Earthworks QTC50 Small-Diaphragm Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone

Description

The QTC Series (Quiet Time Coherent), which includes this QTC50 small-diaphragm omnidirectional condenser microphone, is designed for recording quieter sources such as vocals, strings and distant miked orchestras or choirs. These low-noise omnis are also an excellent choice for drum overheads, close-miked wind and percussion instruments. Earthworks´ reputation for realism is based on these distinctive omnis. Time Coherent Response means these models do not smear the time domain as most microphones do.
