If the outputs of the “mid” and “side” microphones are recorded
on separate tracks, the electrical connections shown in Figure 3
can be made at the mixer outputs and the adjustment of the stereo
separation can be done during mixdown, rather than during the
actual recording.

Recording on the Back Side of the R-122V
The R-122V incorporates an “offset ribbon” design that enables
it to handle high sound pressure levels such as those produced
by loud guitar amplifiers and other instruments. An interesting
phenomenon as a result of this offset ribbon construction is that
the R-122V records slightly brighter on its back side than on its
front (logo) side, when the microphone is three feet or closer to
the sound source. This can be extremely useful when a brighter
response is desirable, such as when recording acoustic instruments
or vocalists.
When recording vocals on either side of an R-122V, a quality
pop filter (such as the Royer PS-101 metal pop screen) is essential
to protect the ribbon element from windblasts. As with any figure-
8 microphone, the front side of the R-122V is in-phase and the
back side is out-of-phase. We suggest that you reverse the
