Neumann TLM107 Review / Test (vs. TLM102, TLM103, TLM49, U87 Ai)

HQ Audio Of Review: https://podcastage.com/rev/tlm107 Support the Channel: http://podcastage.com/support Today i review the Neumann TLM107, a multipattern condenser with two high pass filters and two pad options. It has a balanced bass and mid section and then a treble bump which gives the mic a bit of life. It does sound a touch sharp on spoken word but sounds great for the music applications I tried it in.
