What Friends Are Saying
I was at the legendary Rockfield Studios in January, recording a full band setup, and have the OC818 in dual capsule mode in front of the kit.
An incredibly open, transparent, neutral and yet dynamic sound, my go-to for drums, definitely and almost always for toms.
I bought my first OC18 a few years ago and since then it is one of my “go to” Microphones for recording Vocals and Overheads in the Studio.
Since swapping out my overheads for the OC818s, my mixes have never had such a defined top end.
I remember trying out these mics for the first time at NAMM 2022 like it was yesterday, they naturally captured the low end in my vocals, which is something i am always looking for! As well as a mic that is sensitive enough for my Voice Acting jobs but can also handle my loud belting.
