EARTHWORKS DM20 G2

In the studio, on stage, and on major streaming platforms, the DM20 has established itself as the go-to microphone for toms and snare drums. It has become an industry standard thanks to its ability to deliver a full, well-defined sound quickly and effectively. The second generation further improves on all features, making the product even more practical and high-performing.

The internal electronics have been optimized to consume less phantom power and include new protections against accidental hot-plugging. Although it is advisable to avoid connecting a condenser microphone to active power, in practice it can happen. These updates make the DM20 Gen 2 more robust, versatile, and easy to use.

The DM20 Gen 2 is designed to ensure quick setup and takedown, significantly improving the user experience. The new rim-mounting system not only drastically reduces installation time but is compatible with an even wider range of drums and percussion instruments.

The DM20 Gen 2 is extremely versatile, designed for live sound reinforcement. It accurately captures the sonic details of a condenser microphone while maintaining the ease of use of a dynamic microphone. This combination makes it ideal for streaming, video recording, and all studio applications.
