Function

Box for the Reslo microphone.

Technical

This is an example of a ribbon microphone, In a ribbon microphone an electrically conductive ribbon[e.g. a metal foil] is suspended in the magnetic field permanent magnet. As the ribbon vibrates in response to sound waves, voltage in the circuit varies in proportion to the velocity of the ribbon. Ribbon microphones have a high sensitivity and smooth frequency response over a broad range of frequencies. They also have a bidirectional, or figure -8 pickup patter, being sensitive to sounds from side, top and bottom. These features make ribbon microphones well suited for use in recording, broadcast and film studios.
