The Singers Just like your best mix, it’s only as good as the music and the song. With the flagship Telefunken reproduction of the U47 for $8995 right next to the $999 Slate Virtual Microphone System running their U47 emulation, the results of this shootout are sure to be interesting. We gathered together seven of the best U47-style mics and put them to the test, including the Pearlman TM-47, Wunder CM7 GTS non-”Suprema”, Wunder CM7 S “Suprema”, Telefunken Elektroakustik U47, Flea 47 EF12 with F7 capsule, Bock 47 and Slate VMS ML1. Putting a premium on the quality of the recording techniques used, quality of the room and signal chain, we've put together a brand new U47 shootout that puts the focus back on hearing the microphones as they were intended. We now subconsciously associate the most beloved music of all time with the sound of the U47 microphone. That’s why singers and engineers fell in love with it over the years and everyone from The Beatles and Aretha Franklin to Elle Fitzgerald and Frank Sinatra loved it. How did a German microphone from 1949 become the most sought-after microphone in the world and come to define how vocals are supposed to sound? The U47’s imperfect, “filtered reality” flatters, forgives and makes more of the music than what’s actually there. Digital Adapters & Miscellaneous Cables.
