Its ability to withstand 135 dB SPL @ 30 Hz makes it ideal for applications that were previously considered off limits to ribbon microphones. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe R-121 was developed through relatively recent advancements in magnetics, materials and mechanical construction techniques. The ribbon element's smooth frequency response and phase linearity, coupled with sensitivity levels surpassing those of \"classic\" ribbons, make this microphone an ideal choice for digital recording. The R121 delivers a consistent, natural acoustical performance with stunning realism. Widely used on electric guitars, brass instruments and drums, the R-121's figure-8 pattern also conveys superb ambiance and depth when used for room miking applications, orchestral and choral recordings. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe heart of the R 121 is its low mass, 2.5-micron, pure (99.99%) aluminum ribbon element. The R-121’s unique, patented offset-ribbon transducer assembly incorporates rare earth Neodymium magnets in a specially designed flux-frame, which forms a powerful magnetic field while reducing unwanted stray magnetic radiation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe R-121’s offset-ribbon design positions the ribbon element towards the front of the microphone body, which allows for higher SPL handling on the front (logo) side and the option of a brighter response when recording lower SPL sound sources on the back side (3 feet and closer; phase reversed in this position). \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eRecommended Applications\u003c\/b\u003e \r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eClose miking \r\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectric \u0026amp; acoustic guitar \r\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrum overheads, kick drum (see manual for position), room miking \r\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePercussion instruments \r\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrass, horn sections \r\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStrings - solo \u0026amp; sections \r\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAcoustic piano \r\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVocals \r\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLive events – recording and sound reinforcement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\nThe \u003cb\u003eRoyer Labs Sling-Shock\u003c\/b\u003e is designed to fit Royer 1\" diameter microphones (R-121, R-122, R-122V,SF-12), and can accommodate similarly sized microphones (1-inch +\/- 1\/8-inch). Future Sling-Shock models will accommodate a wide variety of microphone sizes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eA radical departure from traditional shock mount designs, the Sling-Shock utilizes a two-part mechanism consisting of non-resonant nylon cord and damped tensioning springs. This highly effective vibration-damping system improves the performance of ribbon, condenser and dynamic microphones wherever vibration is a concern, reducing rumble and thumps while holding the microphone securely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTraditional shock mounts rely on rubber bushings and stretched elastic cords as the main dampening mechanisms. These materials provide varying degrees of effectiveness, and they all degrade and fail over time. The Sling-Shock's non-rubberized components will not degrade, and they allow the user to make tension adjustments when required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the Royer tradition, the Sling-Shock is handcrafted in Burbank, California, using only the finest materials. It is backed by an unconditional five-year manufacturer’s warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Royer Labs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449911668839,"sku":"57475","price":1570.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/royer-r-121-w-rsm-ss1-mount_5b7a13a5-b7bc-4fa2-8bc0-49389435283e.jpg?v=1787090921","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/royer-labs-r-121-rsm-ss1-sling-shock-bundle","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
