So far I've used it on a couple female vocals and a male vocal. It's really nice. Smooth, not hyped like any modern mics. To get it to sit in the modern ballpark, a little 4.8k and 12k and it's there. Looking fwd to trying it on acgtr, egtr, and a brass session I have coming up. Def a serious mic w/ a "sound". Noise floor is higher on these than say my u67 partly b/c it's a lower output. Hasn't been a problem.

The U67 was Neumann's answer to the Sony C37A when it started taking sales away from the U47. I have two but no power supplies. :-(

Bill Withers had one in his home studio that I rebuilt. It sounded like there was a thick sock over it.

I'll buy you drinks next January to make up for it. |

As Bob mentioned, Neuamnn then put out the U67 as an answer. Notice how Neumann copied the angled/indented head grill of the C37A. |

That grill smoothed out the response. The low cut was also a big deal. Recording for vinyl the two biggest problems were breath pops and sibilance. As much as people loved the sound of 47s, they were a huge problem unless a singer had learned how to avoid pops and esses using ribbon mikes. The C37 changed things a bunch.

eBay prices on Sony Solidstate mics move up and down more than the shirt in Tonys GIF!
Through in threads like this, and the confusion of C37a & P C38 and 48 !
