What Friends Are Saying
The OC-B6 has been on two records already and the kick drum sound is amazing! I truly love it.
I was at the legendary Rockfield Studios in January, recording a full band setup, and have the OC818 in dual capsule mode in front of the kit.
"We're more than happy with the mics! They give us the perfect sound to really get the crowd going, and since we switched to the OD505 capsules, our sound engineer has had a much easier time getting our voices to cut through the massive instrumentals.
"I still love to use real instruments like my beloved upright piano! The CC8 pair I got is so well-matched that the stereo imaging is insane: XY or ORTF always a pleasure! Loving the midrange also perfect for acoustic guitars!".
