Earthworks Condenser Microphones

A lot of research goes into making a good condenser microphone. That's especially true for Earthworks, whose founder, David E. Blackmer, went the extra mile to discover as much about the human ear as he could. What he found was that our hearing is quite a bit finer than conventional wisdom led us to believe, and Blackmer realized that an entirely new perspective on microphone design was needed to take advantage of that. Earthworks microphones are the result, built with incredibly wide frequency response that takes into account the role that ultrasonic sounds play in what we hear. With their uniquely-shaped metal casings, Earthworks microphones are easy to pick out of a lineup. Earthworks is renowned for omnidirectional and cardioid microphones with unprecedented range, up to 40 or even 50kHz with mics such as the SR40mp QTC40mp, QTC50mp and M50mp. A 6mm electret capsule is at the heart of these condenser models, providin
