Derek Ali’s engineering skills were tested by the amount of live recording that took place in the making of To Pimp A Butterfly. “I mostly use our Stephen Paul-modified Telefunken U47 to record Kendrick, going through a Neve 1073 mic pre and then a Tube-Tech CL1B compressor, which gives a great, fat, warm vocal sound, especially in conjunction with the U47. Sometimes I’ll run his vocals through a Pultec EQP-1A3. On ‘Alright’ I used a U67 instead of a U47 on his voice and on ‘For Free?’ two Electro-Voice mics, the RE20 and the 666. We stacked the two EV mics on top of each other, and this gave a warm, almost distorted sound.

“For acoustic guitar parts, I mostly used the N22. ‘Ordinary World’ was done before I had that mic, though, so I think I used a [Neumann or Telefunken] U47 on that one.'

Used for the piano on 'the orchestral track recordings' of *Foreign Affairs*, as is visible in producer 'Bones' Howe's '[d]iagram for the Foreign Affairs sessions at Wally Heider Studio 4 showing the layout used for the orchestral track recordings' from [this February 2004 *Sound on Sound* interview](https://www.soundonsound.com/people/bones-howe-tom-waits). Howe specifies a Telefunken version while recounting the sessions for Ornette Coleman's *The Shape of Jazz to Come* and *Change of the Century*. > 'I set them up in a square, one in each corner of an imaginary room in the studio, close together, all facing the centre of the square. I had set up the microphones before they got there: I had an RCA 77 on Ornette's alto sax — the white plastic one he was notorious for playing — and a 77 on Don Cherry's pocket trumpet, a Telefunken U47 on Charlie's bass, and the drums were miked with a U47 as an overhead and a 77 over the hat and snare. We were recording live to mono and two-track at the same time. I liked this setup so much that I made sure I wrote it down, and I still have that setup sheet to this day. I would use it to record a lot of albums.'

more - Bob Dylan
According to producer Al Schmitt, a Telefunken U47 was used to record Dylan's vocals for *Shadows in the Night*. > “I used Capitol’s Neumann U47 on Bob’s vocals. It’s the very same microphone that was used on Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Nat King Cole. It’s a great–sounding microphone. Fortunately, because I work a lot at Capitol, I get to use it frequently, and I’ve had it on Paul McCartney and on Diana Krall and others. The mic was maybe nine or 10 inches away from Bob, with a windscreen. Pops and esses were no problem. I used the Neve 1073 mic pres in the old Neve desk at Capitol on all the mics. It has an amazing sound, with lots of punch and warmth. So Bob’s 47 went through that. The only compression I used on the entire album was on Bob’s voice, a tiny bit of an old mono Fairchild. I barely touched it, I used it mainly for the tube sound. It just added some warmth. On the desk I also mixed in some of Capitol’s live chamber number four on his voice. Despite Schmitt's mention of Neumann, [Sinatra's U47](https://equipboard.com/pros/frank-sinatra/telefunken-u47-microphone) is famous for bearing the Telefunken brand.

more - John Legend
'I usually record John through a Telefunken U47 from the late 40s. That’s usually my go-to mic on John — I found that I really like him through the classic U47. It’s just such a fantastic mic, it has a lot of great clarity and body for him. John’s a pretty strong singer, and that mic seems to take it pretty well. It’s worth noting that I’ve recorded all his vocals on the album to tape. That adds some nice upper harmonics, and it has a very nice saturation and character to it. This vocal has a dark slap-back delay. Mostly, the signal path would be a U47 going to a Universal Audio 1176, or sometimes an LA2A compressor. Preamp-wise mostly we went through Neve 1073’s or 1081’s. I’m going for character, that’s the main thing. I don’t want neutral, I want character. The 1176 or the Neve impart character on it.' — Dave Tozer, executive producer of *Love in the Future*
more - Lana Del Rey
Producer Brandon Lowry states in [this](http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/apr12/articles/it-0412.htm) Sound On Sound article: 'She has a great voice in general, but it is at its most unique in the alto range, so we wanted her voice to be in that range, and the Telefunken U47 AE worked great for that.'

