Also from the specifications, the frequency response is quoted as 30Hz to 15kHz with a ±3dB tolerance. The R-10 is excellent on brass and can handle close-miked trumpets, trombones, and other brass instruments. Vocals record warm and naturally on an R-10, and the EQ-friendliness of the R-10 allows for dialing in completely different sounds with liberal use of EQ. The R-10’s internally shockmounted ribbon transducer isolates the ribbon element from shocks and vibrations, increasing the ribbon element’s durability. << /Length 5 0 R /Filter /FlateDecode >> 630 If you hear something different in a comparison, I'd look to microphone placement. The Royer R-121 v.s R-10 We had to put these microphones to the test and see how the R-10 matches up to the R-121, and I can say I was truly surprised with how the R-10 held up. For more information on the R-series transducer design, see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-KaSiYYcDU. If you want more bite in the highs but don’t want to multi-mic (particularly on live stages where blending microphones can create phase-related problems), the R-10 takes EQ beautifully and we suggest experimenting with your favorite EQ unit or plugin. Royer's Patented Offset Ribbon Technology.
