Description
The Royer R-10 is a compact ribbon microphone hand-built in Burbank, California, featuring a 2.5-micron aluminum ribbon element with a three-layer windscreen system and internal shock-mounting to protect against vibrations. It handles sound pressure levels up to 160 dB at 1 kHz and includes a custom-designed transformer for high overload threshold. The humbucking-wired transducer rejects electromagnetic noise, while the open grill design minimizes standing waves. Its low proximity effect makes it suitable for close-miking sources like guitar cabinets and acoustic instruments.
