Ribbon mic?


Recommended Posts

I'm really wanting to get some ribbon mics in my studio. I'm thinking of using them for guitar cabinets and Over heads and room ambience. A Royer is abit out of my price range of $550-$600 each, though i may save and just get one of those. I've realy got no idea what to get, I've read about the S.E Electronics Ribbon mic which seems decent and theres the cheapy Nady things :'( But thought I'd try the minds of SC to see whos using what and so on. Thanks guys.

Hi fordia88,

I just did some quick research and a couple of ribbon microphones caught my eye...

- Samson VR88 $399.99 US

- Electro-Harmonix EH-R1 (Under "Other" and then "Microphones") for $299.99 US

I am not so sure about the Nady or Apex... Ya get what ya pay for... Hope this helps...

 

Kindest Regards,

 

Jerry

If you haven't picked up your ribbon yet, I really like these:

They wont give you that same raw vintage sound of a well cared for RCA, but they are pretty rich.

 

wow, that looks pretty awesome! we have a ribbon, its a nice square design with a gold tape around the edges. brilliant sound. :voiceover:
