CARDIOID INSTRUMENT MICROPHONE
SR30
The Ultimate in Definition.
The Earthworks SR30 is a multi-purpose cardioid condenser microphone designed for instrument miking in live performance and studio recording environments.
The Detail You Deserve
With a lighting fast transient response, the SR30 handles sharp attacks with ease, while still capturing all of the subtle nuances.


Nothing Short of Superior
Its near-perfect cardioid polar pattern is consistent across all frequencies, with over 30dB of off-axis rejection.

I was really impressed with the wider and more uniform frequency response of the Earthworks mics and I love the fact that I don’t encounter phase cancellation issues when using multiple microphones together. These mics have excellent rear rejection characteristics, which eliminates unwanted sounds and they handle the fast attack transients beautifully.
