## Long description

The Austrian Audio OD5 is a professional-grade active dynamic instrument microphone engineered for high-precision sound capture in both studio and live environments. Designed and manufactured in Vienna, this microphone combines robust construction with advanced acoustic technology to deliver clear and accurate audio reproduction for a wide range of musical instruments.
Advantages
The primary advantage of the OD5 is its innovative active-dynamic circuit, which maintains signal integrity even over long cable runs, ensuring consistent performance in complex setups. The microphone features a unique Swivel Joint mechanism that allows the microphone basket to rotate 220 degrees, providing unparalleled flexibility when positioning the mic relative to the sound source. Furthermore, the inclusion of an integrated high-pass filter allows for effective low-frequency management, while the high sensitivity rating ensures that even subtle nuances of an instrument are captured with professional clarity.
Suitable for
Recording drums and percussion instruments
Capturing sound from guitar amplifiers
Miking wind instruments
Live stage performances and studio recording sessions
When it may not be suitable
This microphone is specifically optimized for instrument applications and may not be the ideal choice for vocal recording, where a dedicated vocal microphone might provide more tailored frequency responses. Additionally, because it is an active dynamic microphone, it requires phantom power to operate, which may not be available on all legacy or portable recording equipment.
Key specifications
Frequency response: 20 - 18000 Hz
Microphone sensitivity: 151 dB
Connectivity: Wired XLR
Impedance: 275 Ohm
Dimensions: 82 mm x 54 mm x 147 mm
Color: Black
How to use
To use the Austrian Audio OD5, connect it to your audio interface or mixing console using a standard XLR cable. Ensure that 48V phantom power is enabled on your preamp or mixer, as the active circuitry requires this power to function correctly. Use the Swivel Joint mechanism to adjust the angle of the microphone head toward your sound source, such as a guitar cabinet or drum head, to achieve the desired tonal balance. Once positioned, monitor the signal levels to ensure they are within the optimal range for your recording device.
What to consider before purchase
Ensure your audio interface or mixer provides 48V phantom power.
Verify that your recording environment is suitable for a dynamic microphone.
Consider the specific mounting requirements for your instrument setup.
Usage recommendations: For the best results, experiment with the Swivel Joint positioning to find the "sweet spot" on your instrument. Always engage the high-pass filter when recording instruments with excessive low-end rumble to maintain a clean and professional mix.
