WEIRD 47 Mod 2. A K-STYLE SINGLE BACKPLATE CAPSULE WITH DUEL PVC DIAPHRAGMS! They said is was impossible! PVC was the original diaphragm material used on U47’s before it was replaced by Mylar. It is more brittle and harder to work with, slightly more sensitive to moisture – but oh that sound! Fluid and accurate high ends froma large diaphragm tube mic! Others have done a masterful job of recreating the original M style capsules where the PVC diaphragms are actually glued to the back-plate, however they are not adjustable afterwards. We have dared to create a capsule using screwed down back-plates following the K capsule designs of later years, which makes the capsule tunable. And there are no dedicated anchor screws in our capsules to interfere with their tuning. The unique sound is an evolution in the traditional 47 sound. We have sought to evolve the concept all along rather than to recreate the wheel. OrigInal U47’s used a steel vacuum tube. We use hand made German tubes of the highest order. Our capsules are made more precisely, more elegantly, than the capsules of old. What we have come up with is not only affordable, but superior to all previous incarnations of the U47. Now you have two flavors of 47’s from WEIRD AUDIO – The WEIRD 47 Mod 1, and the WEIRD 47 Mod 2. WEIRD 47 Mod 1 Tube Condenser U47 Style Microphone by WEIRD AUDIO. Producers like Chris Bell who engineered the first number 1 Eagles album, Jewel and Rob Zombie says fabulous things about the Mod 2 particularly for female vocals. We started building microphones to give the underdog. Producer and artist a chance – a chance to make fabulous recordings without. Having to pay ridiculous prices for mics. WEIRD AUDIO is the only place in the. On a very old and used Neuman U47. Are reasons why THIRD EYE BLIND, MAX VOX (Geico Voice), CHRIS BELL, Rupert. Nieve’s Engineer and the engineer on the first Eagles number one album love this. WEIRD 47 Mod 1 by Weird Audio, is. An evolution of the U47 concept. Fabulous sounding microphone that generally need very little eq to sound. Your vocal and acoustic tracs. 47 Mod 1 by Weird Audio was elegantly designed, to be super easy to use and. To provide liquid – warm sound – better than the original and we can easily. Old designs were destined to. Be improved upon and here is the proof. Our gold plated, 35 mm capsules are. Machined to the highest standard, way beyond what was possible 60 years ago. And our capsules still use highly polished, brass tension rings that are currently. Made of plastic on all Neuman K capsules. Additionally, our 35 mm gold. Sputtered diaphragms are “full bleed” edge-to-edge gold sputtered, whereas. Everyone else’s diaphragms receive only about 70% of the coverage on their. Diaphragms which are often only 34mm, which means we actually utilize the full. 35 mm of diaphragm per side for added sensitivity and frequency response. The WEIRD 47 Mod 1 by Weird Audio provides amazing clarity. Arity in the middle of a pool of warmth that. Is not frequency favoring. That’s a one of a kind trick in the audio world. As far as our capsule’s backplates, you, won’t. See imperfections and tools marks on our work. The back plates don’t. Require extra mounting screws, penetrating the diaphragms on both sides of the. Capsule, affecting the tensioning and the resonance of the capsule. Made microphone and capsule is carefully crafted to be a precision instrument. Like Blue and Neumann used to do. Except Neumann never made their. Microtech Gefell did, yet Neumann shows an old school metal lathe on the cover of their website instead of microphone! But they never used one! We use a German, military grade, premium 7025 tube. This is one of the most consistent tubes ever built. We don’t use a big. Old school, un-shielded hand wired transformer, that produces noise and. Interference, at the base of our microphone sleeve. That was an issue with the. Original design and the BV08. Was redesigned many times trying to address these problems. Our design is way. As for capacitors, we use highbred Rubicon capacitors that. Outlast and outperform the old NAS paper core capacitors that were inconsistent. The big microphone companies don’t exist as they did before. Bought by mass producers and now sell knock offs of the original legends.

Supplied Accessories: Microphone clip, leather carrying case, packing tube. TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik has created the M80 to give the user a superior alternative to the midrange-laden character of the industry standard microphone. Featuring a wider frequency response and higher SPL capabilities the M80 delivers condenser-like performance in a rugged dynamic design, producing a microphone equally suitable for voice, instruments or drums on both stage and in the studio. Due to its low mass capsule and super thin (yet surprisingly rugged) capsule membrane the M80 presents a wider range of emotion from a live vocal with an intimacy that has been traditionally reserved for studio quality condenser microphones. The head and capsule assembly has been designed to reduce proximity effect to which nets added low end clarity for vocals, while still providing “strength” and “authority” and an “open, ” “airy” character without adding danger of upper midrange feedback or honk. The M80 also features an American made custom wound impedance matching transformer which is where the magic really takes place. When coupled with our proprietary capsule assembly, the results have won hearts and minds in far less time since it’s introduction than we ever imagined possible. Visit the M 80 website for full description, audio samples, photo gallery and much more. TELEFUNKEN Factory Service – TELEFUNKEN offers restoration services for all TELEFUNKEN microphones.

