Product details

Austrian Audio's OC18 is the stripped-down version of the innovative OC818 large diaphragm microphone, focusing on its most important feature, the CRK12 capsule. Based on the legendary CK12 microphone capsule, the Viennese audio engineers designed their own, further developed CKR12 capsule by tracking down various originals of the famous vintage capsule around the world and meticulously testing, measuring, and evaluating them for their best features to develop much more than just a copy from the data and experience gained. The lovingly handcrafted OC18 shines with its unmistakable, transparent "Made in Vienna" sound, which performs exceptionally well both in the studio as an instrumental and vocal microphone and in loud live environments.
