Austrian Audio OC818 Black Dual Set Go

Handcrafted in Vienna, the City of Music, the Austrian Audio OC818 is a revolutionary multi-pattern, dual-output large-diaphragm condenser microphone with optional wireless control. Designed for modern studios and engineers seeking both precision and flexibility, the OC818 offers four selectable polar patterns, two pad settings, and three switchable high-pass filters — all operable directly on the microphone or remotely via Bluetooth using the optional OCR8 dongle.

With the included PolarDesigner plug-in (Mac & Windows), users can create custom polar patterns across up to five independent frequency bands, tailoring the microphone’s directional response to each recording scenario. The PolarPilot mobile app (iOS & Android) allows real-time wireless control over polar pattern selection, pad, and high-pass filter settings, all while maintaining a fully analogue audio signal path. There is no digital conversion in the bias or signal chain, ensuring uncompromised sonic quality.

Perfect for studio, touring, or broadcast environments, the Austrian Audio OC818 Dual Set Go includes everything you need for stereo recording setups: two OC818 microphones, two OCC8 mini XLR cables, two OCH8 mic clips, and a durable vinyl carry case.
