What Friends Are Saying
“I really love the inclusion of adventure within my compositions and keeping that spontaneous, natural element in my work.
“The Austrian Audio OC818 are - without a doubt - the most versatile mics I’ve ever had in my studios ! Used them already in countless tracking sessions and they never failed to surprise me on so many different instruments and vocals with their unique clarity, incredible body and super smooth top end !”.
When selecting mics, I always look for something that provides clarity, but also captures the vibe.
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.
On stage, it is important that emotions, thoughts and subtleties in the voice reach the audience.
