Fostex described the M55RP as a “printed ribbon” microphone, although it is technically a passive flat-coil\/planar dynamic design. Its RP or Regular Phase element uses an aluminum voice coil etched directly onto a thin polyester diaphragm, combining the smoothness and transient response associated with ribbon and condenser microphones with the durability of a conventional dynamic mic. \u003cspan data-state=\"closed\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"866\" data-start=\"568\"\u003eDesigned primarily for professional vocals and sound reinforcement, the M55RP features a controlled cardioid pickup pattern, internal shock mounting and very low handling noise.
