Earthworks' High-performance FullKit System
The Earthworks DK7 Drum FullKit System gives you everything you need to mic a three-tom drum kit. You get four DM20 mics, complete with RimMounts and windscreens, for close-miking toms and snare, plus two SR25 cardioids for overheads, and one specially engineered SR20LS (low sensitivity) mic for bass drum. The mics are housed in a roadworthy, high-impact case that stores each microphone with the mic mounts attached to save you setup and teardown time.

The DM20: for close positioning on snare and toms
Thanks to its diminutive form factor, the Earthworks DM20 small-diaphragm condenser is a solid drum mic choice for stage and studio. The DM20 delivers world-class Earthworks sonics along with the reliability you need for live sound applications. With the ruggedness to withstand errant stick hits, the DM20 takes the worry out of close positioning on snare and tom toms.
Stays where you put it
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.
