Description

The R 2 MkII is quite different from the R 1 series of mics. It features a ribbon transducer with a shorter and more narrow ribbon. It is darker sounding than the R 1 series since the higher frequencies roll off earlier.

The R 2 MkII will do wonders with both clean and distorted electrical guitar, with brass instruments and more. It is delivered with a metal shock mount and protective case.

Features

  • The unmatched natural and musical sound of a classical ribbon microphone combined with the consistent sound quality offered by the addition of active electronics
  • A stunning realism with the feeling of "being-there"
  • The typical large and mellow ribbon sound quality with a very smooth top end and an extended low end
  • A fast and life-like transient reproduction
  • An ultra-high SPL capability, 137 dB SPL (1% THD @ 1000 Hz) and a good sensitivity for a ribbon microphone of this type
  • A Figure-8 directional pattern for wide sweet spots both in the front and in the back of the microphone, zero spots towards the sides
  • A 42 mm long ribbon made of 2.5 microns thick aluminum foil
  • An internal shock mount for the ribbon and magnet assembly
  • A removable microphone cable, power supply, and a nice aluminum flight case
  • Manufactured of the finest materials for a great performance and long-term reliability
  • The R2 can be used with any standard mixer or preamp, preferrably with a balanced input
