Earthworks C30-S Overview

The Earthworks C30-S ChoirMic Gen 2 (White) is a professional, supercardioid condenser hanging microphone designed for accurate capture of vocal and musical performances—particularly choir groups—in houses of worship and concert halls. ChoirMic Gen 2 builds upon the quality of the original models, offering stellar polar-pattern control, an even more balanced frequency response, lower phantom-power consumption, and improved design quality. Earthworks microphones are renown for their natural and uncolored sound, extended frequency response, and pristine audio fidelity.

Flexible for All Your Needs
  • The C30-S ChoirMic Gen 2 features a small microphone head attached to a flexible mini gooseneck as well as a minimal profile that won’t attract attention away from your choir.
  • The 30’ detachable cable is made with Canare Star Quad microphone cable for enhanced immunity to RF interference.
  • The Canare cable resists twisting due to temperature and humidity changes, so you can rest assured that the microphone will stay put once it has been properly aimed.
  • At the microphone end of the cable, a locking XLR3-F connector is used. This can be unlocked using a 0.05” hex key (available separately).
  • The far end of the cable is unterminated for flexibility during installation.
Consistent Supercardioid Polar Pattern
  • Earthworks Gen 2 technology ensures that the supercardioid polar pattern is consistent across the entire frequency range, capturing natural, lifelike sound for all choir members in the entire front hemisphere, with highly effective rejection of unwanted sounds across the rear.
Flat Frequency Response, Low Noise
  • With a 20 Hz to 25 kHz flat frequency response and exceptional low noise (20 dB SPL A-weighted), the C30-S ChoirMic Gen 2 delivers studio-quality clarity and detail, for true broadcast-ready choir sound.
Included Foam Windscreen
  • The ChoirMic comes with a high-quality foam windscreen specifically chosen for its acoustic transparency and minimal effect on the microphone’s polar response.
  • You can be confident that using it to prevent indoor wind noise generated by HVAC and ceiling fans will not degrade the performance of your microphone. The windscreen also provides some protection against dust.
Other Features
  • Gen 2 circuitry reduces phantom-power consumption and maximizes compatibility across all preamp and input types.
  • Designed, tuned, and assembled in the USA.
