New and improved Although the latest edition of the U87 features improved circuitry for an optimised performance the capsule remains the same. This means youll receive the exact same capsule used to record many legendary artists and performances. The all-new circuitry provides even more headroom than ever before this is achieved by minimising the resistance which is supplied by the capsule bias voltage. Thanks to this the microphone offers an improved signal to noise ratio of up to 3dB. Get the sound right at source The on-board controls enable you to get the sound right at source. If youre recording instruments with high SPLs such as drums and amplifiers youll appreciate the help of the attenuation pad. Engaging this reduces the capsules sensitivity by 10dB. This minimises the risk of clipping and capsule distortion. If youre struggling with proximity effect take advantage of the on-board filter thanks to this youll be able to achieve up-close and intimate recordings without compromising the quality of your signal.
