DRUM KIT The typical practice of miking drums normally involves the use of five to seven mics (or more). While developing a new 25kHz Series of microphones for percussion, we tried using only two mics for overheads and one for kick drum. The result absolutely blew us away. We then made a comparative recording of the same drum set using seven other mics that are some of the industry favorites for miking drums. 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 Earthworks Drumkit System, providing a dramatic improvement in the sound quality of miking drums. This is truly astonishing you must hear it for yourself.
