It was specifically designed for professional applications in both critical recording studio environments and demanding live stage setups. Thanks to its flat frequency response, excellent phase linearity, and ability to handle extremely high sound pressure levels, this model is the absolute perfect choice for miking loud electric guitar cabinets, brass instruments, and drum kits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core component of this microphone is a 2.5-micron, ultra-thin pure aluminum ribbon element, safeguarded by a custom 3-layer windscreen system and an internally shock-mounted ribbon transducer. This robust design not only minimizes the negative impact of plosives and strong bursts of air but also effectively reduces the unwanted proximity effect on close-miking. Similar to Royer's more expensive models, it utilizes their patented offset ribbon technology, which effortlessly handles sound sources peaking up to an astonishing 160 dB at 1 kHz while maintaining crystal clear, distortion-free audio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to its completely passive electronic design (featuring no active internal preamps), the R-10 eliminates any potential for internal electronic overload or high-frequency phase distortion. It features a classic figure-8 (bi-directional) polar pattern, which captures sound equally from the front and back while offering immense sound rejection from the sides. A custom-designed impedance-matching transformer purposefully lowers its sensitivity compared to flagship models (like the R-121), providing massively increased headroom for close-miking very loud sources.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncredible SPL handling capabilities for close-miking loud sources (up to 160 dB @ 1 kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero internal active electronics to overload or create distortion under high sound pressure\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatented offset ribbon transducer utilizing a 2.5-micron pure aluminum element\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom 3-layer windscreen system providing superior protection against air blasts and plosives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal shock mount mechanism isolating the delicate ribbon from physical vibrations\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrue figure-8 polar pattern delivering equal sensitivity from both the front and rear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRibbon element is completely unaffected by heat or high humidity levels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact profile paired with a swivel mount for flexible and non-intrusive placement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExceptional phase linearity providing an incredibly smooth and natural sonic signature\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandcrafted in California by the ribbon microphone experts at Royer Labs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransducer Type: Passive Ribbon Microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePolar Pattern: Figure-8 (Bi-Directional)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenerating Element: 2.5-micron pure aluminum ribbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMagnetic Assembly: Rare Earth Neodymium magnets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency Response: 30 Hz - 15 kHz (+\/- 3 dB)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSensitivity: -54 dBv Ref. 1 V\/Pa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput Impedance: 100 Ohms (nominal) balanced\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum SPL: \u0026gt; 135 dB (@ 50 Hz), 160 dB (@ 1 kHz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRecommended Load Impedance: 700 Ohms or greater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConnector Type: Male XLR 3-pin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions (L x Diameter): 149 x 35 mm (5.8\" x 1.37\")\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight: 368 g (13 oz)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncluded Accessories: Swivel microphone mount, protective mic sock, and carrying case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n","brand":"Royer Labs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53259272749393,"sku":"48281","price":630.91,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/RoyerLabsR101.jpg?v=1773769339","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/en-fr\/products\/royer-labs-r10","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
