The Austrian Audio OD505 WL1 Microphone Capsule brings Austrian Audio’s pioneering Active-dynamic design to your Shure wireless system. This mic capsule offers an extremely tight supercardioid pickup pattern to capture your source while rejecting unwanted background noise, with a special design that allows you to directly grip the grille with no change to your mic’s normal sound. Plus, the OD505 WL1 Capsule sports excellent control over proximity effect and features a built-in resistance to pops courtesy of a built-in diffuser. Clarity, detail, and true-to-life sound — the OD505 WL1 active-dynamic microphone capsule delivers all of these qualities in spades!
Carrying on the rich legacy of high-end Viennese transducer and microphone design into the modern era, Austrian Audio is driven by an engineering team with over 300 years of combined experience. Their motto: "Making Passion Heard." Their mission: to design and manufacture a new generation of recording tools that embrace cutting-edge technologies and sonic excellence while honoring Vienna’s rich musical heritage. That vision is realized in Austrian Audio’s proprietary handcrafted capsules and the superior build quality of their products.
The outstanding sound of the Austrian Audio OD505 vocal microphone with active dynamic circuitry has already won over many FOH engineers, technicians and artists. The OD505 WL1 is the ideal solution for all those who are mobile during their performance and depend on a wireless system, but want to retain the authentic Austrian Audio sound.
The OD505 WL1 is the perfect performance partner for any artist, whether lead or backing vocals. The natural tuning and superb signal quality provide the perfect foundation to bring out the strengths of any voice with minimal tweaks required.
In many live situations, audio bleed is a big problem. That’s why a supercardioid polar pattern was chosen for the OD505. This optimally fades out unwanted interference and focuses on the voice. Spill from ie. drums or other loud instruments in the immediate vicinity is reduced to a minimum.
Austrian Audio’s Open Acoustic sound remains present over the radio transmission.
Made in Vienna. Again.
