Earthworks P30/HC-B Periscope Hypercardioid Condenser Mic

Hypercardioid pre-polarized condenser high-definition periscope microphone

MFR# P30/HC-B

Product Description

Distinct voices with unique sonic characteristics make up a choir, be it tens of hundreds of voices. Capturing that sound without feedback, distortion or noise takes the right microphone. Stand mounted, the Earthworks P30/HC microphone transforms your choir into a harmonious voice full of detail.

Designed to provide an ultra-flexible miking option, the P30/HC is ideal for choir miking, and can easily transition to miking a wide range of acoustic and electric instruments.

Thanks to its flexible gooseneck, the P30/HC provides extra simplicity when trying to find that sweet spot. Instead of having to reposition the whole microphone or mic stand, simply flex the gooseneck to quickly reposition the microphone.

The P30/HC’s near-perfect cardioid polar pattern is consistent across all frequencies, simplifying mic placement, ensuring more gain before feedback and virtually eliminating phasing issues when using multiple microphones. With over 30 dB of rear rejection, the P30/HC is ideal for live performances or recording environments where there may be bleed from surrounding instruments.

It handles transients with ease, reproducing every detail no matter how sharp or subtle. Handling up to 139 dB SPL without distortion, it is nearly impossible to overload the P30/HC, even with the loudest sources.

Set on flexible goosenecks, the microphone capsules can be easily repositioned for optimal microphone placement.

I would like to thank VK for the wonderful sales assistance, service and prices. This was my first purchase with you and it won't be my last. I only wish I'd discovered you years ago!

I had two Grammy wins this year - Ray LaMontagne & Carolina Chocolate Drops. Both made with help from Vintage King!

In almost 20 years in Pro audio buying, never did I receive a unit so well packed and exactly as described. Works flawlessly. The whole process has been so smooth. I will never hesitate to do business with you guys in the future and will recommend you to everyone I know.

This was my first experience buying something from Vintage King (although I surf the "used" categories on the website frequently!), and, despite being on the other side of the world, I had absolutely no trouble and everything went very smoothly.

The speed of delivery exceeded my expectations! I was VERY pleased that my shipment arrived in time for a scheduled vocal tracking session. The packing insured that my order arrived safely. And the sales staff responded quickly to questions regarding the product.

You guys have excellent customer service and I am excited about the next upgrade I complete on my fifth recording facility. I've been in the studio business for forty plus years. The salesman I worked with at Vintage King was the best of the best. You all rock!

My experience with Vintage King was excellent. The order was here fast considering it was out of stock. The sales person had SKB send it to me directly and I couldn't have been more pleased.
Michael D.
From the minute I placed my order I was kept well-informed through each step in your process. Even though I was buying a comparatively modest piece of gear, your attention to detail made me feel like I was purchasing a six-figure mixing desk.
Thomas W.
I am a new customer of yours. You guys provided me the absolute best deals in ordering all the equipment to power my brand new recording studio. Your customer service is amazing and i will always deal with you from here on out.
