The lack of available clear, free space is a non-issue. Compander-free audio with wide dynamic range and extended frequency response (for that “just like a wired mic” performance) is the new standard. Sound good? Welcome to the world of XD-V digital wireless microphones from Line 6. Historically, wireless systems have relied on a tenuous process for avoiding interference: scan hundreds or thousands of “frequencies” until you find a clear one, and cross your fingers. But as avoiding interference becomes more difficult, technology must keep up. Line 6 digital wireless systems were designed from the ground up to tackle interference in the most advanced ways. Proprietary DCL™ technology locks out interference. Hum, buzz and “breaker-breaker” cannot penetrate our RF system and will never become audible. Unique PDP™ technology enables operation in the license-free 2.4GHz band, even in the midst of heavy Wi-Fi or Bluetooth activity. Plus, the audio data is transmitted over four frequencies so you can be confident you’ll get pristine audio no matter what the environment. Setup couldn’t be simpler. Since Line 6 digital wireless systems can operate in a band full of interference, there is no need to scan for open frequencies. You always have the right “block” no matter where you are in the world. Simply power up, select a channel, and go. There are no adjustments to make… ever! XD-V70, the microphone pictured to the right, is like seven mics in one. It features detailed Line 6 models of the world’s top live sound mics available at the push of a button.

Forget Feedback When This Mic Is in Hand We’re positive there’s no coincidence that RØDE and “road” rhyme. Why? RØDE builds their mics ridiculously tough, ready to handle even the most punishing of tour schedules. And that’s why we love the M1 so much. Yes, it’s specially designed to pick up vocals, and it sounds amazing. But with this one, you know it’s a rock-solid investment — it even includes a lifetime warranty. Want a sonic upgrade? The M2 is a great-sounding condenser mic with even better isolation from other onstage sound sources. You’ll love its fast response — it’ll capture everything you throw at it, even when you’re rocking from a whisper to a scream, at rapid fire. Plus, you’ll be free to take your vocal power anywhere onstage. This mic has impressively high feedback rejection. With it, you interact with your bandmates, crowd surf... whatever it is you do. And the whole time, you’ll know your voice is coming through loud and clear — and without mud from other instruments. We’ll sum it up this way: the Opus 89 rocks.

When the R-121 burst onto the scene, it was an instant hit, finding its way in front of guitar amps and over drum kits the world over. Why? Quite simply, the sound of a Royer is exactly what you hear in the room. There’s no hype; there’s just natural sound. Like most ribbons, the R-121 sports a figure-8 pickup pattern. This mic also delivers a slightly brighter pickup on the back side of the mic, which is perfect for acoustic instruments and vocals. For classic ribbon sound with a bit more gain (14dB to be exact), check out the phantom-powered R-122. These mics are a great addition to anyone’s mic locker. Royer ribbon mics have radically changed the pro audio world. Not only did they introduce a whole generation of budding engineers to the magic of ribbon mics, but they also reminded seasoned mic fans why ribbons were cool. Before long, you were seeing Royers in front of guitar amps and over drum kits in the world’s biggest studios and major venues. Specs: R-121/R-122 fig-8 • 30Hz–15kHz • Max SPL: 135dB ONLY $46/mo.

Even while their R-121 and R-122 were becoming studio standards, Royer reinvented the ribbon all over again — this time adding a tube into the mix — to come up with the TEC Award-winning R-122V. Performance-wise, the R-122V falls in line with the super-popular R-121 and R-122. The tube adds 15dB more gain than the standard R-121, but you still get Royer’s super-smooth sound. The increased output lets you be more flexible with which preamp you choose, freeing you from the short list of high-gain preamps. And thanks to the R-122Vs high-output power supply, long cable runs are no problem at all! The R-122V is a favorite of engineers who record classical music. When it comes to orchestral instruments, the R-122V is perfect for strings, woodwinds, brass, percussion, and overall orchestra miking. You can also stomp on it for rock, and it shines; in fact, it’ll take a wide-open Marshall without flinching, and it’ll give you guitar and drum tracks you won’t believe. Priced to be more attainable than the famous R-121, the R-101 is a sleek black beauty of a mic. The sound is warm and natural — just as you’d expect from a Royer — and it’s built like a tank, so even the loudest guitar amps won’t make a dent! And the R-101 rocks over drum kits, on horns, and on virtually anything else you can throw at it. But you don’t just get a mic at this price. Royer also includes a case, a shockmount, and a mic sock. If you’ve been itching for a ribbon but couldn’t swing the cost, this is the mic for you! Also available in a matched pair. Specs: fig-8 • 30Hz–15kHz • Max SPL: 135dB The inclusion of a tube doesn’t alter the lightning-fast transient response that has made the previous “R” series ribbons so popular.

The SF-12 stereo ribbon microphone combines premium-quality audio performance with outstanding stereo separation and imaging. It actually has two matched ribbons mounted together in the same body. Each ribbon is rotated 45 degrees from center. Because ribbons don’t pick up from their sides at all, each ribbon picks up exactly what the other doesn’t. That’s why the SF-12 provides beautifully wide stereo images without suffering from the phase issues of other stereo pairs. The SF-24 is a phantom-powered stereo ribbon mic with an output of -38dB — a full 14dB more sensitive than the nonpowered SF-12. Royer has been at the forefront of the ribbon mic’s return to popularity, and even a cursory listen to either of these great-sounding stereo mics will tell you why! So how would you use a stereo ribbon? Popular uses include on piano, as drum overheads, on strings, and on small ensembles, as well as anywhere else premium audio pickup and natural sound are necessary.

Perfect for project studios (but boasting sound on-par with mics costing far more), the sE Electronics sE2200a is a stunning mic for vocal applications — and it pretty much rocks at anything else! The cardioid pickup pattern minimizes influence from the room, and the 10dB pad lets you throw it at more raucous sources, including guitar amps and drum kits. The sE2200a imparts an up-front sound that lets voices and instruments cut through the mix. When you need big-studio sound on a shoestring budget, the sE2200a fits the bill!

This innovative mic combines cardioid and figure-8 capsules in one housing. Also onboard the AT4050ST is an M-S encoder circuitry that gives you pristine stereo in both narrow (90º) and wide (127º) formats. The close cousin to the AT4050ST is the versatile AT4050 multi-pattern condenser. This microphone is indispensable to many studios with limited mic lockers because it can switch among cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8 patterns. Also available are the cardioid AT4033/CL and AT4040 condensers.

This mic is absolutely smooth on vocals, treating them with that natural presence boost. It rounds transients slightly, adding a silky overtone to most voices, which is perfect for when you want the singer to stand out in the mix. Based on the cardioid-only AT4047/SV, a big hit with broadcast professionals and voice-over artists, Audio-Technica designed the AT4047MP to be even more versatile by giving it a switchable polar pattern (cardioid, figure-8, and omnidirectional).
