Thank you so much. I've have had TLM 102 five months ago.Ít made me happy.❤❤❤
Thank you all so much for watching and supporting my channel. What do you all think? Also, if you like the sound of the TLM 102 be sure to check it out here ✅👉🏾 imp.i114863.net/DVMxyq
Sounds good 👍🏿 thanks bro
Awesome. Thank you Wallace and you are welcome. I hope you and the family are doing well!
This Norman is incredible
Thx for a simple explanation of this tidy little mic - I love it but want to get the best out of it. Cheers, JPMusic
Great communicator!
Thank you!
Great Video. The TLM 102 is my work horse
Thank you. That’s awesome.
The 102 sound clean but i just love how smooth the 103 sound
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
Yea I def heard that difference
I absolutely love the sound of my TLM 102. I know I've made a very good investment when I purchased it. As it is a very detailed condenser microphone, it helps to have your recording space properly acoustically treated; this mic will help you record fantastic results every time. Thanks for the video, Archie!
M149 is killer. Plenty of mixes I don’t have to Eq my vocals at all. I had 103 but M149 is on another level.
Nice!!! Yes, the M149 is a monster 🙌🏾
I got it with the Apollo twin with most of all the plug-in shit sound amazing
Yes the best mic I’ve ever used for vocals so far I even like it better then my tlm 103
Nice! I stress so much that microphones depend on the individual but there are many versatile options. Thanks for sharing.
Try United Technologies UT87, you'll never want to use the 102 again. And you won't have to pay the price of Neumann's 87 which is absolutely insane.
@@lightafluident.9950 Yes, the u87 is very expensive. I have the tlm102, it's very good but I like the 103 a bit better. I now have the u87. It's so superior to all the mics I have used. Ever. I will never regret getting the Neumann u87.
awesome
Thank you 🙏🏾
sleek setup
Really good mic once you know how to get the best out of it. The integrated foam it has in the capsule I actually removed and got a clearer sound out of it
It's a quite weird mic if you ask me. It has a "metallic" quality at the high mids that is not for everyone. How did you do your mod without damaging the mic?
That’s awesome man 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
@@dirtyharry1881 you can unscrew that silver ring right under the mesh capsule and it comes off. The if you look inside it there will be a thin line of foam you can take out. But obviously you just gotta careful cause the diaphragm will be exposed
@@phnxjordan thanks! I always use a pop-filter. Can the mod be reversed?
@@dirtyharry1881 yeaa for sure you can just place it back in. Had to make sure it was reversible in case I wanted to sell it one day lmao
Tlm 102 vs 103 which one do u like better?
hey, thinking of picking this up but I see an 87AI for about 2k secondhand - is it worth the jump?
Great
Thanks Santiago!
I have it and I like it, but still really want the 103. It's better for lower bassy voices like mine.
I see. I totally get it. The TLM103 is amazing.
If you still own a 102, try removing the foam inside the capsule. It'll sound like another mic, very very close to the 103. Try it
Your saying open up the mic?
@@WassupFred Yes! Its super easy and u dont demange the mic. U can find on YT tutorial. "just twists the ring" and open slowly,
@@VibeMusicRo ok great, i will try it!!!
@@WassupFred feedback to me after, bro !
good luck
@@VibeMusicRo thanks bro Yea i will.. I’ll send u links to the music.. I’m using the 102 right now.. fresh setup so let’s see how we do. I have a deeper voice but let’s see. Cheers bro
Can I use this mic with my scarlet solo or should i upgrade
"Norman" lol mic sounds good!
Hey bro , great video , let me ask, is there a certain type of voice u would recommend on this mic?
What's up man? In my findings, the TLM102 works on pretty much any style or class of vocals. It's definitely a safe play. I hope this helps.
@@archiebeatz for sure, appreciate u
Hands down my favorite mic I ever owned
🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
👀That Tiny ass Mic sounds amazing🤷🏾♂️Thats crazy
What is your opinion on the Neumann headphones you are wearing? i am considering these or the beyerdynamics ?
This is where I’m at too lol
@@WassupFred I ended up buying both. Tried them both and kept the Beyerdynamics
Let’s hear that mic with EQ and compression 💪
I got you!
I don't know sht about audio but trying to get started. What's that little keyboard beside your... keyboard? I wanna pick one up
I understand. It's an Akai mpk mini
@@archiebeatz thanks brethren
Are there any specs differences between this and the MT version? Or is there no difference besides the colour of the mic?
Black one sound better
Don't you find that the TLM 102 sounds more like a sensitive dynamic than a condenser? I find it rather narrow sounding and therefore not good enough for professional folk vocals for instance. Am I wrong? It's a shame because I love the sweet velvety character it has.
