How do you pronounce...
« on: March 15, 2008, 08:56:19 AM »
I'm a reader, and I've never heard anyone pronounce Schoeps or Neumann. (I don't get out much!)

Does it sound like 'sheps' and n-eye-mahn?

Never mind.   :-[

I knew it was a bad idea as soon as I hit 'send', but I got a good laugh out of your suggested pronunciations. +t's

No.

Elaborate? Schoeps is german, so how would a person that speaks German pronounce this you think?

Check: http://www.soundonsound.com/forum/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=MRT&Number=233677&page=3&view=collapsed&sb=7&o=&fpart=2
Rather amusing :)

Exerpt:
Schöps. Ö is like I in Girl, Bird or U in Turn or E in Jerk. Germans write it OE if they can not find Ö in the character set. (Likewise, UE when they can't find Ü, which is the U in Fuel, Fuse, or OO in Groom, Broom in Scottish accent.)

Very close.  In German class, decades ago, we were instructed to shape our mouth like the vowel we were trying to pronounce (o, u or a) and say the letter "E" and this gets you very damned close.  Thank you, Mr. Kloos, my old HS German teacher.

Here's one of the requested answers as spoken by Dr. Schoeps himself, and recorded with guess what brand of microphone ...
