What We Think

avatar

The Austrian Audio OC16 is a great bang for the buck large diaphragm condenser. With the Austrian Made Capsule, you get detail and air - but with a fullness and low mid forward weight. It has a slightly masking musicality to it that just smooths things out, slightly scoops some mids, and adds a signature tone all its own. I particularly found it to perform very well on drum overheads and acoustic guitar. In it's price point, this is a mic that performs well, sounds cool, and will be hard to beat.
