RM 700 : t.bone RM 700
Used the t.bone RM 700 on vocals, guitars ( acoustic and elec ) and as room mic on drumkits, it works perfectly as a room mic it offers all the dark ambience you expect from a ribbon mic to endure your mix of the drumkit, but its a bit darker than it should, it has an "over the top" boost on low frequencies so it wont make a good choice for overhead micing, also because of that "boost" on the low freqs and the proximity effect its also not a good choice for vocals,
But it makes an exceptional good choise for guitar micing especially for clean electric guitars, it offers an wonderful dark "round shaped" sound.
Overall, its more than a usefull mic to have, it has GREAT metalic construction,very solid, it has all the "good" effects of a norma(expensive) ribbon mic in a very very low price and not so "sensitive" as the other ribbon mics are,
A very nice mic to have in your collection with plenty of uses, professionaly or not.
P.S. used on 4 different pre amps (api, golden age,allen&heath) and the pre amps from a focusrite scarlet 10i20, worked fine on all of them, as a ribbon i expected to be sensitive so i pushed it on the limit and more, but nothing happened the mic had no problem still working fine.
