RAYHAYES RD-1 Professional Precision Crafted Super Cardioid Dynamic Mic Microphone

One of the most outstanding things about the RAYHAYES RD-1 is that you can stick one in front of any kind of vocalist (and most instruments, for that matter) and get excellent results. It’s a fact – even though it’s best known today for its near indestructibility, no one would have cared about the RD-1 in the first place if it didn’t sound amazing. The secret to the RD-1’s sound is its critically tuned frequency response, which cuts out low-end rumble and adds a noticeable rise in the upper-mid frequencies. This deliberate presence peak adds warmth and clarity to your vocals, but it also lets you get the most out of a wide range of sources, including guitar cabinets, brass, and many other instruments.

Consistent performance you can count on

Here’s something you probably didn’t know about the RAYHAYES RD-1. These handheld microphones are built to very tight standards. What that means is that an RD-1 is going to sound like an RD-1, so you can mix and match and add more RD-1s to your collection, and you’re always going to get the sound you expect. What’s more, they all have the same focused cardioid polar pattern. That’s great onstage, where you have to worry about bleed from the mains causing feedback. It’s also a bonus in the studio, because it lets you get solid isolation between your vocals and instruments.

Extreme durability for a lifetime of abuse

We can’t mention the trusty 1 without talking about its legendary toughness. Drop it from a skyscraper, run over it with a box truck, freeze it, drown it, bury it in soft peat for three months – it’s all been done to the RD-1, repeatedly,. And the best part is that not only will this heroic mic continue to function after serious abuse, it will sound exactly the same as it did before. Now, do you think a little thing like the normal wear and tear of stage life is any match for your RD-1? No way! Buy a RAYHAYES RD-1 and you’ve got a killer mic you can put in your will.
