i m a big fan of all those vintage mics
i had the chance to record with some of the best and most expensive mics in the world< thank you emi> but would not want to spend the money to buy one of them today because they are rather expensive
i m looking for the best or closest copy/clone of a
u87 < the original>
u67
u47 '

Is the AT4050 a Japanese copy of the Neumann?

They seem very similar in many ways. I'm curious about the coloration between the two. I own an AT4040.

The intent is putting a multi-pattern mic on my wish list.
