The Drum Periscope High Definition Microphones are designed for close miking
toms and snare drums, and will take a direct hit from a drumstick. A right angle
mic head is mounted to the gooseneck for easy positioning. The Drum Periscope is
mounted parallel to the drum shell with the RM1 RimMount.
Earthworks SMC1 Features
- Improved impulse response for faster and more accurate transients
- Shorter diaphragm settling time to prevent quieter attacks from being
blurred by earlier loud attacks
- Extended frequency response to 30 kHz to capture a crisper and more
realistic image
- Near perfect polar patterns that remain even across all frequencies and
at any position within the pattern
- Will take a direct hit from a drumstick
- A right angle mic head is mounted to the gooseneck for easy positioning
- Stiff mini-gooseneck that will not move when the drums are hit hard
- The microphone capsule housing is designed to protect the microphone
capsule and withstand a direct hit from a drumstick
- The electronics are housed in a cylindrical tube attached to the other
end of the mini-gooseneck and provide a high level, low impedance output
that will prevent RFI
- Cardioid polar pattern
- Frequency response of 30Hz to 30kHz
- Very fast impulse response making it ideal for reproducing the rich low
frequencies and full detail of the attack
- 145dB SPL capability ensures the mic will not overload from the loudest
of drum attacks
- Short diaphragm settling time allows you to hear a full-bodied sound
with subtle details that you cannot hear using conventional microphones
- Heavy construction enables it to withstand the punishment of the road
