With the OC7, Austrian Audio is launching a true condenser microphone with the famous OC sound and specially optimized for use on instruments.
Handcrafted in Vienna, Austria, each OC7 undergoes rigorous quality control before being shipped. The heart of this new microphone is the OCC7 small diaphragm capsule, also handmade in Vienna. In-house development and manufacturing results in the perfect setting for the type of pickup required.
Most notable is the "Swivel Joint" mechanism. To simplify the positioning of the microphone on the instrument, Austrian Audio engineers have developed a pivoting system for the microphone head which allows a 220° rotation of the pick-up field. The microphone can be very easily aligned precisely to the sound source or to personal preference, without having to awkwardly adjust or loosen the microphone stand.
The open and transparent sound makes the OC7 a very flexible instrument microphone. It is ideal for all instruments with particularly sharp transients, especially all kinds of percussion, including snares and toms, piano, acoustic guitar but also string instruments.
