It \r\nincorporates many advancements pioneered by Royer Labs, including \r\nmulti-layered wind screening for superior protection from air blasts and\r\n plosives. The screening also provides reduced proximity effect, \r\nallowing for closer miking with less bass buildup. Throw it on a guitar \r\ncabinet, hit record, play it back, smile.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e\r\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eFeatures\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh SPL capabilities for electric guitar and percussion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-layered wind screen provides superior protection to ribbon element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo internal electronics to overload or produce distortion up to maximum SPL rating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtremely low residual noise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRibbon element not affected by heat or humidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAbsence of high-frequency peaks, \"ringing\" and phase shifts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEqual sensitivity from front or back of element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\nThe ribbon element's smooth frequency response and phase linearity \r\nimpart a warm, analog feel to digital recordings, where the depth and \r\nrealism on playback feels more like tape rolling than digits being \r\ncomputed. A perfect choice for electric guitars, brass instruments and \r\ndrums, the R-101's figure-8 pattern also conveys superb ambience and \r\ndepth when used for room miking applications.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003ePatented Offset Ribbon Technology\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThe R-101 incorporates Royer's patented offset-ribbon technology and a \r\nlow mass, 2.5-micron aluminum (99.9% pure) ribbon element. The ribbon \r\ntransducer's flux-frame and rare earth Neodymium magnets create a \r\npowerful magnetic field which increases sensitivity while reducing stray\r\n magnetic radiation.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThe R-101's offset-ribbon transducer (Patent # 6,434,252) positions the \r\nribbon element towards the front (logo) side of the microphone body. \r\nThis proprietary arrangement gives the ribbon element more room to move \r\nwithin the prime magnetic field and maintain full frequency response \r\nduring high SPL recordings. It's an integral part of the magic in all \r\nRoyer R-series microphones.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\nThe offset-ribbon transducer also gives you the option of a brighter \r\nresponse when recording lower SPL sound sources on the back side (3 feet\r\n and closer; phase reversed in this position). The back side of the mic \r\nis often preferred on vocals, acoustic guitars and other stringed \r\ninstruments.\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cbr\u003e\r\n\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003eThe Warranty\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\r\nLike all Royer mics, the R-101 comes with a lifetime warranty to the original owner and the first re-ribbon is free.","brand":"Royer Labs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449236123751,"sku":"16073","price":799.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/royer_r-101_1_zoom.jpg?v=1787088254","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/royer-labs-r-101","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
