OVERVIEW
Berlin/Amsterdam, 15 September 2017 – There is an elite category of products that exist outside of the march of time – transcending their moment to become timeless icons. In the world of recording, the Neumann U 87 is one such legend. For 50 years this professional studio microphone has been setting standards in the field of audio recording. Now, Neumann celebrates the anniversary of this studio legend with the U 87 Rhodium Edition – a spectacular creation that gives the beautiful U 87 an extra special look to celebrate its timeless achievement.
The U 87 has gained its cherished status thanks to the incredible universality and versatility that has made it a vital part of recording for a half century. Wolfgang Fraissinet, President of Neumann.Berlin, explains that this is why something very special was needed to mark the 50-year anniversary – a rhodium-plated edition of the acclaimed U 87: “This extraordinary combination is the ideal way to celebrate the 50th birthday of the U 87. The exclusivity and beauty of rhodium powerfully expresses the timeless quality of this microphone. The Rhodium Edition truly embodies the high standards of Neumann.”
Exclusive, limited and made to order
Neumann is offering the U 87 Rhodium Edition only once, made to order and limited to only 500 units worldwide. Each of the meticulously crafted microphones is individually numbered with a certificate of authenticity hand signed by Wolfgang Fraissinet, President, Neumann.Berlin.
Every U 87 Rhodium Edition is supplied with a Neumann aluminum case and a special Rhodium Edition EA 87 elastic suspension. A pair of black gloves is also included for keeping the limited-edition microphone in pristine condition.
The U 87 Rhodium Edition is exclusively available via select dealers with orders starting from September 2017.
The Rhodium Edition
Rhodium, a member of the platinum family, is one of the rarest — and most valuable — precious metals on earth. Limited to only 500 microphones worldwide, the Neumann U 87 Rhodium Edition celebrates the 50th anniversary of a true classic: Neumann's venerable U 87. Introduced in 1967, the U 87 gained instant favor with engineers, producers, and their clients; by the mid '70s it was a staple in every world-class recording studio. And it still is. Walk into a session, and you'll see 87s everywhere. On pianos, vocals, toms, overheads, guitar cabs, brass, strings, congas — you name it. The mic's popularity is easy to understand: it ushered in a new era of audio fidelity and reliability, and with three selectable polar patterns (cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8), plus a switchable highpass filter and 10dB pre-attenuation pad, the mic is incredibly versatile, making it an ideal choice for a broad range of recording techniques. With a half century of studio dominance under its belt, the U 87 Ai is the industry-standard large-diaphragm condenser mic. The Neumann U 87 Rhodium Edition, coated with an exquisite precious metal, celebrates this enduring legacy with elegance and panache.
Rhodium Edition accessories included
The U 87 Ai Studio Set comes with genuine Neumann accessories. Your U 87 Ai is a high-end microphone that will capture every nuance of a performance. It will also pick up unwanted environmental sound such as rumble, that can mar an otherwise perfect take. Since the U 87's introduction, Neumann's spider-style elastic shockmount has been used in top studios worldwide to isolate the mic against mechanical stand-borne vibrations. The U 87 Rhodium Edition includes a rhodium-coated EA 87 shockmount, a certificate of authenticity signed by Neumann president Wolfgang Fraissinet, a pair of black handling gloves, and a U 87 stereo set aluminum case.
Neumann U 87 Rhodium Edition Features:
Large-diaphragm FET condenser microphone, coated in precious rhodium
Pressure-gradient transducer with double-membrane capsule
The studio microphone classic
Three directional characteristics: omni, cardioid, figure-8
Switchable low-frequency roll-off
Switchable 10dB pre-attenuation
Ideal as main and support microphone in practically all recording situations
Requires +48-volt phantom power
Includes shockmount, certificate of authenticity, handling gloves, and aluminum U 87 stereo set flight case
