Austrian Audio OC818 Large Diaphragm Condenser Microphone with Multiple Polar Patterns Dual Set Plus, Black

Engineered and manufactured in Austria, The OC818 is Austrian Audio's premier, professional, large diaphragm microphone. Its high sensitivity, low self-noise and ability to handle everything from a whisper to extreme SPLs make it the most advanced microphone for studio, broadcast and live applications. As the unique ceramic capsule design is so consistent, any OC818 is match-paired with any other OC818, and when in cardioid mode, it can also be match-paired with any OC18, its affordable, smaller sibling.

Features

• Handmade CKR12 ceramic capsule
• Multiple polar patterns
• Microprocessor control of polarisation voltages
• Two different analogue high-pass filters with three settings
• Two different types of analogue pads
