Streamline Your Recording Process
The Austrian Audio OD5 Active Dynamic Microphone takes the OD505 vocal mic formula and converts it into an all-purpose instrument mic that’s a must-have for any studio! Austrian Audio’s Active-dynamic circuit combines the sensitivity of a condenser mic with the rugged nature of a dynamic mic, resulting in a tool that’s equally capable of recording thunderous guitar cabs as it is recording delicate wind instruments. What’s more, the OD5’s built-in swivel mechanism makes setting up and adjusting your mic a breeze, offering a 220-degree range of rotation to easily locate your source’s sweet spot. Finally, the OD5 sports Austrian Audio’s Open Acoustics technology, suspending the microphone basket and the capsule to avoid acoustic interference and to produce an incredibly precise cardioid pickup pattern.

Versatile swivel system
Austrian Audio’s innovative Swivel Joint mechanism is a lifesaver when working with cramped mic setups — no more endless re-positioning of your stands! The microphone basket is suspended in place, allowing a 220-degree range of rotation that makes everything from minute adjustments to complete repositioning a breeze.

This system’s ability to save time by significantly streamlining the process of finding your source’s sweet spot is indispensable, especially since it all but removes the headache of remounting mics and adjusting stands.

Dynamic power meets condenser flexibility
The OD5’s Active-dynamic circuit empowers this mic with a condenser-like clarity and sensitivity, but it also allows the OD5 to harness the power of built-in pads and filters! No matter how loud your source, the OD5’s -10dB pad will keep your signal clip-free, boasting a max SPL of >160dB when engaged. Plus, the OD5’s CAB (Cut and Boost) filter offers two positions — the 80Hz setting removes unnecessary low frequencies, making it a great choice for sources like guitar amplifiers. Meanwhile, the second position at 120Hz is a versatile second order highpass filter.

Austrian Audio: the new Vienna classics
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.