Hi brother you need the TLM 107 🔥🔥🔥
I'm definitely getting one here in the studio! Thanks brother.
What kind of interface are you using brother???? Are you using a preamp???
I have the UA Apollo 8 Quad, Apollo x4 and Twin X cascaded (linked together)… My main preamp and channel strip is UA 6176 and Neve 5211.
@@archiebeatz how do you like the 5211 neve?
hello, is it possible to record with this microphone with my tascam portacapture x8?
It should be able to. The Portacapture x8 has XLR connectors and phantom power to power the Neumann.
U87 vs u89?
I'm a singer my style is like Justin timberlake. Which mic you think will sound better for my vocals 102 or 103 ?
I would say the TLM 103! It has a more define and rounder sound. I hope this helps.
Thanks! it helped alot!!
Do you know if this mic will fit in a kaotica eyeball?
This is a really good question. Did you ever find the answer?
WHAT ARE SOME GREAT ANALOG OUTBOARD GEAR OPTIONS WHEN IT COMES TO COMPRESSORS AND EQ ❓
The Tegeler Crème is a great master bus compressor and eq. For vocals and instruments the UA 6176 channel strip (610 tube preamp and 1176 compressor all in one) and Neve 5211 preamp. I hope this helps.
@@archiebeatz MUCH APPRECIATE I’LL LOOK INTO THEM
@@archiebeatz SO IF I JUST BUY THE UA 6176 WITH THE APOLLO TWIN X DUO WOULD THAT BE GOOD ❓
@@TheUndebunkable it will be perfect because the 6176 is a channel strip with a high quality tube preamp and the 1176 compressor… it’s a win win situation.
@@archiebeatz I APPRECIATE THE INFORMATION
Yeah. I find the sound profile of this to be less “harsher” than tlm 103
Yeah 103s were too harsh on my voice I had to sell mine
Great observation 🙌🏾
Does interface matter in quality of vocals
Yes, but a better mic will always sound better than a bad mic on any kind if interface. You should be able to tell the difference.
Can you review the AT5040?…
I'm actually working on getting one here at the studio to review right now as we speak. Be on the lookout 🙏🏾
@@archiebeatz Thanks!…Im interested because I owned various mics but some of the popular mics I owned was the TLM 102, 103, 49, Lauten Audio 387, Rode K2 but I just prefer the tone that my AT4050 gives me…but it lacks a little clarity that the TLM 49 offered…so hopefully that AT5040 has that same AT4050 tone but with more clarity…
@@minusx31 oh man the 4050 whoops so many mics, I have went through tons of mics and always go back to my 4050 and the 4040, you’re right though it’s not as clear sounding but it’s nice after compression and eq, you definitely have to work a little to make it shine but when you’re done it sounds better then majority of the mics out there, it’s boring mic without mixing but sounds exciting after it’s mixed
@@rylandweet7750 I’ll stick with my TF51…5040 out my price range…my TF51 has that AT4050 tone but with better clarity…
The 102 sounds like the 103 with a windscreen...oh wait
Not the best but is a decent option.
How much are they lol
TLM 102 VS RODE NTK ?
Honestly, both. The NTK has a beautiful warm tube character while the Neumann TLM 102 have an ultra clear character. They both give two different vibes for two different kinds of songs. I hope this helps.
Well...the NTK is cheaper....that's all I can think of but check out the Waves Audio video she was using the NTK and mixed and mastered right this microphone not let you down it sounds incredible. Check it out right here: ua-cam.com/video/BS0ZcGqFex4/v-deo.html
I got beats to beo
Thanks. It is still too expensive for what it is, and comparing it with the great but still extremely expensive U87 does not help as TLM102 sounds basically the same a Rode NT1 which is almost 3 times less expensive, not to mention Apple like way of doing things, sell expensive but without a shock mount, and advertise it as a home studio microphone but make it with a horrible room and handling noise rejection, not to mention how resonant the body of the microphone is for 700.
The U87 has its "magic" in transformer saturation and how well it treats the sibilants, which is not what most mics do these days, but if you take out those two things out of the equation there is absolutely no magic worth paying except having a Neumann badge in the TLM102.
That intro was 1 minute bro
If you want to help me, you are completely free to do so.. and I wish to travel and see the outside world, the countries of the West. We from Palestine and Gaza have been under siege for a long time, more than 17 years.. We do not travel like people.. We s
That 102 is overrated. Thin sounding. Grab a UT87 from United Technologies. You'll never want to sing in any other mic.
