forward towards the front side of the microphone, where the
internal dampening screen is much closer to the ribbon element.
Rear-side recordings of loud, low-frequency sounds, or vocal-
ists with no pop filter, can drive the ribbon into the front damp-
ening screen, creating noise and possibly damaging the ribbon
element. Limit back side recording on your R-122 to lower SPL
sound sources and the microphone will be fine.
Care & Maintenance
The R-122 is a well-built precision instrument. All that is
required to ensure proper operation of this microphone is to fol-
low some commonsense rules.
1. Avoid transducer damage by not exposing the microphone to
severe shock or vibration. If the microphone is accidentally
dropped, test it to see if damage has occurred before returning
it to service. Low output or a dull sound would indicate a dam-
aged ribbon.
2. Do not expose the microphone to direct blasts of air or
strong air currents! Use a windscreen or suitable blast filter
when close miking a vocalist or certain types of wind instru-
ments. P-popping does not necessarily damage the ribbon ele-
ment but may produce unacceptable preamplifier overload and
could cause damage to speaker systems.
3. Do not expose the microphone to liquids or caustic smoke.
4. Do not expose the microphone to strong alternating electro-
magnetic fields, i.e. the power transformers in amps, or a hum
may result.
5. Use a soft cloth to clean the microphone body. A small
amount of denatured alcohol can be used to remove fingerprints
and other stains.
