In studios and on live stages around the world, the R-121 is the sound of electric guitars... and so much more!

The R-121 is Royer's flagship microphone – the iconic, radically engineered ribbon mic that put modern ribbons on the map in the 1990s has changed the meaning of “natural sound” for engineers and musicians around the world. The undisputed #1 first-call ribbon microphone for electric guitars, R-121s are equally well suited for trumpets and all brass instruments, drum rooms, percussion, piano, and much more.

The R-121 delivers a warm, extremely natural sound pickup in a compact, light-weight, high-output package that's easy to position, and it handles massive SPLs famously (160dB #1kHz). R-121s are built to use on guitar ramps from small combos to wide open high-wattage heads, trumpets from close-up muted to blow-your-hardest blaring, drums, and other high SPL applications. But its nuanced, natural sound pickup is also beautiful on quiet instruments like fingerpicked acoustic guitars, harp, flute, light percussion and others. The R-121 is warm, smooth and musical, giving phenomenal results on a wide variety of instruments.
