Translate Your Sound

Your drums. Your sound. The DM20 makes whatever drum you’re miking sound like just that―you. Whatever you put in front of the microphone comes back to you without hyping or hiding anything. Just a crystal clear translation of your sound.

Isolation Like Never Before

Massive rear rejection and a polar pattern that’s consistent across the entire frequency range means any off-axis leakage fades smoothly into the background in the mix.

Lightning Fast

Nothing compares to the lightning speed of the DM20. No smearing. No reflections. No unwanted coloration. Just a refreshingly crisp sound with every detail, every nuance, and every texture flawlessly intact that make your drums come to life. 

Electrifying Onstage 

Most live sound microphones sacrifice sound quality with big heavy dynamic capsules that move too slowly to capture the subtle high frequency details in the attack of a drum. Not the DM20. Its small diaphragm capsule coupled with a proprietary Class A amplifier circuit delivers an incredible transient response that’s meant for drums.

Lively Recordings

From the rich, mid lows to the crisp, airy highs, sacrifices are a thing of the past with the DM20. Record sound from a live show that leaves you wanting for nothing. Or dive into the studio with the DM20 and make every mix come to life in a way you’ve never experienced before.

Goes Where You Want…

…And Stays There

A right angle microphone head lets you easily and precisely position the microphone to get your best drum sound. Once you’ve found that sweet spot? No need to worry about the microphone creeping out of place when you start hitting the drums. Even the hardest playing won’t budge the DM20’s rugged gooseneck.

Above and beyond

The DM20 can handle whatever you throw at it…and then some. With a staggering max acoustic input of 150dB SPL, even the loudest drummer won’t overload these mics.

Goodbye Mic Stands

Keep your setup streamlined and uncluttered. Included with the DM20 is an RM1 RimMount™ for mounting the microphone directly on the rim of a snare or toms.

Career Spanning Durability

Precision machining sculpts stainless steel into a work of art…that can also take a stray stick hit. As rugged as it is beautiful, the DM20 was designed from the ground up to stand the test of time.
