PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 
 The TLM 102 defines a new generation of Neumann studio microphone. It sets a new performance and value standard for microphones at this price. It's reduced overall size contributes to an exceptionally compact appearance, which unites all of the typical design components of a Neumann microphone. The harmonious proportions and gleaming grille ring ensure that even at first glance, the TLM 102 attracts attention. The TLM 102 delivers impressive sound. It's newly developed large-diaphragm capsule (cardioid) clocks a maximum sound pressure level of 144 dB, permiting the recording of percussion, drums, and amps at extremely high output levels. Acoustic instruments benefit from the exceptionally fast transient response of the TLM 102. Where the TLM102 really shines is with vocals and speech. It has a slight boost above 6 kHz providing excellent vocal presence in an overall mix. Up to 6 kHz the frequency response is extremely linear, ensuring minimal coloration and a clearly defined, extended bass range. The capsule has an elastic suspension system reducing handling and structure-borne noise. A pop screen integrated into the grille serves to suppress plosives in vocal and speech recording. Due to its price and flexible field of application, the TLM 102 is ideal for home recording and project studio, as well the broadcasting area, especially when clear lines of sight to the speakers are a priority. The TLM 102 is available in black and nickel; a stand mount is included.

 It's tiny. It sounds great. It gets an A plus from me. Well, I really do hope that you guys enjoyed this video

 This is a great podcast vocal microphone as well. This microphone would definitely get the job done. Do you hear that? It sounds great. No EQing, no compression, none of that

 Do you hear that? It sounds great. No EQing, no compression, none of that. It's tiny. It sounds great

 Thank you. This microphone is described as a very little sweet microphone with that big Norman sound as you guys can hear. It's really tiny. You see how big it is compared to my U87, but what's important vocally, it is a well balanced sounding microphone

BEST MICROPHONE FOR VOCALS (2022) | Neumann TLM 102

  So the TLM 102 doesn't compare at all to the TLM 103 sadly. For vocals, it is very obvious the TLM 103 will tackle the job better- in every single way. Upon using the TLM 102, you'll notice the overall sound is "flat" which isn't necessarily bad. A flat sound provided can offer increased singing confidence as the mic fails to pick up on the accurate pitch

  In conclusion the TLM 102 Mic will make your set-up look gorgeous, it's sleek and matte finish really does shine. If it wasn't for my "professional hearing" I would rate this mic 5/5 stars, unfortunately for me this is not the case and instead felt a bit let down on its performance. Though great for anything, it won't excel with everything.

The microphone itself looks great, it is an attractive condenser mic with a well implemented design, compact enough to not take up a lot of a space- yet large enough to capture every sound.  The sound quality is compareable* to your standard 700.00 value microphone, I'm not going to upsell what the sound offers because again, it is compareable to other microhpones for the same value yet automatically you know your paying for the brand. Neumann has a decent reputation, it's something to purchase just because it's Neumann, the "Porsche" of microphones

For vocals, it is very obvious the TLM 103 will tackle the job better- in every single way

A very attractive microphone with a performance catch

 Now the TLM-102 is my daily driver, along with the Shure SM58. And that's because it suits all my needs. Now I know that the TLM-102 is a bit pricey. But to be honest, it's one of the most natural, smoothest sounding microphones that you could find at this price or lower

 I say that because a lot of cheap condenser microphones that are in the $100 or even $200 range have this really bright sound to them. And it makes it unusable in the recording. It's like a very shrill, hurts my teeth kind of ears sound. I don't know, when I hear high pitch sounds they hurt my teeth, they ring in my teeth, I don't know

 That's weird Stefan, thank you for sharing that information. But yeah, it's a very unpleasant sound and when it's time to mix it, at first you go, oh man this sounds great because humans, we are attracted to bright sounds or bright colors or light. So we think it sounds really good and then when you start mixing it, it sounds, you just hear a bunch of high frequencies and the recording is just unusable. I don't know if I explained that well enough, but you know

 Here I have my Shure SM58 and it just towers over this little guy. And we all know that the Shure is as portable as portable gets, I mean with it being a gig microphone and all. And there's no denying that the Neumann TLM-102 could probably fit in your pocket. And no, you probably shouldn't do that

..To get this mic to work, you would need to spend at least $800 or more.  I have a mixed feeling about this mic because it does keep out the background noice pretty well (which was the reason I got this in the first place), however, it not as easy to set this up as I thought

.you're ONLY buying the mic! You will NEED to buy everything else separately to get this to work, and I mean everything else going from cloudlifter, Focusrite, xls cables, desk stand/arm..

