Neumann KM54
[1967]
During a special televised performance in Studio One on 25 June 1967, Paul McCartney used the Neumann KM54 (fixed with this ‘golf ball’ windshield) to sing ‘All You Need Is Love’.
This fixed-cardioid miniature was released in 1954 and soon proved itself a popular vocal microphone for TV and radio.
In the studio, it saw frequent use on guitar amps, vocals and sometimes even bass.
‘KM’ stands for ‘Kleines Mikrofon’ or ‘little microphone’.
