Overview
The Earthworks CMK4 CloseMic Kit is a professional drum microphone kit that uses Earthworks' carefully designed cardioid microphones. The system includes four DM20 DrumMic microphones, specifically designed for close-miking snares and toms. Each microphone is equipped with a rugged gooseneck that will not move when drums are hit hard. The DM20 is designed to withstand the rigors of on-the-road wear and tear, and it can withstand a stray stick hit. Overall, the microphones deliver high-definition audio fidelity in crucial recording applications and professional sound reinforcement. Also included in the kit are four RM1 RimMounts, four PW1 foam windscreens, and a high-impact carrying case.
