HI!
Yes,yes be careful with Phantom Power on ribbon mics! You can damge the ribbon!
I have the R1 active ribbon mic and for 1week ago i recorded a heavy guitar with them.
For my R1 you don't need a extremly closeness to th speaker, so the best for this track was 50inch far away from the speaker.
If you have a passive ribbon (normally) you can or must be closer, but take attention! Don't blow in the mic!!
Take always,always a pop filter for vocals!
Hope that helps
Robert
