HUM ARM-1L Active Ribbon Mic (2” ribbon)

HUM Audio Devices ARM-1L is Phantom powered active ribbon microphone equipped with 2″ long, 1.8u thick ribbon element. Output signal level is higher comparing to passive ribbon mics because of fully discrete active stage. High-end class electronic components and manufacturing techniques allowed us to achieve very low noise floor and detailed rich sound. It’s also equipped with switchable low cut filter (50/100 Hz) The ARM-1 mics RM-1L and ARM-1S are active mono ribbon microphones, that inherit build and sound quality from our flagship stereo RS-2 Ribbon Recording System. Custom tailored 1.8 micron aluminum foil ribbon motors are paired together with audiophile quality handcrafted audio circuit and high precision CNC-machined mechanics. There are two mechanically similar models with distinct sound that will let you choose appropriate mic for your application: ARM-1L (with blue suspension orings) has the same 2 inch ribbon motor like our flagship RS-2 microphone and little more „character” in sound, while ARM-1S (with white suspension orings) is equipped with 1 inch ribbon motor and has more clean and neutral sound. You will find that both ARM-1 models excel on many sound sources, covering a wide range of studio recording applications, including string section recordings, piano, guitars, woodwinds, ambience, drum overheads and vocals. They will give you precious classic, huge, larger than life sound with a lot of details typically -2- found in good condenser mics, but at the same time you have that classic lovely ribbon sound flavour, so much beloved by musicians and sound engineers . Tracks recorded with ARM-1 mics also blend very well with other elements in the mix. That’s a distinctive feature of all the best mics on the market.
