Neumann TLM102 Acoustic Guitar Recording, Classical

https://www.soundpure.com/p/neumann-tlm-102-microphone/2381
The Neumann TLM102 records amazing acoustic guitars, both classical and steel strings, in an untreated lobby located at the Sound Pure facility. While the room does have some nice natural reverb, it has no acoustic treatment which demonstrates the excellent performance of these microphones even outside of a recording studio. Contact Sound Pure recording experts about your recording needs, or if you would like to pickup a pair of these dazzling little inexpensive large diaphragm microphones from Neumann by calling them toll free 888-528-9703

WHAT NYLON CLASSICAL GUITAR WAS THAT?

[soundpurestudios]

@micmoable That's a Buscarino Grand Cabaret model guitar- really a nylon jazz/classical cross-over instrument. We have a couple absolutely beautiful models to chose from.

Ray Liotta ! :)

@policron Yes? What's up my friend?

Wonderful microphones. It really caught the character, at least to my ears, of Andrew York's "Sunburst"! Thanks soundpurestudios for posting all of these videos; including the Mcpherson videos!

@Dav0London Hey Davo, thanks for posting. Because this is a large diaphragm, the top end will sound a bit smoother than small diaphragms typically used here. Also, unlike a lot of mics being produced today with grossly exaggerated top-end, the TLM102 has a flatter, and more truthful top. So, you are right about the top relative to most other mics, but the reality is that these mics captured the instrument in the room far more accurately.

[Dav0London]

great sound and great playing. The mids and bass are particularly strong and warm toned. The upper frequencies are possibly slightly subdued but the overall sound is beautiful.

@whitefox2131 Absolutely, it should work well as a universal application microphone on all of those things. The TLM102 is more neutral, less bright, than the TLM103, which makes it a bit better on universal applications from what we've heard. The fact that it is less money, makes the TLM102 even more compelling. I would highly recommend that you also check out the Charter Oak e700. If you search "e700" on SoundPure(dot)com, you will see lots of videos on that one too. We keep both in stock

How does this mic pick up strumming? Im consodering this over the TLM 103 because my guitar is bright sounding so I was thinking the bright mic with the bright guitar would make the sound to harsh, and also because of the price. I want to record vocals male and female and also use it for some traditional percussion, tambourine, bongos ect. Would this work for all of these applications?
