What Friends Are Saying
The headphones have been a welcome addition, especially for late-night writing /recording sessions when the world is sleeping 😇 I never have to compromise full-on sound and tone!.
The sound from the OC818 is perfect for my voice, it is incredibly detailed and has a ‘modern vintage’ sound.
These microphones are made with decades of knowledge - for a sound that adds nothing and takes nothing away.
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.
