Earthworks DM20 Cardioid Condenser Tom and Snare Drum Microphone

Earthworks DM20 Cardioid Condenser Tom and Snare Drum Microphone

The DM20's right-angle capsule head and firm-yet-flexible gooseneck ensure that you can get the mic right where you want it - and that it will stay there. And with its near-perfect cardioid polar pattern, the DM20 beautifully captures the sweet spot, with excellent rejection of cymbals and stage ambience. The DM20's included RM1 RimMount eliminates the need for mic stands. At Sweetwater, we appreciate how this cuts down on setup and teardown time while keeping your drum setup neat and clutter-free.

Isolation Like
Never Before
Massive rear rejection and a polar pattern that’s consistent across the entire frequency range means any off-axis leakage is virtually nonexistent.

Electrifying Onstage
A small diaphragm capsule coupled with a proprietary Class A amplifier circuit. A staggering max acoustic input of 150dB SPL. An incredible transient response delivered with each hit.

The DM20’s rugged gooseneck lets you easily and precisely position the microphone – and makes sure it stays in place – to get your best drum sound.
