Neumann M 49 V Large-Diaphragm Multi-Pattern Tube Condenser Microphone The Neumann M 49 V is a faithful reissue of the legendary Neumann M 49, the large-diaphragm tube microphone that defined studio recording in the 1950s and 1960s. Built to original specifications using archived documentation, this reissued Neumann tube microphone is built around a classic tube circuit and an original K 49 capsule with a continuously variable pickup pattern controlled from an external power supply. With a robust, detailed sound and natural tube warmth, the Neumann M 49 V excels on vocals and acoustic instruments like piano, guitars, brass, and strings while offering enhanced reliability thanks to modern build quality. Learn more about the Neumann M 49 V and see how this reissued classic can bring legendary tone to your studio. THE LEGENDARY M 49 RETURNS The original Neumann M 49 tube microphone grew out of prototypes developed in collaboration with Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk (NWDR) in 1949 before entering production in 1951. It was the first studio microphone with a remote-switchable polar pattern, allowing engineers to adjust the pickup at the power supply from the control room instead of walking into the live room. Its full, silky sound made the Neumann M 49 a fixture on vocals across countless jazz, soul, and film studio recordings. Handmade and hand-soldered in Germany by a small team of Neumann specialists, the Neumann M 49 V brings the iconic vintage voice of a classic Neumann tube microphone into the modern studio. K 49 CAPSULE At the heart of the Neumann M 49 V is the K 49 large-diaphragm condenser element, the same design found in every Neumann M 49 since the late 1950s. Neumann has manufactured this dual-diaphragm element in Germany without making any changes to the design since that era, so the Neumann M 49 V captures the same detail and warmth as vintage M 49 microphones. This pressure-gradient transducer uses a dual-diaphragm design to produce omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8 patterns, along with every setting in between. The M 49 V maintains a balanced frequency response in every polar pattern, giving this classic studio tube microphone a consistent tonal character on vocals, piano, strings, and more. BV11 TRANSFORMER The Neumann M 49 V uses a BV11 output transformer, just like the Neumann M 49 c that inspired it. The transformer-coupled output provides a 200-ohm rated impedance and contributes to the rich, warm sound that has made Neumann tube microphones a go-to for studio engineers throughout the decades. A first-order, 30 Hz high-pass filter protects the BV11 transformer from infrasonic energy that could cause distortion. Neumann Service can lower the filter frequency to 12 Hz, restoring the extended low-frequency response of early M 49 microphones produced before 1957. The M 49 V's vintage-spec transformer provides the weight that makes this tube microphone a studio favorite on vocals and instruments alike. HAND-SELECTED, SUBMINIATURE TUBE Original Neumann M 49 studio microphones used the Telefunken AC701k tube, but the Neumann M 49 V replaces it with a hand-selected subminiature triode that gives the microphone lower noise than the original. In Neumann's field tests, renowned microphone experts could not detect a difference in sound quality between the M 49 V reissue and a top-condition vintage M 49 reference microphone. Plus, the M 49 V's lower noise delivers cleaner recordings on soft sources like vocals and room ambience. Because this tube requires a 6.3 V heater supply rather than the 4.2 V used by the AC701k, the M 49 V ships with the new NM V power supply and should not be run on a historical power supply. CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE POLAR PATTERN The Neumann M 49 was the first studio microphone with a continuously variable pickup pattern, and the M 49 V carries that innovation forward. A dedicated knob on the NM V pattern control unit lets you sweep from omnidirectional to figure-8, with cardioid at the center position. Because the pattern is set at the power supply, you can fine-tune room sound and rejection from anywhere in the studio without touching the microphone itself. The linear NM V pattern control unit automatically adapts to 100–120 V or 220–240 V mains, so it is ready for any studio worldwide. For engineers who track vocals exclusively in cardioid mode, Neumann can lock the M 49 V to fixed cardioid operation, raising sensitivity by about 2 dB and lowering equivalent noise by about 3 dB. HOW DOES THE M 49 V COMPARE TO A VINTAGE M 49? A vintage Neumann M 49 tube microphone can sound spectacular, but buying vintage gear also requires maintaining vintage gear. The Neumann M 49 V recreates the circuitry and acoustic design of the M 49 c with newly manufactured components, lower noise, and the added assurance of a manufacturer's warranty. The M 49 V replaces the old bayonet connector with the RF-rejecting connector from the broadcast M 249 to prevent interference from modern wireless devices, and the NM V pattern control unit is backwards-compatible with older M 49 microphones. Like every other Neumann microphone, the M 49 V is built to perform reliably in the studio and deliver iconic sound for years.
