INTRODUCTION
The R84 and the R84A are pill-shaped, side-address, ribbon
microphones with a bidirectional pickup pattern. They are
assembled with the same Big Ribbon™ tuning (16.5 Hz) as the AEA/
RCA R44 and share many of the unique sound characteristics with
their historic predecessor. Designed to accommodate distant and
medium miking duties, they exhibit a flat frequency response when
placed 3 feet (1 meter) away from the source. As a result, the mic
performs well on a variety of recording applications including
vocals, brass, strings, woodwinds, guitars, and drums. R84 series
microphones continue to gain followers with their natural sound,
articulate midrange and forgiving nature. Whether used on vocals
or instruments, their performance is intimate, warm and detailed,
yet never harsh.
