Brand new & unboxed Austrian Audio OC7 True Condenser Instrument Microphone builds on the success of the previous OC models, with a newly developed’Swivel Joint’ design for flexible positioning options. The new swivel provides 220-degrees of rotation, allowing you to find the optimal position for your microphone in relation to the instrument. The OC7 utilises the custom OCC7 small-diaphragm capsule, specially designed to offer an open and transparent sound. Suitable for capturing stringed instruments, drums, pianos and audio for film; the OC7 delivers a high SPL, capturing every nuance of your audio source. It also has onboard attenuation controls including a switchable high-pass filter and a -10dB pad for changing the overall sound of the microphone. It also has a rugged die-cast body which makes it great for musicians on the move. From the studio to the stage, the OC7 will shine. Handmade OCC7 condenser capsule. Enjoy the utmost sonic precision, capturing every subtle nuance from your source audio; ideal for recording stringed instruments and live performances. Featuring a handmade, custom capsule; the OC7 delivers natural, transparent sound thanks to the linear frequency response and ability to withstand high sound pressure levels (SPL). It also features ultra-low self-noise, helping to provide a clean and focused overall sound. The result is a natural and open sound with silky mids and highs with a full-bodied low-end response. The OCC7 capsule takes inspiration from the iconic CK1 capsule, combining elements of the original design with modern innovation. The capsule itself is constructed with a three-micron thick gold-coated, polyethylene naphthalate (pen) diaphragm – resulting in a highly robust design. Onboard high-pass filter and -10dB pad.
