Optimum Sonic Accuracy and Superior Drum Sound! Do you know what the latest thing in drum recording is? It's making the kit sound like a cohesive instrument recorded in a real space, not just a bunch of drums recorded in a dead space with each drum processed with different effects. That sound is why real drums have been replaced in recordings with electronic drums - and why rock drums have never been the same since the days of The Who and Led Zepplin - when a drum kit was recorded with three mics instead of seven. If you want to give your recordings the sound of live, cohesive drums with the feeling of being there, then the Earthworks DrumKit System is for you. Earthworks DrumKit System at a Glance:
Exceptional Clarity and Cohesiveness The typical practice of miking drums is to use a separate mic for most elements of the drum set, along with two overhead mics. This normally involves the use of five to seven microphones or more. While developing a new 25kHz Series of microphones for percussion, Earthworks went into the studio to try them out. They only used two mics for overheads and one for kick drum. Then they made a comparative recording of the same drum set using seven other mics that are some of the industry favorites for miking drums. In comparing these two recordings, the difference in detail and sound quality of the three Earthworks mics vs. the seven industry favorites was staggering. The Earthworks microphones captured every nuance of sound from each piece of the drum set with such an exceptional clarity and cohesiveness, that it sounded like a live set of drums, not a bunch of pieces. This discovery led to the development of the innovative DrumKit System, providing a "dramatic improvement" in the sound quality of miked drums. When we heard the DrumKit System, it absolutely blew us away! Three DrumKit Microphones The Earthworks DrumKit System is for recording and has two TC25 omnis for overheads, an SR25 cardioid for kick drum, a KickPad and a windscreen. The Earthworks DrumKit System comes in an attractive solid wood carrying case. The patented cardioid pattern on the SR25 provides a more uniform off-axis response and less susceptibility to acoustic feedback. The KickPad A good kick drum microphone needs to be designed and optimized for that specific purpose. This means the microphone is great for kick drum and nothing else. Therefore we designed the kick drum optimization in an external XLR package - the KickPad. Just plug the KickPad into the mic line going to the SR25kick drum mic for magnificent results. With the KickPad removed, you can use the same SR25 for most anything. Versatile Mics All three high quality Earthworks microphones in the DrumKit System will provide stunning results on a wide variety of instruments and vocals. As an added bonus, the KickPad will improve the sound of other popular microphones used for kick drum. The Earthworks DrumKit System is truly astonishing - you must hear it for yourself.
