Royer Microphones

Royer Labs has always strived to bring the distinct natural sound qualities of ribbon microphones to the world. With constant innovation and reinvention, Royer builds better microphones for better music. By holding themselves to the highest possible standards of craftsmanship, Royer's microphones are full of warmth and character that helps them find their place in any working environment.

Royer Labs was formed in 1998 by David Royer, a truly elite designer whose lifelong love of music has given him a unique perspective when it comes to microphones. By the late 1990's, ribbon microphones had largely been forgotten, but Royer changed all that by building mics that perfectly complemented new, digital recording, thanks in part to their warm, analog feel and smooth sound. Today Royer mics are considered a must have in studios all around the world, bringing music and sound to life like never before.

If you're not sure which Royer mic is right for you, you may as well start off by looking at our best sellers, such as the R-101 Ribbon Mic.
