Austrian Audio OC616 Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone
The Austrian Audio OC616 microphone combines a clear, present character with real flexibility. As a result, it covers voices, acoustic instruments, drums, amps and room recording. Its CKR12 ceramic capsule works alongside five polar patterns, three filters and two pads. Together, they give project and professional studios one adaptable recording choice.
Open, Present Sound
The OC616 uses the CKR12 ceramic capsule, the same capsule design behind Austrian Audio’s flagship OC818. As a result, it delivers a clear, direct and defined presentation that cuts through a mix without harshness. In addition, Austrian Audio’s Open Acoustic Technology tackles internal reflections and acoustic interference before they reach the capsule. This keeps recordings open, natural and realistic.
Shape the Recording Approach
Five polar patterns suit focused single-source recording as well as stereo and M-S techniques. Meanwhile, three filters and two pads let you tailor the setup to changing source levels and conditions. Consequently, vocal, instrument and room sessions start from a more considered place.
Ready for Quiet or Loud Sources
The microphone offers a 157 dB maximum SPL and 134 dB dynamic range. Therefore, it handles everything from speech and vocals to drum overheads and guitar or bass amps. It also captures acoustic guitar, piano, strings, percussion and room ambience with an open, detailed presentation.
One Mic, Many Sessions
This large-diaphragm condenser covers a broad range of recording work. For example, it fits project studios, professional studios, live production, content creation and broadcast. It also suits vocal and voice-over duties, acoustic instruments, overheads, amps, stereo recording and room microphones. In other words, you don’t need a different specialised microphone for every task.
