Austrian Audio

Recording has never been this easy. Austrian Audio are serving up some brilliant ideas packed into their cool, sleek collection of condenser microphones.

They're leading the charge for app control real time integration. One of the key features of Austrian Audio mics is the ability to customise your polar patterns and EQ, and then apply them to the mic via Bluetooth from the comfort of your seat. This is all down to the forward-thinking PolarPilot app and PolarDesigner plug-in.

About Austrian Audio

Austrian Audio are a new boutique microphone brand on the scene but are far from lacking the experience to show. Based in Vienna, the company consists of 22 former AKG employees with backgrounds in management and engineering disciplines.

They bring a cumulative 335 years of microphone and audio experience in mechanical design to acoustics, and rigorous testing procedures to software knowledge. You’re certainly in safe hands with Austrian Audio.

CKR12 Capsule

Very few people in the world can design or handcraft a classic edge-terminated capsule. Luckily, the Austrian Audio team have been building high-end transducers for over 20 years. They’re carefully constructed with skill and tradition.   

The OC818 is equipped with Austrian Audio’s outstanding CKR12 handmade capsule. This is capable of multiple in-built polar patterns and houses two customisable high-pass filters, two types of analogue pads and polarization voltage control.

Change your approach to recording. The OC818 is arguably the most customisable and versatile microphone in the world. It can adapt to any audio type or way you want to capture sound.

Austrian Audio microphones are calibrated to within one decibel of each other – add another OC18 or OC818 to record in perfect stereo harmony.
