Prodipe R.S.L Manuel Utilisateur page 5

Dear Customer,
We would like to thank you for the confidence you have placed in us by purchasing a Prodipe product.
The R.S.L is a stereo ribbon microphone. Its ribbon thickness is only 2.2 microns. The ribbon transducer is
comprised of two powerful neodymium magnets and high pure iron alloy.
The R.S.L is actually comprised of two separate matched ribbon microphones. They are mounted in close
proximity on a vertical axis, places one above the other and each aimed 45 degrees from the center. When
held vertically, connector down, the upper microphone is the left channel and the lower microphone is the
right channel.
The R.S.L extension 5-pin cable come with an adapter which splits into left and right 3-pin XLR connectors,
each output the left channel signal and the right channel signal.
Safety precautions:
• Remember to disable the phantom power (48 V) from those preamps that have it because
this power may destroy the ribbon when certain conditions are present.
• Ribbon mics can withstand high acoustic levels without being affected; however, because of
the thinness of the ribbon (a few millionths of a millimetre) they cannot tolerate being blown
on directly. Therefore, if you want to prevent permanent damage to the ribbon, you should
avoid having the mic in draughty conditions or making sudden movements with it.
• We recommend that you store the mic in an upright position because if you store it
horizontally the ribbon is inclined to become deformed under its own weight and slacken,
thereby lowering the sound quality.
