Description
Step into the golden era of music with the Neumann U67, a faithful recreation of the iconic tube condenser microphone that defined the sound of the 1960s. Crafted meticulously in Germany, this reissue delivers the same silky smooth character, exceptional versatility, and stellar performance that made the original a studio workhorse for over a decade.
The U67 comes armed with three selectable polar patterns for maximum flexibility. You can easily capture intimate vocals or distant room mics with a simple turn of a dial. The cardioid setting is perfect for focused recording of single instruments or vocals, while the omnidirectional pattern picks up sound evenly from all directions, making it ideal for ambient room mics.
Neumann has painstakingly recreated the U67 using archived documentation and new-old stock components, matching the original's specifications. A redesigned power supply meets modern safety standards while delivering the same sonic performance. Don't let the vintage style of the U67 fool you; it's a thoroughly modern mic ready for any recording challenge with a maximum SPL of 124dB.
From the nickel-plated brass body to the vintage-style suspension mount, every aspect of this microphone exudes premium quality and attention to detail. The Neumann U67 reissue offers an excellent blend of vintage character and modern performance, making it an enviable addition to any home or project studio.

Artist usage

Noel Gallagher used the Neumann U67 microphone for recording sitar parts during Oasis's 2007 sessions at Abbey Road, as shown in a BBC-sourced photo.
Used on “Back in Black” with Celestion G12-65s, Neumann U67 & U87, and Schaffer-Vega Diversity System.
Used for the guitar on The Beatles, as mentioned by sound engineer Ken Scott in this June 2012 Sound on Sound interview.
"In addition to Paul's bass being DI'd, the cabinet probably would have been miked with a 4038, [Neumann] U67 or [AKG] C12. I would have used two 4038s on the organ, 67s on John and George's guitars, and it could have been anything on George's vocal.”
Used on Loveless, as mentioned in this May 2018 Sound on Sound interview.
In September ‘89, the Loveless sessions recommenced, moving to Elephant Studios in Wapping, London. “A pretty big live room, pretty low ceiling,” Shields remembers. “It used to a be a car park or something. But there was a sense of space because of the large size of the rooms and there was a good drum room there. They had some good valve mics, Neumann 67s.”
In Elephant, Shields made another sonic breakthrough when he realised that he could distort not only his amps, but the U67 itself: “When you drive the 67 mic, as well as the amp, but basically not put the pad on the mic, it has a certain sound. I do remember the engineer being quite concerned about it, but I really liked it.”
In a screenshot from Radiohead's "From The Basement" performance of "Bodysnatchers" on April 2, 2008, Ed O'Brien is seen using a Neumann U67 microphone, identifiable by its Tuchel connector, to mic his Vox AC30 amplifier.
In this article by Sound on Sound it says Matty Healy used the U67 for recording his vocals on the 1975's debut album
Engineer Derek Ali on recording To Pimp a Buterfly : "On ‘Alright’ I used a U67 instead of a U47 on [Kendrick's] voice."
Used for the electric guitar on Only by the Night, as stated by producer Jacquire King in this December 2008 Sound on Sound interview.
"We had five or six guitar amplifiers available for each guitar, and again, we picked the ones that were most appropriate for the song. Angelo and I would listen to the guitar parts and mix and match amplifiers. Sometimes we'd put reverb on one amp and a delay on another, or effect pedals on both. We had all kinds of combinations, although we kept it to two amplifiers per performance for each player. I'd put an SM57 in front of one amp and a U67 in front of the other. The guitars went through API mic pres, an API 550A EQ, and I also used some APSI parametric EQs. Occasionally I'd put an 1176 in the signal chain, but in general I don't use much compression on distorted electric guitars going to tape, because there's not a lot of dynamic range to them as it is. The synth–like reverb you can hear on the guitar was done at Blackbird on an Eventide DSP4000 and added during the transfer to Pro Tools."
