Manufacturer's Description from Earthworks

The Earthworks Audio DM6 SeisMic Kick Drum Microphone is absolutely unfair to all other mics on kick drum and bass amps. This is why you hear Earthworks drum mics whenever you watch a Drumeo tutorial video. This is why you see Earthworks drum mics on every drum streaming channel. This is why it was an all Earthworks stage at the 400th anniversary party for Zildjian.

The DM6 sounds perfect right out of the box for those situations when you don't have enough time for a proper soundcheck or for when you have volunteers on the boards at church or at the small venues. But it's versatile and powerful enough to take whatever creative EQ that you want to apply for flavor.

About Manufacturer

Earthworks was formed by David Blackmer, the inventor of dbx, to realize his vision of upgrading the entire audio chain to a new standard of sonic realism. David's goal of creating high definition tools with which to capture the sound and experience of "being there" is based upon a strong evidence that there is more to human hearing than the range of frequencies which can be heard as tones. We are convinced that audio equipment with extended frequency response and faster, cleaner time domain performance will yield more life-like results. Traditional audio methadology appears to be based on working around the limitations, imperfections, and personality quirks of the equipment, and calling the ones you like "assets". WE believe that any part of the audio chain can be improved to the point where the standard is so high that any product meeting it will be indistinguishable from any other product meeting the same standard, and that an audio system built to such standard can achieve sonic reality. This standard, for electronic equipment, is met by our Zero Distortion Technology. We support the concept of recording acoustic events accurately enough to capture the sound as it happened in the room. This approah allows you to make sonic coloration and texture choices later, when you can consider them carefully and still have recourse. Life-like accuracy is the best starting point for whatever unique coloration you may wish to add.
