I’m interested in potentially getting a ribbon microphone for mostly just hobby recording in my home. I’ve been having a terrible time finding examples and information on recording classical vocals on a ribbon microphone, however, the one example I did find sounded quite beautiful. The singer was recording using an AEA R84, however, it’s a bit out of my price range.

OK, Ive been looking at the Royer R-121 ,

Just before I purchase it, tell me something else that could be better
and why, because this is probably a one shot at a mic for vocals .
