Apraksts
The handmade 1" ceramic capsule features two gold-plated polymer membranes to enable multiple polar patterns. Utilize the 5-position switch to set the OC818 to figure-8, hypercardioid, cardioid, omnidirectional, or wide cardioid. Each diaphragm is routed to a separate output connector for dual-channel recording, which allows you to design custom polar pattern responses across five frequency bands via the open-source PolarDesigner plug-in or achieve a tweakable stereo image thanks to the StereoCreator plug-in (also open-source).
Alternatively, the secondary output can be connected to the optional OCR8 Bluetooth module if you wish to enjoy convenient wireless control and selection of 255 polar patterns via the free iOS/Android PolarPilot app. Front-panel switches are provided for easy access to the pad and roll-off settings. Set the pad to -10 or -20 dB to avoid distortion when miking loud sources such as drums or guitar cabinets. Activate the high-pass filter at 40, 80, or 160 Hz for attenuation of low-frequency problems, including rumble and proximity effect. The OC818's housing is constructed of zinc-aluminum alloy for strength and durability. The OC818 Dual Set Plus includes two shockmounts, two mic clips, a stereo bar, two mini 5-pin XLR to 3-pin XLR cables, two windscreens for mitigating noise from breaths and blasts of air, and a protective carry case for easy transport and storage of the entire bundle.
Dual Set Plus vs Live Set
- Both bundles include two OC818 microphones, two mic clips, two windscreens, and two mini-XLR cables
- The Dual Set Plus bundle adds two shockmounts, a stereo bar, and a large case to house the entire bundle
Precision Capsule
- CKR12 ceramic capsule is handmade in-house at Austrian Audio's facility in Vienna
- Made to the same critical dimensions as the classic CK12 capsules
- Matched within 1 dB of every other OC18 or OC818
Studio Sound Quality
- High sensitivity and low self-noise means it can handle everything from a whisper to extreme SPLs without distortion
- Two-stage pad (-10 or -20 dB) to prevent distortion
- High-pass filter with three positions (40, 80, or 160 Hz) for reduction of low-frequency rumble and excessive bass
PolarPilot App
- Wireless control of polar pattern, pad, and high-pass filter settings in real time via Bluetooth (optional OCR8 required)
- Save, recall, and share favorite settings
- Discover and create 255 discrete polar patterns
- One setting can be stored in OC818 for use without PolarPilot app
- No digital technology in the audio or bias paths
- 60-second clipping monitor/logger
PolarDesigner Plug-In
- Craft different polar pattern responses across 1-5 crossover bands
- Store, recall, and share presets
- Powerful Terminator AI for eliminating or rescuing selected frequencies and instruments
- Equalization control for imprinting the tonality of free-field or diffuse-field idealized responses
- Per-band solo/mute
- Supports comprehensive automation
- Linear phase
- Optimized for use with the OC818 in dual-output mode, but works with any dual-output source
Stereo Creator Plug-In
- Stereo with one OC818
- Three different stereo techniques with fantastic post-processing possibilities using two OC818s
- One 4-channel recording, three different stereo techniques (X/Y, Mid-Side, Blumlein)
- Adjust spatiality in post processing
- Change stereo width in post processing
- Change orientation in post processing
AmbiCreator Plug-In
- Create an Ambisonic B-format signal with two OC818 microphones
Galvenās funkcijas
- 5-position polar pattern switch for figure-8, hypercardioid, cardioid (dual-cardioid mode when using the secondary output), omnidirectional, and "preset mode," which defaults to wide cardioid, but can be set to anything via the free iOS/Android PolarPilot app and optional OCR8 Bluetooth dongle (required for PolarPilot control)
- Microprocessor control of polarization voltages allows remote controlled polar pattern settings
- Dual outputs for recording each diaphragm separately
- Balanced 3-pin XLR main output
- Mini 5-pin XLR secondary output
- Includes mini 5-pin XLR to 3-pin XLR adapter cable for secondary output
- 48V phantom powered
- Includes shockmount, mic clip, windscreen, and protective carry case
- Debuts Austrian Audio's Open Acoustics Technology
- Works with select downloadable open-source plug-ins for extra flexibility
