Telefunken | USA U 48 Tube Mic

Telefunken | USA's new U 48 tube mic combines precision vintage expertise with modern technology.
In 1957, Telefunken began distributing the U 48, which offered identical specifications as the famous U 47, with one notable difference: the U 48 featured cardioid and bidirectional patterns, rather than the U47's cardioid/omnidirectional combination. This feature let engineers make use of the M-S and Blumlein stereo techniques, that were popular with classical recording engineers.

The U 47 is exceptional in stereo miking applications and a U 47/U 48 set of mics offers engineers stereo recording options that are not otherwise available. When used in cardioid, the U 48 sonic response is identical to that of the U 47, and is often the microphone of choice for vocal recording.

The Telefunken | USA U 48 microphone system is available in both Platinum and Professional editions.
