It features a right-angle mic head mounted on a flexible gooseneck for effortless positioning, allowing you to find the perfect angle to capture your drum's sound. Moreover, the DP30/C Periscope Microphone is designed to withstand the rigors of a live performance. It's robust enough to take a direct hit from a drumstick and keep on recording.

The Earthworks DP30/C Periscope Microphone for Tom Drums is mounted parallel to the drum shell using the RM1 RimMount, ensuring secure and stable placement during your most energetic performances.

  • Mini-gooseneck allows quick and easy positioning
  • The electronics are housed in a cylindrical tube attached to the other end of the mini-gooseneck and provide a high level, low impedance output that will prevent RFI
