Ribbon Microphone
Offering a classic ribbon character in the form of a near-field, the dual-tone AEA R92 functions as a versatile creative tool with innumerable possibilities. Similar in sound to the R84, but with a more pronounced midrange and minimized proximity effect, the R92 performs brilliantly when up close to brass, guitar amps, kick drum, and percussion. One side of the R92 yields a tonality distinct from the other, essentially providing two mics in one giving options on different sources. When supplemented with a brighter mic signal, the R92 serves to balance the scales in a mix with its low-end clarity and warm midrange.
