The Earthworks DM20 G2 Supercardioid Tom and Snare Drum Microphone engineered for exceptional sound quality and isolation. Its meticulously designed polar pattern effectively eliminates unwanted noise by providing over 25 dB of rejection at 140 degrees and an average of over 16 dB across the back 180 degrees. This consistent performance across all frequencies ensures accurate and detailed drum capture while significantly reducing unwanted noise.

Equipped with next-generation electronics, the DM20 G2 operates efficiently with only 6 mA of phantom power, making it compatible with a wide range of equipment including transformer-based preamps and splits. Its robust design can withstand potential power surges often associated with hot-plugging, safeguarding the microphone, preamp, and other gear. This durability is ideal for demanding live performance and recording environments.

The DM20 G2 excels in capturing the true essence of drums with its lightning-fast impulse response and flat, extended frequency response. This microphone delivers pristine audio reproduction, faithfully capturing every nuance and detail of the drum performance without coloration. Its ability to accurately reproduce the speed and character of drum transients contributes significantly to the overall impact and realism of the recorded drum sound. Whether in a studio or on stage, the DM20 G2 offers a transparent and detailed sonic representation of the drum kit.

The Earthworks DM20 G2's combination of precision, power, and purity elevates both recordings and live performances to new heights. Its exceptional isolation, durability, and transparent sound reproduction make it a valuable tool for drum engineers and musicians seeking to achieve the highest level of audio quality.
