CELEBRATING 5 YEARS OF EXCELLENCE

The new Hi-X18: More than a limited special edition – it’s an anniversary in every note.

What Friends Are Saying

If I could only have one microphone on my next production it would surely be the 818.

Mike Avenaim

When selecting mics, I always look for something that provides clarity, but also captures the vibe.

Andrew Peters

The sound from the OC818 is perfect for my voice, it is incredibly detailed and has a ‘modern vintage’ sound.

Chris Hewitt

The OC818 and OC18 have become my go-to choice for drum overheads, but I regularly use them on guitar amps and even studio vocals.

These microphones are made with decades of knowledge - for a sound that adds nothing and takes nothing away.

An incredibly open, transparent, neutral and yet dynamic sound, my go-to for drums, definitely and almost always for toms.

Wyatt Stav

Using the OC 18 in a stereo pair as overheads, as well as a mic for vocal recording when creating videos has changed the way I produce content.
