Earthworks SR30 30kHz Multi-Use Cardioid Condenser Microphone

About: Earthworks SR30 30kHz Multi-Use Cardioid Condenser Microphone

Earthworks directional microphones have patented near-perfect polar patterns. The sound across the entire front hemisphere is remarkably uniform and is flatter at 90 degrees than most microphones are on-axis. The SR Series have an incredible transparent sound quality, offering near-perfect polar response and high rejection of sounds at the rear of the microphone, resulting in less leakage and more gain before feedback.

The Earthworks SR30 is a multi-purpose cardioid condenser microphone designed for instrument miking in live performance and studio recording environments.

• Extended frequency response to 30kHz
• Multi-purpose directional microphone
• More gain before feedback than other microphones
• Less leakage
• Textbook perfect cardioid polar pattern with natural on- and off-axis performance
• Provides excellent results for both live performance and recording applications
• Extreme accuracy in the time domain for faithful reproduction and no smearing or distortion
• Transparent sound quality
• Shorter diaphragm settling time to prevent quieter attacks from being blurred by earlier louder attacks

The Detail You Deserve

With a lighting fast transient response, the SR30 handles sharp attacks with ease, while still capturing all of the subtle nuances.

Nothing Short of Superior

Its near-perfect cardioid polar pattern is consistent across all frequencies, with over 30dB of off-axis rejection.
