Abstract:
The present invention offers a design, which enables selective use of portions of a microphone's diaphragm. The gold splattered surface of the diaphragm is divided into segments with enough distance between them so that they are not electrically connected to each other. A separate wire is connected to each segment. A user can select one of the segments or a combination of segments in order to change the frequency response and other sonic characteristics of the microphone to suite the sound source.

Claim (Index 8):
8 - Ribbon of a ribbon microphone made of conductive and non-conductive layers, where the conductive layer is divided into a main segment covering the majority of the ribbon surface, and one or more substantially narrower segments acting as connection wires.