Up for sale is a beautiful 1975 TAB / Telefunken 20x4x2 sidecar / portable recording console meticulously manufactured in Wuppertal, Germany for Dutch Radio with 18 excellent TAB/Telefunken limiters (one per channel – simplified U273/U373 diode limiter circuit w/Haufe interstage transformers), 2 TAB/Telefunken U273/U373 compressor limiters (one per buss – Siemens U273/Tab U373 diode bridge limiter circuit with Haufe interstage transformers – a design that was later used by Neve with the 2254), excellent inductor based EQ, discrete NTP opamps, and top quality Haufe/Pikatron transformers throughout. The console has been professionally refurbished and used/tested extensively since the console was gone through. As part of the restoration 2 new (redundant) power supply regulator cards were manufactured with high quality parts for a lower overall noise floor and increased reliability. This small console is on par with the finest recording consoles ever made as far as build and overall sound quality – and IMO is far nicer than the portable Neve or API desks from this era. From TAB-Funkenwerk and the late Oliver Archut about the TAB U373 compressors/limiters. In 1960, Siemens introduced the U273 the worlds first solid state compressor. There is a dispute over whether or not Neve based their 2254 compressor on this module. There are striking similarities to the schematics but one of the main differences is that the Neve uses Marinair transformers while the U273 used Haufe. The Siemens U273 is one of the best sounding transistor compressors ever made. In 1963 TAB introduced the U373, an upgrade version of the diode bridge design, made with transistors that took the edge off the distortion. TAB built several different versions; the U373a/b/c, the U273a/b version for Siemens and the U373TS version of Telefunken. The U373 group is the only non-VCA compressor that works similar to a remote cut-off tube compressor. 18 x mic/line input modules with up to 72 db of gain in stepped increments, discrete NTP opamps, transformer I/O (2 Haufe transformers on each input module), excellent fully stepped 3 band inductor EQ (10K boost/cut, 60hz boost/cut, selectable mid-band boost/cut), a variable Haufe inductor based HP filter (40, 80, 160, 320), limiter (with on/off switch), 4 reverb sends per channel (pre/post selectable), stepped panning, channel mute/solo, peak LED indicator, a fine gain control (0 to -12db) and a phase switch. All the controls on the input modules other than the fader, fine gain control, and reverb sends are fully stepped. Each input module can also be one of four subgroups by switching the module input from “L” (mic/line) to 1-4. The channel output can be assigned to pan between the main stereo buss (1+2 – red lettering) or three subgroup combinations (1+2, 2+3, 3+4 – black lettering). The subgroup input/outputs allow creative bussing/limiting of drums, backup vocals, etc. 1 x dual HL input / line return module with a pan control and a variable Haufe inductor based HP filter (40, 80, 160, 320) for each of the two channels. The HL input/line return module features discrete NTP opamps and Haufe I/O transformers. 2 x buss modules with transformer balanced I/O excellent compressor/limiters with the ability to select between compression (10,15, 20db), limiting, and a variable release time. The limiters can be linked for stereo operation. The buss modules feature 3 Haufe transformers – 1 input / 1 interstage (for limiter circuit) / 1 output. 2 x dual reverb send module with a reverb send level control and a variable Haufe inductor based HP filter (40, 80, 160, 320). The reverb send module features discrete NTP opamps and Haufe I/O transformers. 1 x monitor module with monitor select switching, PFL level control, monitor level control, mono/stereo switching and a talkback attenuator. The monitor select switching allows you to select between the stereo buss, tape 1+2 input, tape 3+4 input, reverb 1, reverb 2, etc. All the monitor outputs and tape inputs are transformer balanced with Haufe transformers. 1 x measure module that allows you to assign a signal to the stereo PPM meter, and control an oscillator output (XLR on the back panel). The connection panel on the back of the console has three multipin connectors for the I/O wired to three XLR snakes. In addition to the 18 mic/line inputs, 2 HL line return inputs, and stereo buss outputs there are 4 tape inputs, and one stereo monitor output. The XLR inputs allow a variable input level from 0 (line) to -72db mic (+72dB of gain). Since the output of each module is transformer balanced, and the input to the busses are transformer balanced you can be creative with your use of the transformers for different levels of saturation. The limiters on every channel are very useful and sound great. The EQ is mastering quality with mica capacitors, Haufe/Siemens inductors, and similar in sound quality to the Siemens Sitral or early TAB/Telefunken Danner WX95 modules. The preamps use excellent Haufe/Picatron transformers and a discrete NTP opamp. All the important signal paths (mic / line / buss) use the discrete NTP opamps for amplification. Spare EAB faders, reverb send NTP VU meters and NTP opamps included with the sale. For a smaller high quality or portable recording setup this TAB console can’t be beat. Feel free to reach out with any questions you might have. The item “1970’s TAB Telefunken Recording Console 20x4x2 withlimiters Siemens U273 Neve 2254″ is in sale since Sunday, August 1, 2021.
