Earthworks: the New Science in Microphones
David Blackmer, the brilliant engineer who in-
vented the technologies of dbx, is also the inven-
tor and founder of Earthworks. In the last few
years of his life, David developed a number of
revolutionary technologies that dramatically
improve the quality and performance of micro-
phones. In short, Earthworks High Definition
Microphones™ will pick up sounds and details
that other microphones cannot. These dramatic
improvements are in the areas of impulse re-
sponse, diaphragm settling time and improved
polar pattern technologies. Those who have heard
Earthworks High Definition Microphones™ say
that they hear more attack, more subtle detail and a more pristine quality in
the sound than with any other microphones regardless of price. Since David’s
death in 2002 the Earthworks engineers have continued to develop new inno-
vations in microphone design such as the PianoMic™ System, FlexWand™
and High Definition Drum Microphones.
