An Alternative to the RCA 77-DX Ribbon Microphone?

[@AaronRash]

Quick question. What micron thickness should a 77 be re-ribboned with? I’ve read 2.5 micron, but also have read .7 micron. I recently got a 77 and it needs a new ribbon!

Hey! These would be a 1.8 micron thick ribbon!

@@colepicksvintage Thanks Cole! I haven’t been able to find any info or spec sheets anywhere

[@colepicksvintage]

I have some original 77 specs sheets I can send over if you send me an email!

Those ribbon mics sound so good on an acoustic guitar.

😞 I was SO CLOSE on that 98!! PayPal authorized it... checkout was ONE CLICK away... but I must have blinked.

This kick sounds so good . Which mic do you use for this sound?

[@danielpenaofficial4186]

I wanna hear the mics on voice l

[@herschoolcolors]

Great stuff. What pres and converters do you use for these demos?

[@colepicksvintage]

For the drums mostly a Heritage 1073, and for guitars an AEA RPQ2. But only for gain and never any EQ on these videos!
