U87Ai – complete with suspension and wooden storage box.
Singers get excited standing before it, and engineers rely on it as their ‘must-have’ microphone.
U87 is one of the recording world’s best known and best loved – and what’s not to love about it! Condenser with 3 polar patterns (omni, cardioid, figure-8) roll-off and pad. Particularly good for vocals. And the inspiration for thousands of other microphones.
