Signal-to-noise ratio, A-weighted1) (rel.Equivalent noise level, A-weighted1): 18 dB-A Neumann describe the U47 FET as a fixedpattern cardioid microphone, although it actually has a distinctly hypercardioid response for all frequencies above.4 Its desirability is based primarily on the synergy of its three sound-shaping components: capsule, tube, transformer. 2 3 The Neumann U 47 is regarded as one of several all-time preferred tube recording microphones ('The Big Five'). Sensitivity at 1 kHz into 1 kohm: 8 mV/Pa Neumann manufactured the U 47 FET between 19 and reissued it in 2014.Acoustical operating principle: Pressure gradient transducer.The microphone is available in classic nickel. Employing a K47 capsule, the microphone is a double large. The microphone cable can be secured at the side of the stand connector, by using the knurled nut to fasten it in the slot (for cable diameters of up to 5 mm). The Neumann U47 FET is a condenser mic with FET 80 circuitry and a cardiod directional characteristic. The bracket stand connector has 5/8"-27 internal thread, with an adapter for 1/2" and 3/8" threads. We take both of these brand new, cardioid only K47 capsule mics and compare them side by side on drums, acoustic and electric guitar, grand piano and female. In order to ensure stable positioning, the microphone is swivel-mounted on an integrated bracket. In addition, to prevent overloading of the connected preamp, the output signal can be reduced by 6 dB via a switch on the bottom of the microphone. Switchable attenuation can reduce transmission levels by 10 dB, facilitating the processing of very high sound pressure levels of up to 147 dB. If required, a switchable low-cut filter raises the lower cutoff frequency electronically from 40 Hz to 140 Hz, thus suppressing undesirable low frequencies (such as impact sound and wind noise), or serving to compensate for the proximity effect. The K 47 provides a slight boost in the range above 2 kHz. The K 47 double large-diaphragm capsule was already employed in the U 47, the legendary tube-based predecessor of the U 47 fet. Among other things this technology, also used in the U 87, is characterized particularly by a wide dynamic range.

In terms of technical design, the U 47 fet is a condenser microphone with a cardioid directional characteristic and fet 80 circuit technology.
Neumann u47 fet serial number#
It is supplied with a high-quality wooden case with sophisticated special packaging, and an individual certificate with the serial number of the microphone. For this, Neumann has resumed production of this classic mic, according to the original production documents and schematics.

The U 47 fet Collectors Edition is a new edition of this classic, issued in the year 2014.

In addition to serving as a soloist microphone, it has become legendary especially for the recording of bass-heavy instruments and for the direct miking of loud amps. The U 47 fet was first manufactured from 1969 to 1986, and since then has been firmly established in the range of microphones used by many well-known studios.
