Earthworks PM40T PianoMic™ System Touring Model (collapsible mic with smaller case for airline carry-on)

The PM40T Touring PianoMic System designed by Earthworks takes the PM40 PianoMic system and makes it the simply installed mobile microphone system, perfect for touring. The PM40T uses an unconventional approach for capturing piano with superior results while keeping the microphones hidden from view. Two top-qualities, random-incidence omni-directional microphones are mounted onto a telescoping bar for close-miking within the piano itself.

The microphone capsules can be mounted to either face, or point away from the dampers. The capsules themselves feature flex-arm goosenecks that enable further microphone adjustments to be made in order to achieve desired audio results. The PianoMic connects to the 5-pin input of the PMVM1 electronics-box, which in turn features 3-pin XLR outputs for connecting to a stereo preamplifier, two mixer channel inputs, etc.

 While many experienced engineers may find the close-miking technique unconventional, special technology ensures optimum results and placement inside the piano means less leakage from nearby instruments, speaker cabinets and other noise sources.
