The Neumann BCM 705 mt is the matte black version of Neumann's dynamic broadcast microphone, aimed at radio presenters, podcasters, voice-over artists and streamers. Its moving-coil capsule is tuned for the human voice, with a gentle presence boost above 2 kHz for intelligibility and a soft bass roll-off to tame proximity effect. The tight hypercardioid pattern rejects room noise, and an elastic mount plus internal capsule suspension and foam pop screen suppress handling noise, rumble and plosives. The body is designed to fit standard broadcast boom arms and the headgrille twists off for easy cleaning. As a dynamic microphone it needs no phantom power and simply plugs into any XLR mic input; it also handles loud instruments such as guitar amps and brass. Weight is 500 g, diameter 64 mm and height 110 mm without suspension. Catalogue number 399008 ships with the BCM 705 mt microphone, a safety guide and a quick guide.
