Earthworks DK50/R

As Randy Lane, FOH Engineer for American Idol and Dream Theater put it: “The first time I heard Earthworks High Definition Microphones™ on drums was a revelation. The details of the drum were startlingly apparent. The mics translated every detail of the sound of the stick hitting the cymbal and the varying timbres of the cymbal as it was struck in different areas. The Earthworks Drum Periscope mics on toms and snare were astounding. The full detail and decay of the drum was naturally reproduced. This opened up a whole new musical ensemble for the drummer as he could now deliver delicate details and subtle notes that were translated to the audience as well.”

Earthworks High Definition Microphones™ have revolutionized miking drums. You can hear this for yourself on our Drum Demo CD. Earthworks High Definition Microphones will allow you to hear far more detail in the attack and subtle sounds you cannot hear with conventional microphones. You can also lower overhead microphones without the danger of hearing cymbals splashing and distorting. Drummers with major artists such as Steely Dan, Dream Theater and Joe Satriani use Earthworks High Definition Microphones™ for recording and live performances.

You can purchase Earthworks High Definition Microphones™ in matched pairs for drum overheads, or our new Drum Periscope™ tom and snare mics individually as well. However, there are price savings in the purchase of our microphone kits.

DK50/R

"It all started when we tried a pair of QTC50s as drum overheads in the studio. Everyone in the room was absolutely astonished with the impeccable detail in the drum sound. It was so remarkable we created the Earthworks DK50/R Premium DrumKit System", say engineers from Earthworks.  This new DrumKit System features a matched pair of QTC50s for overheads (with response from 3Hz to 50kHz) an SR30 for kick drum and a KickPad'. Also included is a stainless steel windscreen so you can use the SR30 as an impressive vocal microphone. three foam windscreens (one for each microphone) and three LevelPad STV (switchable to —15dB or —30dB of attenuation). The DK50/R Premium DrumKitlm System comes housed in a genuine Zero/Halliburton carrying case. Try the DK50/R and you will be surely satisfied!
