Austrian Audio OC-S10 Condenser Microphone

Full Description

Versatile recording with selectable polar patterns

The OC-S10 offers five polar pattern options (omnidirectional, wide cardioid, cardioid, hypercardioid, and figure-8) giving you complete control over how sound is captured. Whether you're recording a solo vocal performance, a group, or an instrument in a live room, switching between patterns helps eliminate unwanted background noise or expand the mic’s reach. The additional dual-output mode allows you to capture multiple variations of the same take for greater flexibility in post-production.

The OC-S10 features two XLR outputs, allowing you to record separate audio signals from the same source. This dual-output capability provides more options during mixing and editing, enabling you to experiment with different processing chains or combine variations for a richer sound. If you're working in the studio or on stage, the dual output ensures maximum creative control.

Customisable sound shaping options

With three low-cut filter options (40Hz, 80Hz, and 160Hz), the OC-S10 helps you reduce rumble and unwanted low-end noise for a cleaner recording. The switchable -10dB and -20dB pads make it easy to handle loud sound sources without distortion, allowing you to capture everything from delicate vocals to powerful instruments with clarity and precision.

Reliable and easy-to-position design

The OC-S10 includes a ball-joint shock mount that makes positioning straightforward, ensuring you can achieve the perfect angle for any recording scenario. The magnetically attached frameless metal mesh pop filter effectively reduces plosive sounds while preserving vocal detail. Built with durable materials and intuitive controls, the OC-S10 is designed for long-term reliability in any recording setup.
