Along with a balanced, transformerless   output stage it features extremely low self-noise and an impressive   dynamic range. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFive directional characteristics are selectable   by means of a rotary switch. In the sixth position, marked \"R\", the   directional patterns can be controlled remotely with the N 48 R-2 power   supply. There is no special cable necessary for this purpose. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe   microphone has at its rear a 10 dB attenuation switch for extremely   high sound pressure levels, and a high-pass filter to suppress structure   born noise.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApplications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Neumann TLM 170R   condenser microphone is a large diaphragm microphone with multiple polar   patterns. Its sound has a very transparent characteristic, in contrast   to some of our other microphones that have a distinct personality. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTherefore,   this microphone is used for many diverse applications in professional   recording studios, in broadcasting, film and television, and for   semiprofessional productions. The polar patterns can be selected either   at the microphone itself, or controlled remotely through the special N   48 R-2 power supply. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAcoustic features\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe microphone   is addressed from the front, marked with the Neumann logo. The large   diaphragm capsule inside the headgrille has a very smooth frequency   response for all polar patterns over a wide acceptance angle. The curves   are flat and parallel to the 0° frequency curve up to 10 kHz within an   angle of ± 100°. \u003cbr\u003eAs a result the TLM 170 R has a very even   diffuse-field response for all polar patterns. This is important in a   reverberant environment, as more reflections arrive at the microphone   from different directions. The acoustic information is not affected in   its tonal quality when recorded by the microphone. This characteristic   is achieved without resorting to corrective resonance effects. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTherefore,   the microphone maintains an excellent impulse response reproducing all   transient phenomena of music and speech without any coloration. The   capsule is elastically mounted to avoid any structure borne noise that   could interfere with its operation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePolar patterns\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIn   addition to the usual directional polar patterns: omnidirectional,   cardioid, and figure-8, we have added a hypercardioid and wide-angle   cardioid characteristic. When compared to the standard cardioid pattern,   the hypercardioid characteristic suppresses sound from the side more   efficiently. The wide-angle polar pattern is especially useful to record   large sound sources. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRemote control\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe N 48 R-2   controls the polar pattern remotely by varying the phantom voltage. The   range is ± 3 V of the nominal 48 V value. (According to DIN standard a   range of ± 4 V is permissible.) \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe rotary switch on the   microphone must be in the position R (= remote control). In this switch   position the TLM 170 R microphone analyses the absolute value of the   phantom power and selects the corresponding polar pattern. A standard   3-pin microphone cable is used, similar to the microphone's conventional   operation. Cable lengths may be up to 300 m (1000 feet). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eElectrical features\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe   letters TLM stand for \"transformerless microphone\". With TLM technology   the usual output transformer is replaced by an electronic circuit. As   with traditional transformers, it ensures good common mode rejection,   and prevents RF interference, that may influence the balanced audio   signal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Neumann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449488306279,"sku":"29045","price":1275.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/used_neumann_tlm170_1920_front_326ea092-b7a3-4150-b437-a219777b27f6.jpg?v=1787089153","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/neumann-tlm-170-r-1920-used","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
