What Friends Are Saying
I could totally rely on the OC707 during my unplugged shows – it conveys my voice as it is, without any frills.
“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 !”.
"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.
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.
From day one of hearing these mics at the NAMM convention we fell in love with these microphones and headphones! We love our paid or CC8 mics for our drum overheads and our HiX65 headphones in the mixing room! The gear is so solid and well-made!.
With the OD505 vocal mics we have best experiences regarding sound and minimal spill over with our very loud stage sound.
