The Neumann U 89 i mt is a large-diaphragm condenser studio microphone designed for maximum flexibility and precision in professional recording environments. As a modern evolution of the legendary U 87, the U 89 i mt offers five selectable polar patterns, extended frequency response, and higher SPL handling, making it suitable for an exceptionally wide range of recording applications.
Engineers appreciate its smooth, natural sound that captures vocals and instruments with clarity while retaining warmth and depth. Its versatility makes it equally at home in voiceover booths, orchestral halls, and project studios. Unlike many single-pattern microphones, the U 89 i mt allows users to switch between omnidirectional, cardioid, hypercardioid, figure-8, and wide cardioid patterns, giving unparalleled control over room ambience and source isolation.
The microphone’s matte black finish (mt) gives it a discreet, modern look, ideal for broadcast and video applications where aesthetics matter. Built to the highest standards by Neumann, the U 89 i mt delivers consistency, durability, and world-class sonic performance.
Whether used on vocals, piano, strings, winds, or as a room microphone, the Neumann U 89 i mt continues the tradition of excellence associated with Neumann microphones, making it a top choice for recording professionals worldwide.
