Active Dynamic Instrument Microphone
Austrian Audio - OD5
Perfect performance. Everywhere.The Austrian Audio OD5 introduces an active-dynamic microphone designed for use on instruments. Handmade in Vienna and subject to the strictest quality assurance processes, the OD5 instrument microphone once again comes with some unique features in true Austrian Audio style.
Most noticeable is the “Swivel Joint” mechanism. To simplify the positioning of the instrument microphone, Austrian Audio’s engineers have designed a suspension system for the microphone basket to allow for a 220° rotation of the field. This allows the microphone to be directly aligned to the sound source or according to personal sound preferences.
A feature recognised from the OD505 vocal microphone is the active-dynamic circuit. This ensures that even long cable runs have no negative impact on the signal. The active-dynamic design also allows the integration of a proper high-pass filter. As a very versatile instrument microphone, the OD5 will find many uses. Perfectly suited for use on various drums; a custom mount is available as an optional accessory; it works on guitar amplifiers too, as well as in front of wind instruments.
