DrumKit™ for live performance
The DK25/L is for live performance and has three SR25s: two for overheads and one for kick drum, a KickPad™ and a windscreen. The patented cardioid pattern on the SR25 provides a more uniform off-axis response and has less susceptibility to acoustic feedback. The DK25/L is also ideal for use with multi-miked drums (four or more mics) in either live or studio applications. In such cases it is recommended that two SR25s are used for overheads.
Earthworks High Definition Microphones™ will provide a substantially better drum sound than conventional microphones. The DrumKit™ Series three-microphone systems provide a more cohesive and unified drum sound. You’ll hear more attack, more subtle detail and a more pristine quality in the sound than with any other microphones. The Earthworks drum microphones capture every nuance of sound from each piece of the drum set with such an exceptional clarity and cohesiveness, which make it sound like a live set of drums, not a bunch of pieces.
- Improved impulse response for faster and more accurate transients
- Shorter diaphragm settling time to prevent quieter attacks from being blurred by earlier loud attacks
- Extended frequency response to 30 kHz to capture a crisper and more realistic image
- Near perfect polar patterns that remain even across all frequencies and at any position within the pattern
- More cohesive and unified drum sound
- Hear more attack and subtle detail
- Increased detail and dynamic range
- Versatile, multi-use mics
- Mics are protected in a high impact case
- Fast setup and teardown
- 3 SR25s: two for overheads and one for kick drum
- 1 KickPad™
- 1 windscreen
- Comes housed in a rugged carrying case
- Ideal three-mic choice for live performance or recording in less than ideal acoustic environments
- The patented cardioid pattern on the SR25 provides a more uniform off-axis response and has less susceptibility to acoustic feedback

High Definition SnareMic™ Combo Kit
The Drum Periscope™ High Definition Microphones™ are designed for close miking toms and snare drums, and will take a direct hit from a drumstick. A right angle mic head is mounted to the gooseneck for easy positioning. The Drum Periscope™ is mounted parallel to the drum shell with the RM1 RimMount™.
- Improved impulse response for faster and more accurate transients
- Shorter diaphragm settling time to prevent quieter attacks from being blurred by earlier loud attacks
- Extended frequency response to 30 kHz to capture a crisper and more realistic image
- Near perfect polar patterns that remain even across all frequencies and at any position within the pattern
- Will take a direct hit from a drumstick
- A right angle mic head is mounted to the gooseneck for easy positioning
- Stiff mini-gooseneck that will not move when the drums are hit hard
- The microphone capsule housing is designed to protect the microphone capsule and withstand a direct hit from a drumstick
- The electronics are housed in a cylindrical tube attached to the other end of the mini-gooseneck and provide a high level, low impedance output that will prevent RFI
- Cardioid polar pattern
- Frequency response of 30Hz to 30kHz
- Very fast impulse response making it ideal for reproducing the rich low frequencies and full detail of the attack
- 145dB SPL capability ensures the mic will not overload from the loudest of drum attacks
- Short diaphragm settling time allows you to hear a full-bodied sound with subtle details that you cannot hear using conventional microphones
- Heavy construction enables it to withstand the punishment of the road
- 1 DP25/C SnareMic
- 1 RM1 RimMount
- 1 LP1530 LevelPad
- 1 foam windscree
- Housed in a rugged plastic box with custom foam insert
