Yury Revich is the ECHO Klassik 2016 winner as "Newcomer of the Year" and "Young Artist of the Year" 2015 by the International Classical Music Awards.
Colin actually doesn't do quotes ;) He tested the OC818 on drums Overheads at the production rehearsal, was very happy with the results and decided to use the mics on the Herbert Grönemeyer stadium tour Europe 2019.
