Make It Boom. Keep it Pure.

Handcrafted in Vienna, the OC-B6 is the world’s first large-diaphragm condenser kick mic. Built for brutal 170 dB SPL, with pure, uncolored tone, a 25 Hz subsonic filter, and a 220° swivel head. Vintage tump or modern attack – you’re in full control. No distortion. No pre-EQ. No compromises.

What Friends Are Saying
Peter Wolf

After doing some first recordings with my brand new Bösendorfer grand piano I must state that the Austrian Audio OC818s are an upgrade towards the comparable model by any means; acoustically, electronically as well as outstanding software based accessories.

“It’s the best modern microphone I’ve heard… since forever!”.

Emily Craig on Guitar using Austrian Audio OC818

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 Lang drummer

I am totally enthusiastic about the two OC18.

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.

One of the things I love about the Austrian OD505WL1 is how effortlessly it captures every detail, even in dynamic environments.
