The BeesNeez BU47 - 'Classic Series' Microphone

This is just like the original, with a BeesNeez M7 Capsule and Cardioid/Omni patterns only

The BeesNeez BU47 from thier 'Classic Series' is a highly regarded world class clone of Neumann U47. Especially known for its unique and vintage-inspired design, it’s a large-diaphragm condenser microphone often praised for its incredible warmth, smoothness, and vintage character. The BU47 is designed and hand built in Australia and painstakingly recreated a part-for-part from the capsule and head unit, to the connector and plug and they even include paper-in-oil capacitors, their very own handmade BV-08t Transformer, and a BeesNeez M7 capsule!

Key Features:

• Carioid/Omini M7 versions: This is just like the original, with a BeesNeez M7 Capsule and Cardioid/Omni patterns only. (The BeesNeez M7 capsule is a very mellow and sweet capsule. It has the famous lower mid strength and no single frequency is overpowering.)
• Sound Profile: The BU47 has a rich and full-bodied sound with a slightly forward midrange. It's often described as having a vintage warmth, which is perfect for vocal recordings and instruments where smooth, natural character is desired.
• Transformer-Coupled: It uses a transformer-coupled circuit, which contributes to its distinctive sound, adding a bit of harmonic distortion that some engineers look for in specific recordings, such as vintage vocal tracks or acoustic instruments.
• Versatility: While often used in vocal recording, it also shines when capturing guitars, brass, or anything requiring rich detail and a smooth, warm tone.

Construction:

• Build Quality: The microphone is known for being solid and durable. The BeesNeez BU47 features a metal body with a vintage-style grille that reflects its classic look.
• Attention to Detail: The company focuses heavily on quality control and craftsmanship. The BU47 is hand-assembled, with each component carefully tested to ensure top-tier performance.

Ideal Use Cases:

• Vocal Recording: Given its smooth response, it's widely used for capturing vocals, particularly for singers seeking a more vintage, timeless sound.
• Acoustic Instruments: The BU47 performs well on acoustic guitar, stringed instruments, or any acoustic source where the detailed tone is important.
• Studio Applications: It's particularly popular in professional studios, where the desire for high-end audio equipment is a priority.

The BeesNeez BU47 is a fantastic microphone if you're after a vintage sound with modern reliability and craftsmanship. It excels in delivering a warm, natural recording with a detailed midrange that enhances vocals and instruments alike.
