Earthworks ETHOS broadcast microphone vs SHURE SM7b and Electrovoice RE20
In this week’s episode we have a look at and listen to the Earthworks ETHOS broadcast microphone. This compact, good-looking supercardioid microphone is useful for podcasts, livestreams, and other broadcast-style content creation. In this video we listen to some sound samples, walk through the ETHOS’ feature set, conduct our usual microphone tests, and compare it to some other broadcasts mics of similar quality at similar price points, namely the SHURE SM7B and Electrovoice RE20. Let’s take a closer look and listen!
