Engineered and manufactured in Austria, The OC818 is Austrian Audio’s premier, professional, large diaphragm microphone. Its high sensitivity, low self-noise and ability to handle everything from a whisper to extreme SPLs make it the most advanced microphone for studio, broadcast and live applications. As the unique ceramic capsule design is so consistent, any OC818 is match-paired with any other OC818, and when in cardioid mode, it can also be match-paired with any OC18, its affordable, smaller sibling.

Features

  • Handmade CKR12 ceramic capsule: Made to the same critical dimensions as the classic CK12 capsules
  • Multiple polar patterns: Cardioid, omnidirectional & custom programmable
  • Microprocessor control of polarisation voltages: Allows remote controlled polar pattern settings
  • Two different analogue high-pass filters with three settings: 40 Hz, 80 Hz, 160 Hz
  • Two different types of analogue pads: -10 dB, -20 dB
  • Dual outputs: for recording each diaphragm separately

The heart of the OC818: CKR12 Ceramic Capsule

We bring passion to everything we do, and nobody brings more than our engineering team. Every CKR12 ceramic capsule is handmade in-house at our facility in Vienna and now we are developing the next generation of transducer and microphone builders to serve our expanding customer-base.
