This is the microphone you should buy. Period. Earthworks SR117 Review

Показать описание
The Earthworks SR117 XLR microphone takes everything Earthworks excels at, makes it better, and shoves it in a $200 "budget mic." I don't know how you justify buying a more expensive mic that doesn't perform this well anymore. This is my Earthworks SR117 Review - the best budget microphone.

Adam, a whole bunch of us at the office just sat down to watch this. This is one of the best reviews of our mics we've ever seen. Thank you SO much for your glowing praise of the SR117!!

Earthworks makes great stuff. There's so little coverage of pro audio that this is the first I've heard of it, thanks for the video! A lot of live folks are using the SEV7 these days, beats an SM58 at $100. I'd love to go with the SR117 but as a touring engineer there are some rooms where any condenser could be a problem and I'd have to carry dynamics anyway.

Fun fact: they’re called Earthworks because the company was originally established to do business related to big earth moving trucks. Then they got into loud speaker design, then ultrafast RTA mics so that they could properly measure those speakers…

This is a beautiful sounding microphone. I think its great for voiceover or anything you through at it. I would be interested to see if they'd kept a capsule like this in a more studio style body. I think as I continue recording more on-site, I may have to test this with my kit to see how it stands in that use case aside from it clearly doing well in a stationary setup.

Sounds incredible, sadly it's closer to $400 here in Europe from Thomann than the $200 from Sweetwater in the US

love the 4:3 video aspect, that mic rocks, condenser mic without picking every noisy and the sounding quality it's like shure $400 mic but no volume distortion if you don't speak directly to it, yeah I think you're right this mic is awesome.

A condenser microphone that rejects noise like that? My jaw dropped...

a condenser mic with good handling noise and good off axis rejection... what more could anybody possibly ever want? sold. couldn't agree more, and probably best new mic in this entire category since forever times. maybe as far back as the shure sm57. or at least one of very short shortlist.

sadly in the uk (and de) here it's still about 10x the price of an eq'd behringher xm8500. but then that is not a condenser mic. great review and thanks so much for suggesting this thing...

and especially as it hasn't been picked up / covered enough elsewhere. i say that because it's also nice to look around more broadly for wider variety of testing samples. or comparisons on different voices, instruments. and this mic is still relatively new mic atm. just lovely review, and can't wait to hear more wider variety of samples. made my day actually

What an unbelievable mic, that rejection on static background noise (fans etc) is super impressive. Any experience on how well it rejects keyboard and mouse noise?

A good mic really helps, but I think what really makes things sound so nice is when knowledgeable people, like yourself, can clean up the output really nice.

Glad to see you're able to resume your microphone reviews.i still use my Samson Q2U because you recommended it. Though I don't know if I'll upgrade anytime soon. Good to know that this exists.

I had the honor of using a matched set of Earthworks QTC-40 microphones to record classical music and choral works. Absolutely mind numbing performance and sound.

Never thought I'd end up wanting to replace my SM7B with something cheaper than it was, love the sound from this so much

How's the noise rejection compared to the Ethos?
