Looking for studio-grade vocal realism, rapid transient speed, and exceptional feedback resistance on live concert stages? The Earthworks SR314 is a flagship small-diaphragm handheld condenser microphone housed in a precision-machined stainless steel exoskeleton.
Bring studio-grade detail, effortless mix placement, and uncompromising live clarity to the stage with the Earthworks SR314 Handheld Cardioid Condenser Vocal Microphone. Meticulously engineered from sculpted stainless steel, this premium vocal mic bridges the gap between high-end studio performance and the rigorous demands of live touring, houses of worship, and festival stages.
Why Choose the Earthworks SR314?
Traditional live vocal microphones often require heavy corrective EQ, compression, and feedback vigilance to sit properly in a mix. The Earthworks SR314 shatters these limitations by packing a lightning-fast small-diaphragm condenser capsule and Class-A electronics into a tour-grade handheld enclosure. Featuring a uniform frequency response out to 90 degrees off-axis and exceptional rejection of rear-axis noise, it delivers a natural, uncolored vocal performance that effortlessly cuts through high-volume stage bleed.
