The R-10 is a passive mono ribbon microphone created for studio and live use. The mic has a 2.5-micron ribbon element the same as in Royers R-121 and a David Royer custom designed transformer for high overload threshold. Its ribbon transducer is wired for humbucking to reject electromagnetically induced noise. The R-10 incorporates the proven 3-layer protective windscreen system and internally shock-mounted ribbon transducer. The R-10 is an excellent Royer for studio and live electric guitars capturing all the low end midrange warmth and punch the industry has come to expect from a Royer. Its also an excellent choice for brass instruments percussion various drum positions and many stringed instrumentsuse anywhere a ribbon is called for. The R-10 also takes EQ beautifully when more highs are needed.
