Handcrafted in Vienna, this precision tool is engineered for professional mixing engineers and artists who demand uncompromising sonic purity and absolute control at the source. By combining a legendary capsule heritage with forward-thinking electronic design, the OC-S10 delivers a confident authority to any recording session, whether in a high-stakes boutique studio or a demanding production environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"OC-S10 | Flagship Mic Explained | Austrian Audio\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/sGk6EXBPVjo\" height=\"621\" width=\"1103\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Precision of the CKR12 Ceramic Capsule\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAt the heart of the OC-S10 lies the handcrafted CKR12 ceramic capsule, a modern re-engineering of the legendary CK12 design. Unlike vintage capsules that may drift over time, the ceramic backplate provides exceptional stability and manufacturing consistency. This ensures that every nuance of a performance is captured with a natural, open top end and a detailed, dimensional midrange. The result is a microphone that offers the \"G-code\" of sound quality, delivering mix-ready tracks with zero artificial coloration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUnprecedented Post-Production Flexibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe OC-S10 features an innovative dual-output design that allows the front and back of the capsule to be recorded separately via dual full-sized XLR connectors. When used with the free PolarDesigner and StereoCreator plugins, you can modify polar patterns, adjust proximity effects, and shape room sound long after the session has ended. This turns every recording into a series of decisions you can make in post-production, offering a level of control over bleed and sibilance previously impossible with standard microphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOpen Acoustics and Mechanical Isolation\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsing a \"free-floating\" capsule approach, Austrian Audio’s Open Acoustics Technology eliminates internal reflections and obstructions within the microphone body. This transparency is paired with a dedicated shockmount that replaces traditional elastic with Y-shaped rubber suspension elements, providing superior isolation from stand-borne noise. The included ball-joint connection allows for 360-degree rotation, ensuring you can achieve the perfect mic position with ease and security.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMain features:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-pattern large-diaphragm condenser microphone with flagship performance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandcrafted CKR12 ceramic capsule for ultimate stability and consistency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnique dual-mode output for recording front and rear diaphragms independently\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFive selectable polar patterns: Omni, Wide Cardioid, Cardioid, Hypercardioid, and Figure-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdvanced Open Acoustics Technology for an unadulterated, reflection-free signal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscrete electronic design with a remarkably low 8 dB(A) noise floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree-stage analog low-cut filter and two-stage pre-attenuation pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIngenious sequential lockout mechanism to prevent incorrect XLR connection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetented control rings for quick and visible setting adjustments from any angle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfessional shockmount with a flexible ball-joint for precise positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMagnetically attached frameless metal mesh pop filter for reflection-free protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePremium studio set including a wooden storage box and durable travel case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Includes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding-left: 40px;\"\u003e1x OC-S10 Large-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone\u003cbr\u003e1x Professional Shockmount with Ball-Joint Mount\u003cbr\u003e1x Magnetic Frameless Metal Mesh Pop Filter\u003cbr\u003e1x Wooden Storage Box\u003cbr\u003e1x Heavy-Duty Travel Carrying Case\u003cbr\u003e1x Quick Start Guide\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTech Specs:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Reference Microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTransducer Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Large Diaphragm Condenser\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCapsule:\u003c\/strong\u003e CKR12 Ceramic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolar Patterns:\u003c\/strong\u003e Omni, Wide Cardioid, Cardioid, Hypercardioid, Figure-8, Individual (Dual Mode)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20 Hz – 22 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity:\u003c\/strong\u003e 14 mV\/Pa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEquivalent Noise Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8 dB SPL (A)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum SPL:\u003c\/strong\u003e 147 dB SPL (up to 157 dB with pads)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLow Cut Filter:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 Hz, 80 Hz (2nd order), 160 Hz (1st\/2nd order)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSwitchable Pad:\u003c\/strong\u003e -10 dB, -20 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOutput Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e 108 Ω (Symmetrical)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLoad Impedance:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u0026gt; 1 kΩ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupply Voltage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 48 V Phantom Power (\u0026lt; 3 mA)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnectors:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2 x 3-pin XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 205 mm x 63 mm x 63 mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 710 g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Austria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExplore Austrian Audio Premium Studio Microphones:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/austrian.audio\" title=\"Discover Austrian Audio Premium Microphone Solutions\" style=\"color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehttps:\/\/austrian.audio\/product\/oc-s10\/\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Austrian Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42109192667172,"sku":"ADSRS_OC-S10","price":66695.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/8294\/files\/ADSRS_OC-S10_img_00.png?v=1784923160","url":"https:\/\/www.audiosaurus.co.za\/products\/austrian-audio-oc-s10-condenser-microphone","provider":"Audiosaurus ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
