MXL Microphones R144 Ribbon microphone

The R144’s passive design comprises the ribbon capsule and an output transformer. The ribbon itself is made of aluminium, and is 47mm in length and only 1.8 microns in thickness. The frequency‑response plot bears more than a passing resemblance to the profile of the Malvern Hills as seen from the M5 motorway, but the useful frequency range extends from 20Hz to 17kHz, with broad peaks at around 300Hz and 6kHz. Few people buy ribbon mics for their sonic accuracy, but rather because of their subjective tonality — and in particular their warmth and ability to smooth out high‑end detail in sound sources that might normally seem strident when miked with capacitor microphones.
