Earthworks SR314 Premium Handheld Vocal Microphone
Earthworks SR314 meets and exceeds the goals and expectations of the modern live performance environment. Its stainless steel body is expertly sculpted through precision machining. Thus, yielding an instrument that is beautiful to look at and balanced in the hand. Also, it is suitable for life on the road thanks to Earthwork’s sensible engineering.
The Instrument for Vocalists
Protected within its steel exoskeleton is a studio-quality small diaphragm cardioid condenser capsule. Also, it has a Class A amplifier circuit that leverages Earthworks’ patented and proprietary technologies. Therefore, it delivers one of the fastest mics on the planet.
The Sound of the SR314
An extended flat frequency response and a focus on fast clean impulse response set the Earthworks SR314 apart. The Earthworks SR314 doesn’t sound like a traditional microphone. Specifically, it systematically eliminates the many layers of distortion and noise normally added by each acoustic and electronic component. Furthermore, it pulls back the veil to reveal the true voice of the artist.
Simple, Easy and Brilliant
The SR314 democratizes exceptional live music experiences, making them accessible to everyone. Quicker soundchecks and better monitor and in-ear mixes let artists focus on what matters most – the music. Engineers are unencumbered by the necessities of heavy corrective EQ, compression and de-essing, and constant vigilance against feedback.
Audiences experience vocals that sit comfortably and easily in the mix. Furthermore, every detail and nuance bridges the gap that so often separates live music from recordings.
Built for Live Music
The SR314 goes beyond the promise of delivering studio-quality sound onstage by directly addressing the challenges intrinsic to these dynamic environments:
- Tight cardioid polar pattern with a consistent frequency response all the way out to 90 degrees means the SR314 delivers the same quality of sound even when the singer moves off-center.
- Extreme attenuation of sound sources located beyond 90 degrees with maximum rejection at 180 degrees.
- Consistent low frequency response across a wide range of distances, providing articulate detailed bass up close while not getting thin with distance.
