Austrian Audio OC818 Studio Set Large-Diaphragm Multipattern Condenser Microphone - Black

Designed by a team of former AKG personnel, the black Austrian Audio OC818 Studio Set is a large-diaphragm studio condenser microphone, offering detailed audio capture and immense sonic customization for producers and engineers in personal and commercial recording facilities. The handmade 1" ceramic capsule features two gold-plated polymer membranes to enable multiple polar patterns. Utilize the 5-position switch to set the OC818 to figure-8, hypercardioid, cardioid, omnidirectional, or wide cardioid. Each diaphragm is routed to a separate output connector for dual-channel recording, which allows you to design custom polar pattern responses across five frequency bands via the open-source PolarDesigner plug-in or achieve a tweakable stereo image thanks to the StereoCreator plug-in (also open-source). The black finish is designed for light-critical broadcast applications on stage, where subtle finishes are needed.
