The SM57 and the R-121 couldn't be more different. One can't handle a puff of air and the other is able to fall off the Empire State Building unscathed. Together in a studio though, peanut-butter and jelly!

Hiring Mitch was one of the best decisions Sweetwater has made.

Absolutely amazing technology! What a creation. Great video too, thanks 🤘

[@mehmetic]

Great video! Love seeing the inner workings and build backstories.
Wish this was in my price range!

Hi Mitch. Haven't seen you since I was with y'all in LA (EQ) before Katrina. Man you are a natural on camera! They chose wisely @ Sweetwater (-:

Mitch is the best.
Thanks for all the valuable info;

[@stevendierkes6028]

Adding that to my wish list!

Like you Mitch, I use my 121's (pair) all the time!

[@petermgruhn]

Aw, it's a shame Dad couldn't see this. I remember him having all sorts of corrugating experiments.

I'm a textbook case of the 121 selling me on ribbons about 7 years ago haha

[@hinspect]

Ribbon Mics remind me of old Radio Stations

[@cgungm]

Thank you so much for this lesson. I think I'm going to save up for this mic (to buy from Sweetwater, of course)!

[@papahuge]

What is the lapel mic you guys using in this video?

[@tonycannatamusic]

122’s are better no need to crank the preamps and lower noise floor
