Earthworks ETHOS XLR Broadcasting Condenser Microphone, Stainless Steel

Groundbreaking performance tailored around the needs of the talent, the engineer and the audience. ETHOS is as comfortable in a traditional broadcast studio as it is on the desk of a top streamer. Sophisticated and uncomplicated, impactful without being hyped. And like all Earthworks microphones, ETHOS is built for speed and designed to capture every transient. A low-profile finish, for high-profile people. In audio, our perception of what feels real and natural is incredibly sensitive to resolution in the time domain. In particular, the level of detail present in the initial transient is responsible for much of our sense of content, meaning, and frequency balance. This includes defining attributes like “timbre”, “texture”, and “air”. Earthworks blazingly fast technology at the core of ETHOS ensures that every performance sounds like life.
