Ocean Way RM1-B

With dozens of Ocean Way RM1 mics now in use for symphonic recording and vocals, the Ocean Way Audio RM1-B is a reimagined, no-compromise bi-directional ribbon mic with unprecedented low noise and true high-fidelity tone. A variety of refinements make it easier to use and sonically prettier, especially in the upper octave.

• Greatest magnetic force ever available in a ribbon mic
• High intensity NeO-powered magnet super-circuit delivers 6 dB more level
• Super-audiophile 1st stage preamp with all discrete circuit
• Output level comparable to quietest condenser mics
• Completely natural unaffected sound with full bandwidth in both directions
• Ultra-low noise phantom-powered pre-amplification with out level of 36 dB, 20 Hz - 20 kHz
• Redesigned outer perimeter "clad" in archival stainless steel
• New knurled cylinder knobs provide superior hand-torque
• Laser-etched jet-black lettering against stainless steel
• Packaged in waterproof, airtight "Pelican" case for safe transport and storage

Specification:

• Output: 36bB, 20-20,000Hz
• Materials and Finishes used in the RM1:

• Warranty: 5 years on all parts and manufacturing. Ribbon warranty 90 days from purchase. RM1 is fully repairable and rebuildable.
• Dimensions: 6”H x 3”W x 2”d.
• Weight 7.5LB (3.4kg)
• Integral cable preamplifier: LR Baggs Preamp requires standard 48v phantom power via XLR connector, draws about 8ma (4ma per side).
• Integral cable assembly: 24’ (0.6m) Gotham GAC3 cable, integral compression strain relief and gold-plated Neurtrik cable-mount XLRM.
• Accessories: ISO1 subsonic-tuned isolation boom-mount (optional), yoke-mount (standard). All with standard 5/8’-27 female mic-stand thread. A Pelican 1300 or an SKB 3i-0907-6b-l 6 case hold and protects the mic for transport.
• Use Note: 12”-18” a good working distance for normal vocal (closer give proximity bass-boost). Excellent for just about any instrument, except near-field kick drum and near-field bass guitar speaker pickup (LF will harm the ribbon).
• Origin: Proudly hand-made in the United States of America.
