Austrian Audio - Large-Diaphragm Condenser Bass Drum Microphone

<p><strong>Clean Tone. Mean Impact.</strong></p>

<p>Meet the <strong>OC-B6</strong> – <strong>the world’s first</strong> <strong>large-diaphragm condenser kick drum microphone</strong>.<br /> Handcrafted in Vienna and built to survive <strong>brutal sound pressure levels beyond 170 dB</strong>, the OC-B6 captures the full force of your kick with absolute clarity and zero compromise.</p>

<p><strong>No pre-EQ. No hype. No distortion</strong>. Just pure, unfiltered kick drum tone – from deep vintage boom to razor-sharp modern attack. Shape it your way. This is condenser detail where no condenser has dared to go before.</p>

<p><strong>The first of its kind. Built to hit harder.</strong></p>

<p><strong>One Kick. Every Position. Total Control.</strong></p>

<p>The OC-B6 delivers consistent, uncompromising sound from <strong>every classic kick-mic position</strong> – inside the shell, right at the port, or outside the drum. Unlike conventional kick microphones, it doesn’t lock you into a single sound.</p>

<p>Its <strong>220° swivel head</strong> makes placement fast and precise, even in tight setups, while the ultra-compact and rugged design performs flawlessly on stage and in the studio. One microphone. Every approach. Every genre. No swaps. No second guesses.</p>

<p><strong>Inside. Outside. At the port. Always right.</strong></p>

<p><strong>Built Loud. Built Smart. Built Different.</strong></p>

<p>The OC-B6 is engineered without shortcuts. Its <strong>discrete electronics</strong> deliver lightning-fast transient response and extreme headroom – no chips, no bottlenecks, no loss of information. A precisely tuned <strong>25 Hz subsonic filter</strong> removes inaudible rumble and infrasound, preserving headroom where it matters most.<br /> The integrated stand thread eliminates clips entirely, making setup faster, cleaner, and more reliable – night after night. This is professional kick-drum engineering, stripped down to what truly matters.</p>

<p><strong>No gimmicks. Just performance.</strong></p>

<p><strong>CKR6-B. Condenser Power Unleashed.</strong></p>

<p>At the heart of the OC-B6 is the <strong>CKR6-B</strong> – a specially developed 1” large-diaphragm true condenser capsule, evolved from Austrian Audio’s ceramic capsule technology and re-engineered for extreme SPL.</p>

<p>By doubling the diaphragm-to-electrode distance and lowering the resonance frequency, the CKR6-B achieves <strong>virtually unlimited headroom</strong> while subtly shaping the low-frequency response for kick drum perfection. The result: a condenser capsule that stays clean, stable, and musical – even at levels that destroy ordinary microphones.</p>

<p><strong>Endless headroom. Zero coloration.</strong></p>
