2. Safety instructions
The microphone has the intended purpose of con-
verting acoustic signals into electrical signals.
Connect the microphone only to microphone in-
puts and devices which supply 48 V of phantom
power in accordance with IEC 6198.
Repairs and servicing are to be carried out only
by experienced, authorized service personnel.
Unauthorized opening or modification of the
equipment shall void the warranty.
Use the equipment only under the conditions
specified in the "Technical data" section. Allow
the equipment to adjust to the ambient tempera-
ture before switching it on. Do not operate the
equipment if it has been damaged during trans-
port.
Always run cables in such a way that there is no
risk of tripping over them.
Unless required for operation, ensure that liquids
and electrically conductive objects are kept at a
safe distance from the equipment and its connec-
tions.
EN
Do not use solvents or aggressive cleansers for
cleaning purposes.
Dispose of the equipment in accordance with the
regulations applicable to the respective country.
3. Brief description
The TLM 10 is a condenser studio microphone
with transformerless (TLM) circuit technology
and a cardioid directional characteristic.
The microphone features exceptionally clean
sound transmission which is free of coloration,
with extremely low self-noise and an extensive
dynamic range.
The capsule has a linear frequency response up
to approximately 5 kHz, above which there is a
broad, flat presence boost.

5. Setup
Mounting the microphone
Attach the microphone to a stable, sturdy stand.
Use an elastic suspension, if necessary, for the
mechanical suppression of structure-borne noise.
For this purpose set the microphone into the inner
cage from above, and secure it to the inner cage
with the threaded nut. If required, use a wind-
screen or popscreen from our range of accesso-
ries in order to suppress wind or pop noise.
Connecting the microphone
Caution: A n incorrect supply voltage can dam-
age the microphone!
Attach the microphone only to a power supply
unit, a microphone preamplifier, a mixing console
or other equipment which has phantom power
with 48 V (P 48), in accordance with IEC 6198.
Any P 48 power supply equipment can be used
which supplies at least mA per channel.
C aution: Very loud noise can damage loud-
speakers or your hearing!
Minimize the volume of connected playback and
recording equipment before connecting the mi-
crophone.
Using a suitable cable, connect the microphone
to the microphone input of the audio equipment
to be used for subsequent processing, or to the
designated P 48 power supply equipment. Infor-
mation concerning connector assignment can be
found in the "Technical data" section.
When connecting the cables, ensure that the con-
nectors are locked correctly. Run the cables in
such a way that there is no risk of tripping over
them.
Address the microphone from the side on which
the Neumann logo is located.
Gradually increase the volume of the connected
equipment.
Set the gain of the connected equipment so that
no distortion occurs at the highest sound pres-
sure level.
Suppressing noise interference
The frequency response of the TLM 10 extends
below 0 Hz. The microphone is of course corre-
spondingly sensitive to low-frequency interfer-
ence such as structure-borne noise and wind or
pop noise. Depending upon the situation, the use
of an elastic suspension, a windscreen and/or a
popscreen is therefore recommended.
Sound test
Simply speak into the microphone. Do not blow
into the microphone or subject it to pop noise,
since this can easily result in hazardous sound
pressure levels.
6. Shutdown and storage
Before switching off the microphone or discon-
necting the cables, reduce the volume of con-
nected equipment.
Only then should the phantom power be switched
off.
Disconnect the cables.
When disconnecting a cable, always pull only on
the connector and not on the cable itself.
Microphones which are not in use should not be
allowed to remain on the stand gathering dust. A
microphone which is unused for a prolonged pe-
riod should be stored under normal atmospheric
conditions, and should be protected from dust.
For this purpose, use a lint-free, air-permeable
dust cover or the original packaging of the micro-
phone.
