About Neumann BCM 104 mt

After precision and clarity are paramount, the BCM 104 mt Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone in its elegant black finish exemplifies Neumann's dedication to audio excellence. This state-of-the-art broadcast microphone is meticulously crafted for radio, live streaming, and podcasting, ensuring your voice resonates authentically with your audience. The BCM 104 mt transcends the ordinary microphone; it is a sophisticated tool engineered to capture and convey emotion with unmatched precision.

Designed with functionality in mind, this microphone features an integrated pop screen and a shock-protected large-diaphragm condenser capsule, specifically optimized for speech applications. Its transformerless circuitry ensures a direct, noise-free sound, allowing your voice to take center stage. The BCM 104 mt is not merely about functionality; it is about forging a connection with your listeners. Whether you're a radio DJ, talk show host, podcaster, or newscaster, this microphone is tailored to meet your unique needs.

The microphone's distinctive shape is optimized for compatibility with industry-standard microphone boom arms, facilitating seamless integration into your existing setup. Equipped with an elastic mount, it effectively shields against structure-borne noise, while the integrated pop screen behind the headgrille protects the capsule from air blasts and plosives. For added convenience and hygiene, the headgrille can be easily twisted off for quick cleaning.

At the core of the BCM 104 mt is its large-diaphragm condenser capsule, expertly designed to capture every nuance of your voice without coloration or unwanted artifacts. With an exceptionally low self-noise of just 7 dB-A and the capability to handle sound pressure levels up to 138 dB without distortion, this microphone ensures your voice is delivered with clarity and accuracy. The BCM 104 mt's balanced output is transformerless, minimizing hum interference and offering high common mode rejection against extraneous signals. It includes a subsonic filter to suppress frequencies below 20 Hz and an optional 100 Hz low cut to counteract the proximity effect. Additionally, a second switch activates a -14 dB pre-attenuation to reduce the microphone's output level for compatibility with equipment designed for dynamic microphones.

Engineered with a fixed cardioid pattern, the BCM 104 mt provides excellent rejection of rearward sound. Its linear frequency response features a gentle presence boost around 4 kHz and a slight treble lift above 10 kHz, enhancing speech intelligibility. With its remarkable transient response, the BCM 104 mt captures each nuance of the human voice with stunning detail. Its wide frequency response also makes it versatile for sung vocals and a diverse range of instruments.

In essence, the BCM 104 mt Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone is not just a tool but a gateway to a world of clear, precise, and emotive audio experiences.
