Pill-shaped studio ribbon mic.
The R84A is a pill-shaped, side-address, phantom-powered ribbon microphone with a bidirectional (or figure-of-8) pickup pattern. It is assembled with the same Big Ribbon and tuning (16.5Hz) as the R44 and shares many of the unique sound characteristics with its historic predecessor. With phantom-powered JFET electronics and a custom German transformer, the R84A achieves optimal performance with a wide choice of preamps ranging from vintage high-end models to USB audio interfaces in home studio setups. Designed to accommodate distant and medium miking duties, it exhibits a flat frequency response when placed 3 feet (1 meter) away from the source. As a result, the mic performs well on a variety of recording applications including vocals, brass, strings, woodwinds, guitars and drums. The R84A ribbon microphone continues to gain followers with its natural sound, articulate midrange and forgiving nature. Whether used for vocals or instruments, its performance is intimate, warm and detailed, yet never harsh.
