    Ocean Way Audio (OWA) Unveils RM1-B Ribbon Microphone

     

    141st AES Convention, Los Angeles, CA, September 29, 2016 — Ocean Way Audio (OWA) (booth 106), a leading manufacturer of high-resolution reference monitors for the professional audio and audiophile market sectors, is unveiling the RM1-B Ribbon Microphone. Like its acclaimed predecessor the RM1, the RM1-B was designed for Ocean Way Audio by noted microphone designer Cliff Henricksen. With dozens of RM1 mics in the field, high-level audio engineers have adopted the RM1 and are using it for symphonic recordings and vocals.

     

    Utilizing the same unique ribbon design as the RM1 – offering matched, ultra-low-noise phantom-powered pre-amplification and an output level of 36db, 20Hz to 20 kHz – the RM1-B has a redesigned outer perimeter “clad” in archival stainless steel. The new knurled cylinder knobs provide superior hand-torque; the RM1-B’s design allows for an even more open and detailed response.

     

    Laser-etched graphics with jet-black lettering against the stainless steel deliver a clean, very attractive appearance. The mic comes packaged in a waterproof, airtight “Pelican” case for safe transportation and storage.

     

    Cliff comments, “The RM1 is a no-compromise bidirectional ribbon microphone that has all the ‘ribbon mic qualities’ I admired but with unprecedented low noise and true high-fidelity tone.  This was done as a complete mechanical, acoustical, magnetic and electronic system design.  The RM1-B has a variety of refinements, making it easier to use as well as sonically prettier, especially in the upper octave.”
