Earthworks QTC40
Omni Directional Microphone

The Earthworks QTC40 provides flat, extended frequency response, superb impulse response, very high sensitivity and that great Earthworks sound with lower self noise. It is an extraordinarily accurate microphone, typically within ±0.5dB from 20Hz to 20kHz. More importantly, the Earthworks QTC40's impulse response is the cleanest we have measured. Impulse information embedded within the tones of music is the detail needed to capture the experience of being there. Clean impulse performance allows the Earthworks QTC40 to transduce wave forms exactly. The Earthworks QTC40 will provide a true and accurate representation of sonic events as they happened in the air, the experience of being there.

The Earthworks QTC40 is wonderful for ambient miking and for quiet sources and is also great for close miking. The Earthworks QTC40 will capture the full size and natural texture of many difficult and complex sources. They are an excellent choice for all applications where natural, uncolored pick up of sound is the desired result. The Earthworks QTC40 is excellent for Percussion, Piano, Guitar, Upright Bass, Strings, Vocals, Brass, Woodwinds, Location Recording of Classical, Jazz, Ethnic, Folk and Pop music.
