Ribbon Microphone Wizard Wes Dooley introduces the world to the new A840 Active Ribbon Microphone at the New York City AES (Audio Engineering Society) Exhibits October, 2009. Designed to be a cross between a more affordable A440 Active Big Ribbon Mic (AEA's other active ribbon, also the quietest and most detailed ribbon microphone ever produced, but with a $5k price tag), and the R84 affordable ribbon (that sounds incredibly warm and smooth but requires tremendous preamp gain, this new A840 is destined to be a tremendous success... it's street price is designed to be well under 2-grand. Loads of detail, dynamic range (high SPL of 141 dB and low self noise of 17.5 dB), and the famous AEA ribbon sound will make this extremely versatile and user friendly even on acoustic instruments where it's tougher to make traditional ribbons operate. Hugely wide frequency response add to the fact that this microphone is going to be versatile accross the studio and orchestra.
