Product Information
The design of the microphone
is a registered design of
the Georg Neumann GmbH
in certain countries.
In the world of studio microphones, the numbers “47”, “67”
and “87” have associations that inspire enthusiasm among
professionals in the field. It is of course no coincidence that
the name of the new TLM 67 contains the number “67”. In
many respects, the TLM 67 is based on the “workhorse” of
the 1960s, the legendary U 67. Like the U 67, the TLM 67
incorporates the K 67 capsule. In addition, the special new
circuit design closely reproduces the sound characteristics
of the classic U 67, without the use of tubes. Similar Neu-
mann circuit technology has already proved very successful
in the TLM 49.
The TLM 67 is extremely versatile. Its three switchable
directional characteristics (omnidirectional, cardioid and
figure-8), selectable 10 dB pre-attenuation and high-pass
filter permit detailed adjustments to be made, depending
upon the specific recording situation.
Exterior design
The TLM 67 is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone in
the classic Neumann style, with a unique dual-color design.
The stylish pearl-gray of the microphone body combined
with the classic Neumann nickel lends the microphone a
touch of distinctive individuality.
The legendary, frequently imitated design of the Neumann
U 67 was the first to be developed by Neumann employees
in collaboration with the famous German designer, Wilhelm
Braun-Feldweg. The design of the TLM 67 represents a con-
temporary development of that of the U 67, transferring
its positive impact to the present era. The enhanced exte-
rior design thus links past and future microphone design
trends.
On the occasion of its 80th anniversary, the Neumann com-
pany is honoring its founder, Georg Neumann, with a three-
dimensional metal emblem on the front of the TLM 67. The
distinctive Neumann attraction is conveyed in every detail
of the microphone.
Applications
Due to its extensive control features, the TLM 67 is suitable
for a wide range of applications. In addition to its primary
role as a vocal microphone for all types of music and spoken
voice, in orchestral recordings the TLM 67 can be used as a
main microphone and as a spot microphone for individual
instruments.
Acoustic features
The TLM 67 is addressed from the side. The front is indica-
ted by the Neumann logo.
A large wire mesh grille encloses the elastically mounted
double diaphragm capsule. The directional characteristics
omnidirectional, cardioid or figure-8 can be selected via a
switch below the grille. The selected setting is indicated by
a symbol shown in a window above the switch.

Electrical features
The letters “TLM” stand for “transformerless microphone”.
In the TLM 67, an electronic circuit is used rather than a
conventional output transformer. Like a transformer, the
circuit ensures good common mode rejection, effectively
suppressing interference signals that affect the balanced
modulation line. The microphone can operate at sound
pressure levels of up to 105 dB without distortion, and has
a dynamic range of 94 dB (A-weighted), without the use of
the pre-attenuation switch.
Filter and pre-attenuation
The pre-attenuation switch on the back of the microphone
can be used to reduce transmission levels by approx. 10 dB.
It should be used only when there is a risk of overloading
following devices due to very high sound pressure levels.
Use of the switch does not increase the dynamic range of
the microphone, but rather shifts it by 10 dB, to higher
sound pressure levels. The other switch on the back of the
microphone can be used to change the cutoff frequency of
the built-in high-pass filter, so as to suppress the effects
of impact sound and wind noise, or to compensate for the
proximity effect.
Operational reliability
Elastic mounting of the capsule supplies protection from
the transmission of structure-borne noise. If required, the
EA 87 elastic suspension and WS 87 windscreen are availa-
ble as accessories, for further suppression of structure-bor-
ne and wind noise. The PS 15 or PS 20 a popscreen can be
used if the microphone is to be addressed at close range.
* These are just some of the most common applications. We recommend additional experimentation to gain maximum use from this microphone.
