What Friends Are Saying

The OC818 has become my favorite multipurpose, first-choice microphone.

Vahagn Stepanyan

After using these mics I really like how natural they sound.

Colin Norfield

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.

Salvatore Pecoraro

I discovered Austrian Audio OC818 during a music fair.

All in all, the conclusion was that you get a very comprehensive microphone, playing in the same league as the ones we compared it to.

"As a percussionist, I do not think in instruments—I think in sounds.

Like them!.
