Like other Austrian Audio mics we’ve tested, the off-axis response and rear rejection capability are stellar, with no resonant or scooped colouration of sounds reaching the mic at the null points of the polar pattern.

Mir gefällt der sehr offene und transparente Klang sowie die Wiedergabe der Transienten. Die „Swivel Joint“ Mechanik ermöglicht eine einfache Änderung der Positionierung, ohne jedesmal das Stativ umstellen zu müssen.

The OC7 is the darkhorse that I’ll now consider a frontrunner, with its inherent flat tonality (flat in a very good way), versatility of placement and wonderful SPL handling.

Sein Sound ist lebendig, realistisch und dabei nicht steril, die Ausstattung kann sich sehen lassen und zur praxisfreundlichen Konstruktion mit Schwenkkopf kommt eine einwandfreie Verarbeitung.

The OD5 and OC7 bring ergonomic innovation to the world of instrument mics and offer an appealing sonic contrast, with the OC7 supplying a ‘vanilla’, neutral tonal quality and the OD5 introducing some rock & roll excitement.

A new angle on great sound.

The OC7 translates Austrian Audio’s superior true condenser technology and sonic signature into a specialized design for close-miking instruments, drums and amplifiers. Our proprietary OCC7 capsule gives the OC7 a wide frequency response and high SPL resistance, so you can record everything from acoustic guitar to snare drums with clarity and nuance.

The microphone’s original swivel joint design offers 220º rotation for maximum flexibility and accuracy in even the tightest spaces. Like any good instrument microphone, the OC7 can also take a direct hit from a drumstick and not miss a beat thanks to its ultra-durable metal enclosure. Simple and reliable, the OC7 will inspire you to capture recordings from a new perspective.

The heart of the OC7

At the heart of the Austrian Audio CC8 microphone beats the newly-developed OCC7 small-diaphragm condenser capsule. Inspired by the legendary CK1, the OCC7 delivers all the benefits of that classic design updated to meet the demands of today. Shaped by the past; built for the future.

The OCC7 capsule and transformerless output gives the OC7 a remarkably linear frequency response, handling extremely high sound pressure levels (SPL) of up to 154 dB (160 dB with pad), without distorting.

Made in Vienna. Again.
