Studio Condenser Mic Quality for Your Live Vocals
Handheld condenser vocal microphones have come a long way in the last several years, and the Austrian Audio OC707 is a perfect example. Its advanced engineering ensures that you won’t have to settle for anything less than studio-quality sound for your live vocal performances. The OC707 is a true-condenser design featuring a handcrafted OCC7 open condenser capsule that’s custom tuned for optimum performance in capturing vocals. Featuring Austrian Audio’s proprietary Open Acoustics Technology, the OC707 delivers excellent handling along with superior noise suppression and feedback rejection. Superbly engineered and manufactured in Austria, the Austrian Audio OC707 captures every nuance of your vocal performances with breathtaking clarity and precision.
Versatility for any live or studio scenario
While some handheld microphones are fitted with an on-off switch that can come in handy during live performances, the OC707 is packing something rather unique for the category: a switchable highpass filter. Although the OC707 is engineered for minimized near-field bass buildup (proximity effect), the onboard second-order filter provides even more versatility for live sound and studio recording scenarios by attenuating low frequencies below 120Hz. With its versatile cardioid polar pattern, the OC707 feels natural and comfortable in handheld operation, and its body is engineered for maximum suppression of vibration-borne noise when placed on a mic stand. All in all, the Austrian Audio OC707 is a star performer, whether onstage or in the studio!
