Earthworks DK6 Six-Piece Drum Mic Kit

For many engineers, drums are among the most difficult instruments to mic; however, that’s not the case if you have the Earthworks DK6 in your toolbox. Teeming with Earthworks’ industry-redefining sound, this 6-piece drum microphone kit certifies that every component of your kit — and every nuance of your performance — is captured. What’s more, the DK6’s included mounts ensure trouble-free mic placement with zero guesswork. All the DK6’s microphones have tight polar patterns, providing you with focus, detail, and musicality at the front with astounding rejection from the back, across all frequencies. You also get impressive SPL handling to safeguard against clipping and incredibly high gain before feedback. To top it off, these mics boast an extremely robust design that’s tough enough for live sound reinforcement and recording studio, livestreaming, and video recording environments. Complete with a custom SKB case for worry-free travel, the DK6 gives you everything you need to achieve a no-compromise drum sound.

Includes six premium-quality microphones
The DK6 comprises six Earthworks microphones that are tailor-made for drum-miking duties. For starters, the DM6 SeisMic was designed to contain the loud, thunderous sound of a kick drum. Three DM17 mics enable you to capture the sound of your snare and toms flawlessly and without the time-consuming guesswork. Finally, you get a stereo pair of SR20 Gen 2 mics — a premium-quality choice for overhead duties. The DK6 also comes with a rugged SKB case to make transporting your entire setup a piece of cake.
Near-bulletproof mounting system
Achieving a great drum sound with the Earthworks DK6 is easy, thanks to its included mounting system. The DM6 comes with a Triad-Orbit M2-R short-stem orbital mic adapter, which lets you make fine adjustments to your mic positioning in tight spaces for spot-on results every time you set up. The DM17 mics come with Earthworks’ RM3 rim mounts that combine ultra-precise placement with clip-on ease with a sizable array of drum hoops and suspension mounts. Here at Sweetwater, we understand that time is money, which is one more reason why we appreciate the DK6 — it’s one of the most intuitive microphone kits we’ve ever used.
DM6
Most Professionals need two microphones to get the perfect Kick drum sound, but the DM6 sounds perfect right out of the box and might just be the only mic on the planet that’s bold enough to go solo on your bass drum.
DM17
DM17 is the easiest, most accessible path to our signature premium sound on snare and toms. Includes the RM3 low-profile, tour-quality solution for securely rim-mounting DM17, eliminating the need for mic stands and enabling easy setup.
SR20sp Gen 2
Pop. Hip hop. Rock. Country. Worship. SR20 Gen 2 does it all while making it look easy. It’s cutting-edge technology that feels like a secret weapon for your mix.
