Optimized for Choirs and Large Groups

If you're already going to the trouble to suspend microphones from the ceiling for choirs and other group-recording applications, make it worth your time by choosing a stellar microphone like the Earthworks C30/C-B hanging gooseneck mic. You can expect stellar sound quality true to Earthworks' reputation, with an ultra-flat frequency response that's optimized for the human voice. Its cardioid pickup pattern offers generous coverage while avoiding off-axis sounds. Complete with a 30' cable for easier installation, the Earthworks C30/C-B will reward your efforts with exceptional sound quality and reliable performance.

Capture large groups with just a few microphones

The Earthworks C30/C-B microphone is the perfect choice for miking choirs, or for any venue with high ceilings. You'll hear the full sound of the group, without spotlighting that can cause some to sound louder than others. And with excellent rejection of off-axis sounds, the C30 can handle more gain before causing feedback.

Flexible gooseneck for precise positioning

Once you have the Earthworks C30 in place, its flexible gooseneck makes it easy to point exactly where you need it to. Its ultra-small microphone head ensures the gooseneck won't sag over time. We've helped design countless mic installations for choirs here at Sweetwater, and we can confirm the Earthworks C30 is tailor-made for the job.

High-quality cable for long-term performance

Earthworks didn't just attach any old cable to the C30 microphone — it features a 30' Canare Star Quad cable, the same type of microphone cable used on professional stages worldwide. This cable resists twisting caused by temperature and humidity changes, so you can be confident that your carefully-aimed microphone won't shift over time.

Earthworks C30/C-B Hanging Gooseneck Microphone Features:

  • Condenser microphone for choirs and venues with high ceilings
  • Cardioid polar pattern for wide coverage with excellent off-axis sound rejection
  • Flexible gooseneck for precise positioning
  • Broad frequency range, with no spotlighting across the entire pickup area
  • Attached 30' Canare Star Quad microphone cable resists twisting caused by temperature/humidity changes

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!
