{"product_id":"ocean-way-audio-rm1","title":"Ocean Way Audio RM1","description":"\u003ch3\u003eThe Artist’s Microphone\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eOcean Way RM1\u003c\/strong\u003e microphone was designed, developed and engineered by pro-audio transducer inventor and technologist Cliff Henricksen. Cliff’s “one foot on the bandstand, one foot in the lab” musical life gives a balanced left-brain\/right-brain approach to creating useful, technically-advanced and beautiful-sounding tools for all artists in the sound arts. The microphones are machined and assembled exclusively in America.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe RM1 was created to improve on well-known qualities of “large-format ribbon microphones”, namely low sensitivity (leading to a noisy processed signal), dull spectral output and difficult p-pop response.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eThe RM1 sounds beautiful\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe RM1’s diaphragm is made from exquisitely-thin aluminum. It vibrates in a very intense magnetic field, creating unusually high output. The diaphragm’s output is amplified by a carefully-engineered and artistically-voiced, ultra-low-noise phantom-powered preamplifier, developed in collaboration with the LR Baggs Company of Nipomo, California. This combination gives the user a true plug-and-play setup that rarely needs equalization, even in complex ensemble mixes. The goal of “normal sound” (i.e., “high fidelity”) is a pleasant (and very useful) surprise to the first-time user. Integration of “SuperQuiet®” technology assures sonic purity, free of unwanted noise (see below).\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eThe Grill and Pop-Filter System\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eA two-stage acoustically-transparent, non-resonant debris and pop\/explosives filter system prevents the usual artifact of close-proximity pickup for vocals and instruments: First-stage, non-metallic, non-resonant protective grille of physically-tough, open-air, woven Nylon-Spandex™. Second-stage, integral, internal, sheer-knit, acoustically-transparent pop\/debris filter also improves lose vocal applications and added ribbon protection. Using an RM1, an artist can simply go to work and not have to think about “technical issues” involving sonic aesthetics (Equalization and p-pop signal overload).\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eThe RM1 looks beautiful\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAluminum case components are softened and matte-surfaced\/softened as part of the manufacturing process and finished with an attractive but unassuming hard-anodize outer coating. The first-stage grille is stretched so that it exhibits a graceful geometric form and pleasing color. The microphone was designed as a pure “Form Follows Function” creation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ocean Way Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44450055454823,"sku":"70457","price":2100.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/ocean-way-rm1_70457_1_119aead6-ffad-4b43-9a4d-d37ecaa974a8.jpg?v=1787091500","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/ocean-way-audio-rm1","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
