Earthworks model SR30 Multi-use Directional Condenser Cardioid Microphone

Earthworks cardioid microphones have patented near-perfect cardioid 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.

Key Features

• Extended frequency response to 30kHz
• Multi-purpose cardioid 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
