Thank you for purchasing the Samson R21S Dynamic Microphone. The R21S dynamic
microphone brings a high level of accuracy and audio performance to vocal miking appli-
cations.
The R21S is a hand held dynamic microphone that excels in both live performance and
recording applications. Equipped with a linear frequency response for
superior reproduction, it is also designed to withstand high sound pressure
levels. Extremely sensitive, it employs a tight cardioid pattern to reduce feedback.
A special shock-mounted element minimizes handling noise and provides
additional protection. The R21S also features an on/off switch with a switch lock.
Features
The Samson R21S utilizes state-of-the-art microphone technology and is
engineered to the finest detail. Here are some of its main features:
• Tight cardioid polar pattern minimizes feedback problems and effectively rejects
signals not originating directly in front of the mic capsule.
• Extended range frequency response for optimum reproduction and
exceptionally clear, crisp sound.
• Special shock-mounting allows movement of the mic element to greatly reduce
handling noise.
• On/off switch with a switch lock to protect against performer/speaker accidentally
switching the R21S off.
• Rugged zinc alloy die-casting case ensures reliable performance in even the most
demanding environments.
• Lightweight and compact, the R21S can be mounted on any standard
microphone stand (using the included mic clip) or can be easily handheld
for long periods without inducing fatigue.
• Foam-lined impact resistant carrying case, 18 ft. XLR cable and mic clip included
with R21S single pack. Mic clip included with each mic with R21S 3-pack.
• Withstands high SPLs lending itself to a wide range of miking
situations.
• Ultra sensitive element picks up all of the nuances of any performance.
• Gold plated XLR Connector.
