The Telefunken / Neumann KM 56 Miniature Multipattern Tube Microphone is a small-diaphragm condenser microphone with multiple directional patterns (omni, cardioid, and figure-8).
It features a dual-sided, small diaphragm capsule skinned with nickel, as well as a tube amplifier circuit. The KM 56 is excellent for all-around applications, delivering a bright and clear sound on pianos, overheads, guitars, rooms, strings, and more. It is perfect for capturing a wide range of audio sources with warmth and detail.
This microphone has a NOS AC701 Red Dot tube, original capsule, original box, new Drefahl DN221 PSU and vintage cable with original microphone holder. Serviced at Drefahl in December 2025.
