Frequently Asked Questions

The 'Forward' setting emphasizes high frequencies, 'Neutral' is a balanced response, and 'Gentle' rolls off some of the brightness; it's subtle but noticeable for different vocal styles.
While 12dB(A) isn't the absolute lowest, it's generally acceptable for most recording situations; it’s more of a consideration for very quiet, nuanced vocal performances.
It's not a direct clone, but it aims for a similar level of clarity and detail. The Atlantis offers a slightly more forward, perhaps 'modern' presentation compared to the U87's more classic, rounded character.
