Very natural

Viotti 24.02.2022

I was initially a bit discouraged with the sound but very quickly have fallen in love with this mic. It is very honest and doesn't flatter an instrument but placed well on a quality instrument the sound is perfect. Easily the best sounding condenser mic I've used on a banjo. Variable patterns would be nice but thats very much nitpicking.

Best mic for the price.

Bart_ 27.05.2022

I can't stress enough how good this microphone is. Especially for the price, I don't think you could find anything better sounding.

Clarity of the sound you get is top notch. Recording vocals and acoustic guitar is just a pleasure to do with this mic. Also, this mic is built like a tank, comes with a really nice case too.

If you in a search for a condenser mic in this price range, you can't go wrong with this one. Highly recommend

Crystal Clean, Crisp Vocals

Eminoid 25.02.2023

After months of listening microphones, reading reviews etc. I finally got my oc18 just to record vocals as pure as possible and very satisfied with the result. I prefer oc18 over Neumann tlm103 anytime.

It was a great buy.
