The Neumann TLM 67 contains the legendary number “67” in its name for good reason. Indeed, the TLM 67 is Neumann’s contemporary development of the studio classic U 67. Closely reproducing all the sound characteristics of the famous 1960s staple, the TLM 67 incorporates the same K 67 capsule as the U 67, with TLM 49 tube circuit. This particular TLM 67 “Set Z” comes with its own professional shockmount. An extremely versatile three-pattern, large-diaphragm condenser microphone, take a piece of Neumann – and recording – history into your studio with the TLM 67.

Today’s development of a classic
Along with the numbers “47” and “87,” the number “67” resonates within studio professionals the world over. All classics in their own right, The elite Neumann U 47, U 67, and U 87 have attended some of the most legendary recording sessions in music history. Today, Neumann gives us a contemporary development of the classic U 67 in the form of the TLM 67. Using the same K 67 capsule as the U 67, the TLM 67 employs a transformerless design – the same circuitry proved extremely successful with the TLM 49.
A versatile three-pattern condenser
The TLM 67 maintains all the hallmark qualities of the U 67, including its versatility. Switchable between three patterns – omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-eight – the TLM 67 is a perfect vocal microphone for all types of music and spoken voice. It’s also excellent as a main microphone and as a spot mic for individual instruments.
Classic Neumann look with commemorative emblem
The TLM 67 is all-Neumann in its presence, yet features a new and elegant dual-color pearl-gray/nickel exterior. What’s more, on the occasion of its 80th anniversary Neumann pays honor to founder, Georg Neumann, with a three-dimensional metal emblem adorning the front of the TLM 67.
