Very nice microphone
TeoMand 12.06.2024
I bought Neumann MCM 114 to use as a stage microphone for my flamenco guitar and replace microphone on a stand.

Very solid build quality (this is what I did not like about DPA), not flimsy at all and in general does not feel like it is going to let me down soon.

Little big bigger clamp but it was not a problem for me.

Soundwise, it is clearer, more natural than DPA and in general I liked it a lot more. Overall, sound quality coming from this little microphone is really incredible. Very close to KM184. One thing that put me off was the rumble in the low register that I noticed. Fretboard sounds and mechanical noise (from the clamp, my body touching the guitar etc.) were just too audiable for my taste. HPF helped a lot, but even with a cut under 150 HZ and changing the capsule distance from the guitar, the noises were still audiable (not too much, but they were there). I guess it is just a compromise for the practicality, size, and ease of use that MCM 114 offers.

Personally, I had a very, very difficult decision and decided to go for a good old SDC condenser mic on a stand. Too bad, because this little thing is really wonderful. If I have to decide between DPA 4099 and MCM 114, I would choose MCM 114. Good job Neumann.

Hope this will be helpfull to someone.

Beeindruckend gut
MeneerPaul 20.10.2022
Fast ein Jahr gewartet bis Neumann angefangen hat mi der Auslieferung aber sehr zufrieden jetzt. Passt auf Gitarren, Ukulelen und (mit extra Gummischeibe) Dulcimer. Nicht auf meine Geige aber dass macht nichts weil ich 's eh nicht spielen kann. Mit drei Finger geht's 'rauf und ab und keine Angst für Kratzer; auch auf sehr wertvolle customshop Instrumente.
Klang ist spitze: da kann kein einziger eingebauter Pickup auch nur in der Nähe kommen. Nur a bissel ausrichten und losgehen
Kein Feedback probleme bei mir. Es lässt DPA weit hinter sich. Das X-vive Fantomspeisegerät passt genau in das Etui dazu. Ich bin glücklich....

phantastische Lösung für Gitarre und Mandoline
supasini 30.03.2024
Bin von einem Kleinmembran-Kondenser (Rode NT1) auf Stativ nun auf diese Lösung umgestiegen.
Ich habe das Mikro jetzt in Kirche und bei Auftritten eingesetzt, es ist eine unglaublich gute Möglichkeit, eine Gitarre oder auch Mandoline exakt so klingen zu lassen, wie sie ist. Ich mische bei Gitarren noch etwas Piezo dazu (Taylor ES2-System in einer 812ce 12-fret DLX, einer 812ce-N und einer 654ce B.E.), aber insbesondere die schwierig natürlich abzunehmende Nylonsaiten-Gitarre gewinnt unglaublich.
Ausrichtung von oben am Griffbrett 12. Bund leicht Richtung Schallloch geneigt, 5-10 cm über dem Griffbrett (je nach gewünschter Lautstärke)
Meine Resonatorgitarre nehme ich auch damit ab, dann richte ich es auf den Resonator aus und klemme es unten an der Zarge.
Einziger Nachteil: ich muss jetzt bei jedem Instrumentenwechsel das Mikro umklemmen.
Mandoline funktioniert ebenfalls hervorragend, da ist nur die Positionierung etwas kniffliger, da das Instrument doch recht klein ist und man viel Platz zu Spielen benötigt.

Neumann MCM 114 Set Guitar
Giuni 08.10.2023
Having to amplify TOP acoustic guitars I wanted to buy one of the TOP stage microphones - Neumann MCM 114 Set Guitar - (important investment).
3 stars not for the quality and how much the microphone is performing but for how it came to me in its original packaging, so first I have to show some disappointment:
the product arrived badly packaged, Thomann assured me that the item MCM 114 Set Guitar is new, never opened nor manipulated, for this reason I must show disappointment towards the Neumann company (I will send a note of disappointment) that brings out a valuable and expensive product (Apple of microphones) with a summary packaging and, if so, in this wild market, buyers would no longer have any kind of reference on the purchase of new or used products. The product arrived in the original box where inside there was the box of the MC9 (guitar clip) and the bag of the MCM 114, and this is where I was amazed. Inside the bag the few components were placed in bulk with the mini jack of the AC 31 cable already connected and screwed to the MCM 100 (output stage); the latter not positioned in its seat and set inside; finally, the cable of the capsule KK 14 crushed in the closure of the bag. Absolutely a BAD presentation of a product like this.
That said, it is still too early to give a precise assessment of how the microphone sounds. The first impression trying it on my guitars, it could not be otherwise, the mini mic captures everything that comes out without equalization or reverberation; very precise in finger-style with all its nuances, attention also to the splints or even to the pressure of the fingers on the strings (out of tune notes). Appropriately directed excellent performance also the flat-style and bluegrass. Impressions with listening on closed headphones and with Acus Oneforstrings 8.
I compared the Neuman MCM 114 with the preamp systems on my 4 guitars I must say that there is no competition at all. Two guitars mount the "L.R. Baggs Anthem" system and the signal is processed by the dedicated preamplifier "L.R. Baggs Venue D.I." or by "L.R. Baggs - Para ACOUSTIC D.I.", despite finding this a great preamp system there is no competition with MCM 114 (20 vs 100). The other two guitars are equipped with a hybrid system: K&K Pure Mini (under the bridge) and MiniFlex 2 Mic Model-4 with one microphone under the bridge and one at the hole (this requires 9V phantom power), the output of the two signals with a stereo jack is sent to the preamplifier "L.R. Baggs - MixPro" which provides 9V power to the MiniFlex and manages both signals optimally; This is also an excellent preamp chain with a slightly more realistic sound that comes a little closer to the king (50 vs 100).
At the moment I can not give an evaluation regarding the use on stage and the problems related to acoustic feedback.
I think such a microphone is good for acoustic guitarists who love the sound of their guitar without, or almost never, using slight or strong equalizations to please the sound, otherwise it would be a wasted investment.
I hope it gives me good satisfaction, I'm ready to have fun.
