The Space 87, developed by Icon Pro Audio, offers a flexible, multi-pattern condenser microphone designed for producers, engineers, and musicians. This microphone is inspired by the renowned Neumann U 87, a classic model highly regarded by audio professionals for its rich sound and exceptional adaptability. The Space 87 delivers an impressive blend of vintage warmth and smooth clarity, accurately capturing a diverse range of sound sources such as vocals, acoustic guitars, pianos, strings, and brass instruments.
Ready for the Studio
- This outstanding condenser microphone features three selectable polar patterns, along with low-cut and pad functions, effectively replicating the functionalities of the original model.
- Crafted with high-quality components such as WIMA capacitors, Fairchild resistors, and a Cinemag transformer, this microphone is designed to provide consistent performance and steadfast reliability with every use.
- The Space 87 is particularly adept at capturing subtle and delicate sound sources while avoiding unwanted hiss or interference, making it an ideal option for preserving intricate details and intimate performances.
Versatile Features
The Space 87 features three selectable polar patterns: cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8, enabling users to select the most suitable pickup pattern for their specific needs. Furthermore, the microphone includes a -10 dB pad that can be activated for recording louder sound sources, while the low-cut filter effectively eliminates undesirable bass frequencies.
Its sophisticated electroplated finish contributes to the tube microphone's ability to maintain low self-noise, guaranteeing high-quality audio capture. Additionally, the robust and durable design is crafted from premium materials, ensuring it can endure the rigors of professional studio environments.
