Neumann BCM 705 Dynamic Broadcast Microphone
The BCM 705 Dynamic Broadcast Microphone from Neumann is a professional, dynamic broadcast microphone. The BCM 705's housing and head grille are identical to those of the BCM 104. The dynamic capsule features a hypercardioid directional characteristic, specifically designed for speech reproduction at close range. Multi-level isolation from structure-borne noise and an elastic mount ensure operation free of interference, even in a lively studio environment. The microphone head grille twists off easily for quick cleaning.
The frequency response has a light treble boost, in the region from 2 kHz to 9 kHz, aiding the speech intelligibility. The bass frequency response is designed to compensate for the overemphasis of the bass caused by the proximity effect.

A pop screen not only prevents the occurrence of plosive pop noises in vocal recordings, but also efficiently prevents unwanted particles from settling on the diaphragm.

The preferred mode of operation is to suspend the BCM 705 from a standard studio boom arm. A thread adapter to fit different connector threads is included. In order to provide protection from structure-borne noise, both the capsule and the microphone in its mount are elastically suspended.
This microphone is part of the B&H Virtual Mic Locker, an online tool to help our valued customers determine the sonic differences between popular microphones for podcasting and voice over work. Each microphone was recorded using a Grace Design M103 preamp into a Presonus Quantum 2626 interface.
Features
  • Dynamic capsule
  • Hypercardioid directional characteristic
  • Integrated pop protection
  • Integrated suspension
  • Easy removal and cleaning of microphone head grille (with bayonet mount)
  • Mechanical compatibility with standard studio boom arms
  • Multi-level isolation from structure-borne noise
  • No power supply required

Neumann NDH 20 Closed-Back Studio Headphones

Designed for tracking, mixing, and critical listening, the Neumann NDH 20 Headphones offer a closed-back circumaural fit as well as a delineated sonic image. The headphones make use of 38mm drivers that employ a high-gauss neodymium magnet to ensure a response devoid of distortion and coloration. They provide a frequency response of 5 Hz to 30 kHz.

Many other closed-back headphones supply nasty resonances in the midrange, which make it difficult to make accurately informed mixing decisions. This pair was designed to avoid such pitfalls to give you a sound and soundstage similar to that of Neumann's line of studio loudspeakers.

The NDH 20's adjustable headband is constructed from steel while the earcups are fashioned out of lightweight aluminum. For earpads, you get cushioning memory foam that supplies hours of comfort.

When you're done with the headphones, simply fold them up and put them in a soft-cloth bag. Two detachable cables are included, one straight and the other coiled. A 1/4" adapter is also supplied.

Key Features at a Glance
  • Linear sound balance similar to Neumann's acclaimed studio monitors
  • Isolation allows working in noisy environments
  • Transparent sound 
  • Long-lasting comfort
  • Easy transportation thanks to foldable design and soft cloth bag

Can this mic be mounted inside the ISOVOX 2 portable iso booth, or does it have to be mounted on a boom?
Asked by: Yarrow
Yes, this mic will fit, but it may sit a little bit high.

Does this mic require an inline mic amp, like the Shure SM7B tends to?
Asked by: TJ
It depends on the built-in mic preamp on the device that the mic is connecting to. Some mixers and amplifiers do supply a sufficient amount of power to achieve the desired level for a SM7B or BMC 705. So an inline mic booster such as the Cloudlifter CL-1 (B&H # CLCL1) may not be necessary though many users do like having the additional headroom it can provide.

How good is this mic for recording vocals - when I need a dynamic mic, that also hangs down from a boom arm?
Asked by: TJ
Although it was originally designed for speech applications, the BCM 705 can certainly be used for recording vocals with excellent results.

Between the BMC 705 and the SM7B, which do you think picks up less room noise? I will be recording only vocals in an area/small space without soundproofing. I like both these mics, for different reasons. Or do you have a better suggestion than either of these? I'm connecting to a Blue Compass boom. Thanks.
Asked by: TJ
I have both, and an untreated room. I do use a noise gate on both, but I think the Neumann has the edge in noise rejection. Plus--it's just a cool looking mouth. If you tend to eat the mic like I do, go with the Neumann.

HI, I have seen 2 different BCM 705 designs. Both have the same capsule. One has the capsule suspended using elastic. The other the capsule is bolted down and there is a metal pop filter in front of it. The second one is definitely not the BCM 104. Have you sceen any of these?
Asked by: Antonio
We are unaware of the two different capsule designs you mention for the Neumann BCM 705 Dynamic Broadcast Microphone. Please email [email protected] if you would like to discuss further.
