I will keep you posted,
Thanks,

Hi, I am still learning about capsules and all of the choices for the different projects you offer. Is ChuckD's M7 capsule designed strictly for the u47 build, or will it work for this one (u67) as well? Obviously I will wait for your feedback on the other two that you have mentioned but, I was just curious. Thanks.

Du-67 Project will be using the most common K67 type Capsule ,
the D-U87 the K87 type, 

the M7 capsule however is my plan for the D-U47Fet wich will make this a perfect match for it, 
Hope this helps,

Dany,

You def don't want to use an M7 with this mic. I would go with one of Eric's (tskguy) or a Peluso or a real Neumann K67.
The U67 circuit is not designed to work with an M7 style capsule.

Well folks here we go,

So I have been lucky enough to be the very first Poctop u67 builder, Let me say a big thanks to Poctops tireless efforts the guy is truly a DIY freak and deservers nothing but our admiration!! So as soon as I finished my 67 build I started work on tweaking my capsule. After a good week of effort I feel I have what I think is pretty close to the original sound of the Neumann k67 capsule. At least I think so, the clips that I have here are the first of multiple test recordings I have planned. More will be done with our friend Wave tomorrow!! The first is me playing guitar pretty badly  I am a drummer by trade! 312 pre amp in to my fireface at 24 bit 44.1. Second is my very nice wife. Same setup with a pop screen, the third is a voice over test I did again same 312 to fireface setup. I also have some build pics as well. Enjoy!!

I would like one of these if availiable: New U87 PCB for Large U67-U87 Mic Body.  Thanks

3 u67 Ami T67 and 2 u87. Thanks ;D

OK, I cave in.

Since I already own the original (after saving long and hard), I desperately tried not to buy the boards, but to limit myself and just help promoting this nice project.

Resistance is futile.

You win, Dany.

One external tranny set for me, please.

And one external set for me. Thanks.

Hi Danny,



    you bloomin' marvel!


  I'd very much like to have an AMI type u67 set if possible. (Sorry, I've been away)


    many, many thanks

I am in for one BV12 PCB if there are any left

Much Thanks

Hi, please forgive my naivety, but I was referred here for my search for a U67. I honestly can't tell exactly what's being offered here. I understand what PCB's and transformers are, but I'm not so much a part of the DIY world, yet.

Is one of these something I can use to make one of my U87's a really close approximation of a U67, or is this a kit for a specific (and what is the body and head basket pictured)?

Apologies for the cluelessness.

This is your common DIY motif of replacing everything inside of a donor mic body to emulate a vintage/expensive circuit. Poctop has made a set of PCB's that fit into the similar-but-not-exactly-the-same Cathedral Pipes U-67/U-87 style donor mic body. The transformer is purchased seperately from one of the shortlist of manufacturers that produces a U-67 style transformer (which PCB you order is based on which transformer you want to use). The capsule is purchased in the same manner. Electronics are sourced from an online vendor like Mouser or Digikey.

I'm not sure if the available PCB's will fit in an original U-87, but someone more knowledgable on that front should chime in soon.

If they're still available I'd love 2 x u87 for U67 body PCBs
and 2 x AMI style U67 PCB Kits

Cheers
Jon

 

[bkbirge]

I would like two kits for the AMI t67 please.

James, thank you very much!

Can not resist any longer...
I'll take one for the external transformer!

Can not resist any longer...

damn it , me neither .

i´d like to preorder one set for external transformers , as well.

(though i´m still waiting on the measurements of the PCB´s . fits XY body is for those who build their own bodies a little few information.
you think you could post them , very pretty please !)
