the typical
Neumann fine matte nickel finish. The “sound design” is also
oriented toward that of the M 49 and the U 47.
By combining its retro look with proven Neumann transformerless circuit
technology, the Neumann TLM 49 ensures low self-noise and the use of high
gain levels.

NEUMANN TLM
49 Microphone - APPLICATIONS |
- Sound profile optimized for vocal performance
- Pressure gradient transducer with the large-diaphragm capsule of the
legendary U 47
- Cardiod characteristic
- Retro design

|
Vocal:
Lends richness, power and brilliance to the voice, while remaining balanced
and transparent
Announcer: for broadcasting, dubbing and voice-overs
Other: Spot microphone and for recording e.g. strings,
piano and guitar
|
During the development phase, the sound was adjusted in extensive practical
tests, so as to make the Neumann TLM 49 ideal particularly for vocal
and speech recording. However, in addition, it is also suitable for
instrumental applications in professional production studios and demanding
home recordings.

- POLAR PATTERN: |
|
The large-diaphragm capsule of the TLM 49
provides a cardioid directional characteristic with a tendency toward
supercardioid, due to the special capsule construction. Following the
example of the M 49, high frequencies are more directional. The capsule
diameter is 34 mm.
The front of the microphone is indicated by the red Neumann logo on the
microphone body. The capsule is oriented so that the microphone is addressed
from the front. |

49 Microphone -ELECTRICAL FEATURES:
The letters TLM stand for “transformerless microphone”. With
TLM technology the usual output transformer is replaced by an electronic
circuit.
As with traditional transformers, it ensures good common mode rejection,
and prevents RF interference that may influence the balanced audio signal.
Noise signals which affect the balanced modulation line are therefore
effectively suppressed. The microphone can operate at sound pressure levels
of up to 114 dB without distortion, and provides a dynamic range of 102
dB (A-weighted). |

49 Microphone -OPERATIONAL SAFETY:
The entire interior structure is mounted elastically, to prevent the
transmission of structure-borne noise. In addition, the capsule is mounted
with a rubber shock mount.
Due to the wide frequency response, the Neumann TLM 49 can also transmit
extremely low-frequency signals without coloration. Of course this means
that the microphone is also sensitive to noise signals such as vibration
noise and wind noise in this frequency range. The Neumann TLM 49 is therefore
supplied with the elastic suspension EA 3, which effectively protects
the microphone from structure-borne noise. If the microphone is addressed
at extremely close range, Neumann pop screen PS 15 or PS 20 a can be used
in front of the microphone to provide protection against plosive sounds.
