R1 MK2 : Really good vintage sounding
Nice ribbon microphone, sounds amazing on tenor sax and trumpet.
A bit boomy on the low end, can sound muddy on low frequencies.
The microphone is heavy and feels sturdy, the screws on the side can be tightened to lock it on an angled position.
The tone is really good if you are looking to record some brass or sax.
It can be damaged by phantom power and doesn't have any switches for filter or pad on it. It has the standard figure of 8 polar pattern.
Comes with a big stuffed bag for storing, really nicely made and robust.
