The Earthworks DK7 Gen 2 Drum Microphone Kit is designed for capturing your full drum set and the perfect solution for both live performance and studio recording environments.
You picked the best cymbals, you chose your favorite wood tones, you obsessed over your snare sound — your drum tunings are perfect and your kit is immaculate. So why would you even think about anything other than an Earthworks DK7? And now with the 2nd generation DM20s and a matched pair of SR25s for overheads, the all-new 2nd generation DK7 is even more luxurious. Even if you're just recording your practice sessions at home, your drums deserve this level of quality and craftsmanship
New Active Electronics
We've hardened the internal electronics to draw less phantom power, and we've built in additional protection features to safeguard against accidental hot swapping. We all know that you shouldn't plug in a condenser microphone with the power engaged but we also know that's an inevitably in the field sometimes. These new stacked changes make the DK7 Gen 2 more robust, more compatible, and more user-friendly.
New Rim Mounting System
Everything about the DK7 Gen 2 is designed for speed — and that includes the speed of set up and tear down. The new and improved rim mounting solution for the tom and snare drums saves massive amounts of time while delivering a much better user experience. And it's compatible with even more kits and percussive instruments.
Smaller, Stronger Case
The new SKB road case is more rugged, more durable, and easier to pack, load and ship.

Highly recommended!
Feb 18th 2021You can't go wrong with Earthworks mics, and they stand behind their products with great customer service. The DK7 kit took my drum recordings to the next level. The sound is clean, transparent, and accurate. I barely have to use EQ on my mixes. Couldn't be happier!

The Best Drum Mics I Have Ever Used!!!
Jul 11th 2020I have used a few different brands of drum mics over the years, but one thing I didn't like was that most of the mics I used added "color" to drums. I tune my drums to very tight tolerances for tone and pitch, and adding color from the mic made this hard. Earthworks mics capture my drums with amazing clarity, so now what I am recording sounds exactly the way my tuned set sounds. I am very pleased with this set, and have already invested on additional Earthworks mics for my kit. Highly recommended!