To get this mic to work, you would need to spend at least $800 or more.  I have a mixed feeling about this mic because it does keep out the background noice pretty well (which was the reason I got this in the first place), however, it not as easy to set this up as I thought. Plus, this mic is on the quiet side, so you would need A LOT of gains.  Although I will keep this mic as I finally got it to work, let this be a warning note for you if you are not familiar with the whole set up of this mic

 It could be a frustrating experience which will destroy your excitement of getting this mic in the first place.

Beware of this mic

Our new Shure SM7B doesn't sound nearly as good and I think cost $400, but it is super good at blocking off background noise. That's the only thing it is good at. I know it is famous since Michael Jackson liked it, but I think he liked it for its distortion. Why can't we make decent microphones for a reasonable price?

Hello

For many years I've been living without using webcams, but since covid hitted I felt the need to get one become I had more video calls with others people than ever.

So I started looking into webcams, and I'm just speechless about how bad they are to this day.

Even a brand new StreamCam from logitech (released in 2020) selling for 150€ doesn't match the quality of my Xioami smarthphone that coast the same price (and obivously can achieve many other things than simply recording). 

Everything seems extremely overpriced, low quality etc and I simply don't understand why this market didn't evolved that much considering the fact that streaming is extremely popular and people are very interested in good quality webcams.

Why are webcams still terrible in 2021 ?

.with a steady, easily detectable background hiss of white noise. Every microphone creates an innate noise floor just by virtue of the electronics, but a decent mic (even dynamic mics like the SM58 or Samson Q2U) will typically drown out the noise floor with the actual signal. Not the SM7B

 High noise floor  Seriously, unless you're a veteran in the podcast or voiceover field and can list five solid reasons for purchasing the SM7B (none of which includes "the look"), don't buy this microphone. If you're rocking a Scarlet interface, don't buy this microphone. Most podcasters are going to get a better sound with an Audio Technica AT2100 or other entry-level dynamic (or--if you have a solo podcast and a quiet environment-- even a midrange condenser ). Plus you'll save a few hundred bucks

.about that noise floor. If you've done your homework you already know that this is a low-output mic, but you might not understand just how weak a signal can be until you plug an SM7B into your favorite high-quality preamp. I'm running the SM7B through one of the best prosumer interfaces you can buy--the Sound Devices Mix Pre 6--in a sound-treated home studio

Hands-down most overrated microphone in the podcasting/voiceover world

 Free / low cost software preferred. Not a fan of subscription services like AdobeCC or MS365.

Shure SM7B, Cloudlifter, PreSonus Audiobox USB96, and an Amazon basics tripod boom mic stand. Any recommendations for software are welcome. Free / low cost software preferred. Not a fan of subscription services like AdobeCC or MS365

 Shure sells such a POP filter, good enough for the task. Once you're using a proper external pop filter, you can place it really close to the metal grille front, have your SM7B switches without bass-cut and with the presence-boost on (as I said it earlier this is actually a no-presence-cut position rather than a real boost)..

...if you really think hard about it, it is thus trying to be like a condenser mic, but whereas a condenser mic has a built-in preamp, this SM7B needs an external preamp! In-between, that's where it is

.. the audio pattern mimics the legendary SM58's presence-boosting curve, so the SM7B can give your recorded voice the classic Shure SM58 "live" character if you know how to use it right (though again you need to keep in mind that it's never going to be as delicate as a condenser mic, still if you know what you're doing you might find it a worthy trade-off to get great character with the loss of some delicate-ness. Post-recording engineering, a bit of compression and you're back in the game

 Imagine a super-sensitive SM58 with a Blues singer planting his lips of the grille and you're recording his voice in a studio, and you're in 'POP hell...now you appreciate the engineering :)  Apologies for the lengthy review, but I do believe I've given an honest description of the important details
