Bidirectional Ribbon Microphone

The GAP R2 MkII is a lollipop-style passive ribbon microphone.

The R2 looks like many other ribbons such as Nady, Cascade, T.Bone, and Alctron. The ribbon specifications (5mm x ~42mm, 2.5 micron) are similar as well.

The mic uses a 2.5micron thickness pure aluminum ribbon, measuring 42 x 5mm.

The mic has a wide horizontal pickup and reduced HF response when placed vertically.

The Golden Age Project R2 MKII is also known as: R2 MKII.
