What Friends Are Saying
The OC18’s sounded great on the Steinway piano, and with the right placement in a fairly controlled sounding room, they picked up the tones and dynamics of the piano beautifully.
Thomas Promitzer, FOH sound engineer for Melissa - We tested a number of products at a rehearsal and were immediately impressed! I now use the OC707WL1 capsule for the main vocals at Melissa.
“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 !”.
I’ve always been a huge fan of the OC7, such a versatile microphone, rugged build with uncompromising quality, my current favourite though is the new OC-B6, I changed my usual kick out mic for this in the middle of a tour run and was blown away by the immediate increase of definition and rich low end.
"I was impressed with the Hi-X65 because the sound separation was totally different from the headphones I had heard before.
When selecting mics, I always look for something that provides clarity, but also captures the vibe.
