Royer R-10 Ribbon Microphone - Matched Pair
Royer R-10 Ribbon Microphone - Matched Pair Reviews
At Sweetwater, when we want the sweet, silky sound of a ribbon mic, we'll likely reach for a Royer. We've come to rely on the company for high-fidelity ribbon mics that stand up to daily deployment in a variety of critical recording studio and live sound applications, and they've nailed it again with the R-10. The Royer R-10 delivers a beautifully balanced sound field with a flat frequency response and an impressive maximum SPL of 160dB at 1kHz, so you can close-mic loud sources without fear of overload. The R-10 is the choice for electric and acoustic guitars, brass, strings, drums, cymbals, piano, vocals, and more. Its figure-8 polar pattern also captures ambience beautifully, which makes it excellent for room miking and drum overheads. The Royer R-10 is a value-packed, state-of-the-art ribbon microphone that deserves a place in your mic locker.
Great mic’s
If your in the market for a pair of ribbon mics at a great price, look no further, these mics sound great on anything I put them on, and they are built to last,also the size and form factor make them easy to use.
So far so good
I record at home, mostly drums. I bought these to use in various functions, but so far, they're really upped my kick sound (outer kick mic) as well as hi-hat. For hi-hat, I'm using it in combination with Shure SM81. The Shure's give me the nice transients, these add some nice body.
Great Value
I wanted to add some ribbons to my collection, and I knew I wanted something relatively affordable that wasn't as dark as Fatheads. The R-10s have delivered. While I haven't had a chance to use them on everything I'd like to yet, I've been very pleased with the sounds I've gotten using one of these on acoustic guitar, saxophone, and a pair on grand piano. They come in a super solid carrying case with drawstring mic covers. Nice touch! My sales engineer Ryan was super helpful when I was trying to figure out the financing. Definitely worth the dough if you want a serious ribbon for a decent price.
Amazing
Love these mics. I bought one to try it out and liked it so much I ordered a stereo pair as well. Super awesome on guitar cabs paired with a 57.
I Love my R-10s
Beautiful match with the Db Booster for vocals and acoustic guitar as well as high SPL amps !!

Royer R10 matched pair
Game changer for recording acoustic guitars in my home studio and equally amazing on my supro statesman and laney lionheart guitar amps recorded in stereo. Thanks again Josh and the sweetwater team for another flawless transaction and fast delivery,
