Description
The Earthworks SR25 was purpose-built as a drum microphone, but its speed and accuracy make it a versatile tool anywhere fast transients matter. With a rapid rise time and short diaphragm settling time, it captures complex waveforms exactly as they happen — quiet attacks aren’t blurred by louder ones that came before, and nothing gets rounded off or smeared. It handles up to 145dB SPL with ease, so hard-hitting snares, kicks, and cymbals stay clean and undistorted.
What sets Earthworks cardioid mics apart is their patented near-perfect polar pattern. Rather than degrading off-axis, the SR25 stays remarkably consistent across the entire front hemisphere — flatter at 90 degrees than many mics manage on-axis. That uniformity means uncolored off-axis rejection in the studio and more usable gain before feedback on stage, with less unwanted leakage either way.
Frequency response extends out to 25kHz, giving the SR25 the extra headroom to reproduce fine detail and air that lesser mics simply miss. It’s built for extreme accuracy in the time domain, delivering a transparent, faithful sound whether you’re tracking in the studio or running it live.
