The R-122 MKll Live's output is on par with phantom powered condenser mics, allowing for long cable runs and the occasional sub-par mic preamps, and its switchable -15 dB pad and bass-cut filter deliver unprecedented flexibility on electric guitars, drum overheads, trumpets and other live instruments. Most importantly, it produces the warm, realistic sounds that only ribbon mics can deliver.

The microphone utilizes a special Royer-designed toroidal transformer that delivers a faster transient response then traditional ribbons. This produces a tighter, more focused low end and a sense of more open highs than with traditional ribbons, making it a first call ribbon mic for drum overheads and percussion. The R-122 MKll Live can be used on extremely long cable runs with minimal RF interference and signal loss, and the ribbon element cannot be damaged by phantom power, miswired cables or electrical glitches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe R-122 MKll Live is visually differentiated by its red logo. The ribbon element thickness is increased from 2.5-microns to 4-microns, giving the microphone greater durability and a slightly reduced high end response. Highs are often rolled off in live performances, but due to the R-122 MKll Live's smooth high frequency response, it needs less eq'ing than is usually required with condenser and dynamic microphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe R-122 MKll Live is backed with Royer's lifetime warranty to the original owner, and the first re-ribbon is free.

Side rejection in the null points is strong – simply position the mics \"ears\" to face the offending instrument(s) and bleed will be virtually eliminated. The top and bottom of the microphone are also null points.

If you don't work in those disciplines, here is a brief synopsis of the Decca Tree [or \"Tri-Mono\"] recording technique.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEngineers who recorded classical music for Decca Records pioneered this microphone placement technique in the early 1950s when they wanted a strong sense of stereo image and balanced coverage of an orchestra, as the conductor might have heard while he led the orchestra.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe technique features three omni-directional microphones placed in a reverse \"T\" configuration, roughly above the head of the conductor. The \"left\" and \"right\" are positioned behind the conductor while the \"center\" microphone hangs in front of the conductor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to orchestral recording applications, the Decca Tree configuration can be an invaluable component to more contemporary recordings for drum applications and to gain an overall \"band in a room\" kind of atmosphere to your recording process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe most common Decca Tree setup employs 3x 1-meter bars from which the microphones hang in a triangle configuration; though larger and smaller bar sets can be used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe microphone most commonly employed for this technique is the Neumann M-50, though other microphones like the Neumann KM-53's and Schoeps M-221b microphones have been successfully employed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the problems often associated with the application of the Decca Tree technique is a loss of high frequency content due to the physics of how sound travels. The greater the distance a sound has to travel, the more high frequency information is lost due to the resistance of the air through which the sound must travel. Another problem that can be associated with this technique can be the capture of greater reverberant information than is often desired (due to the omni-directional capsules employed).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe capsule assembly of the Neumann M-50 featured a 40mm acrylic sphere which was actually a \"diffuse field sphere\" built into the M-50's capsule assembly. In order to obtain a best of both worlds scenario, TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik has created diffuse field spheres as an accessory for the ELA M 260 Tri-Mono Recording Set.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe addition of a diffuse field sphere is the most organic way to combat both effects; reducing the loss of high frequencies as well as minimizing the reverberant information. TELEFUNKEN Elektroakustik has made two different sized diffuse field-recording spheres available for the ELA M 260 series of microphones: 50mm and 30mm. The sphere is an accessory that attaches to the capsule end of the microphone, which effectively makes the microphone's diaphragm part of the sphere as the sphere changes the shape of the transduction capsule. The result is a gradual and smooth rise in upper midrange and high frequency information captured by the microphone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe sphere increases the directionality of an omni-directional capsule by altering the acoustic surface area of the capsule to nearly infinite. Where an omni-directional microphone has (for all intents and purposes) 360° pickup capability, with the addition of a sphere, the frequency response of the microphone is increased in the 2 - 10kHz region of the audio by as much as 2.5 db in the front of the microphone (50mm sphere) while being simultaneously diminished by about 2.5db from 5kHz up from the rear of the microphone. The 35mm attachment gives a less pronounced effect, which may be preferable for smaller venues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis high frequency increase in the front of the microphone coupled with the decrease of upper frequency information from the rear of the microphone increases the perceived directionality of the microphone, while information coming from 90° and 270° remains unaffected.