> I've always favoured the Neumann U47. I don't own one, but whenever there's one available I always try and use it for vocals. AKG Dynamics on toms-toms. I normally favour a condenser mic for snare drums like a Neumann 84, which is unusual because most engineers prefer dynamics on snare drums.

more - Daniel Lanois
'I like the Sennheiser 409 on amps. For a different sound I like a ribbon mic. Acoustic guitar recordings are tough. If you can have a nice big mic further back from the instrument that's usually the best. Further back means no booming. Lately I've enjoyed a U47 or C37A with a 1066 preamp.'
more - Diana Krall
According to this July 27, 2017 *Mix Online* interview with producer Al Schmitt, a Telefunken U47 was used for Krall's vocals on *Turn Up the Quiet*. > “The Neumann U47 sounded fantastic on Diana,” Schmitt says. “It’s my go-to vocal mic, the same one Sinatra used on his Capitol records. I placed it about five or six inches from Diana. I also used a Neve 1073 preamplifier and just a touch of my Fairchild 660 compressor for the warmth of its tubes, compressed a dB or two. I ran Diana’s voice through Capitol Echo Chamber #4, blended with my Bricasti Design [Model 7 Stereo] reverb to get the sound that I want.” Despite Schmitt's mention of Neumann, [Sinatra's U47](https://equipboard.com/pros/frank-sinatra/telefunken-u47-microphone) is famous for bearing the Telefunken brand. Krall's use of it is supported by the fact that [*Turn Up the Quiet* was recorded at Capitol Studios](https://www.allmusic.com/album/turn-up-the-quiet-mw0003020197). It is also mentioned by Schmitt in [this July 15, 2015 *Voice Council* Magazine interview](http://www.voicecouncil.com/the-man-whos-recorded-sinatra-krall-and-dylan/). > The U47 – that’s the one I used on Bublé, Paul McCartney and so many others. (..) For Diana Krall and Paul McCartney (and others) I used a Neumann Tube U47 into Neve Preamp and then into a Fairchild compressor. That, to me, is the ultimate.
more - Frank Sinatra
In this video, at minute 0:28, Frank can be seen using the U47 in a recording session. [A *Sound on Sound* interview](https://www.soundonsound.com/people/classic-tracks-frank-sinatra-ive-got-you-under-my-skin) featuring recording engineer John Palladino mentions that Sinatra first used the mic when he signed with Capitol Records. > 'Another advantage to the U47 was the directional pattern that favoured the voice and didn't allow it to be drowned out by the orchestra. That's why it got to be tremendously popular and became an industry standard in the days when singers like Frank Sinatra recorded in the studio with the band.” [This article](https://www.homebrewaudio.com/the-frank-sinatra-microphone/) by Home Brew Audio states that 'Frank loved it so much that he insisted on using no other mic after 1950. He called it his 'Telly.' The microphone is also depicted in [the artwork for *Duets*](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DNo81elV4AEKV1l.jpg) and [*Duets II*](http://www.sinatra.com/sites/g/files/aaj7201/f/Duets%20II.jpg).
more - Nat King Cole
'At one point, instead of being in a vocal booth, she came out and stood right there with the orchestra, à la Frank Sinatra. She was amazing. I used a Neumann U67 on her voice, along with just 2dB of a Summit limiter and a Neve 1073 preamp. I like the 67 a lot, it seems to work well on vocals, and with her it worked really well. When her father recorded 'Unforgettable', he used a 47, and the 67 matched up pretty well with that.' — Al Schmitt on the recording of Natalie Cole's cover of Nat King Cole's 'Unforgettable', in [this *Sound On Sound* article](https://www.soundonsound.com/techniques/classic-tracks-natalie-cole-nat-king-cole-unforgettable) The U47 is also visible in [this photo](https://www.edge-prints.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/84889394-Nat-King-Cole1.jpg).

In this *TapeOp* interview, sound engineer Steve King stated he ran Franklin through a U47 for 'What Now My Love' off of Frank Sinatra's *Duets*. It was an anecdote King made while discussing the recording of Eminem's 'Lose Yourself'. > Earlier with Marshall I used the Neve 1073 preamp and a U47. I recorded Aretha Franklin for the Frank Sinatra *Duets* record with the Neve, and I made sure to run Frank's voice through all my stuff just for karma! Given that *Duets* was recorded at Capitol Studios, this U47 was most likely a Telefunken version.
more - Joe Williams
Used on *Just the Blues*, as mentioned in this *Sound on Sound* interview with producer Bruce Swedien. > **Telefunken U47** > > 'I still have one of the two U47s that I bought new in 1953, and will still frequently be first choice on lead vocal. This is a mic that can be used on a ballad or on a very aggressive rock track. It has a slight peak in its frequency response at around 7kHz, which gives it a feeling of natural presence. It also has a slight peak in the low end around 100Hz. This gives it a warm, rich sound. For Joe Williams, another mic would never have worked as well. I figured out that it was the mic for him when I heard him speak. After you've been doing this for as long as I have, you begin to have instinctive sonic reactions, and it saves a lot of time!” > > Hear it on.. Joe Williams in the Count Basie Band's Just The Blues
