Mic’ing vocals on stage with the #OD505 🎤 The right mic placement and pattern can make all the difference. Hold the OD505 at a comfortable distance — close enough to capture detail, but far enough to avoid distortion from plosives or very loud singing. Its directional cardioid pattern helps focus on your voice while reducing bleed from instruments or monitors, and the built-in active circuitry ensures you’re heard clearly on even the loudest stages. Whether wired or paired with our OD505 WL1 wireless head, this mic gives you the freedom, clarity, and presence you need to shine live.

🎻 Mic’ing a double bass on stage with the #OC818 Place the mic a short distance in front of the bridge to capture the instrument’s depth and detail. Want more low-end? Shift it slightly toward the F-hole. Use cardioid to focus on the bass and reduce sound from drums or other instruments, or omni to capture the full, natural resonance of the room. Angle the mic to avoid unwanted reflections from nearby instruments. Small adjustments in distance and angle can make a big difference — the OC818 gives you the flexibility to find the perfect balance. #AustrianAudio #MicTips #LiveSound
