Austrian Audio OD505 Microphone


The Best of Two Worlds

The OD505 Active Dynamic Vocal Microphone is an exceptional microphone that is designed with the stage in mind, but is also well-suited for studio applications. This microphone is uncompromisingly robust, combining the advantages of a dynamic microphone with the tonal finesse of a condenser microphone.

Whether you're a singer, podcaster, or radio broadcaster, the OD505 is the ideal choice for you. Its natural sound makes it easy to shape and highlight a vocalist's strengths, while its versatility allows it to be used in a variety of settings.

With Austrian Audio's proprietary Open Acoustics Technology, the OD505 delivers a natural and resonance-free sound that is not coloured or distorted. This technology ensures that your audio recordings are pristine and clear, making it perfect for capturing the nuances of a vocal performance.

 

Making Passion Heard

The dynamic capsule is the heart of the OD505.

The OD505 is equipped with an active front capsule that requires 48V phantom power and has a sensitivity of 4.4 mV / Pa, similar to a condenser microphone. The active circuitry ensures that the microphone's sound is consistent, regardless of the preamplifier's internal resistance or the length of the connecting cables. Additionally, the OD505 features a passive lower capsule that is polarity-rotated to reduce unwanted handling noise, especially at lower frequencies.

Another proprietary development by Austrian Audio, the 3D Pop Noise Diffuser, is also included in the OD505. This filter is specially designed for the OD505 and effectively minimizes the impact of plosives, ensuring that your recordings are clear and natural.

With the OD505, you can expect exceptional performance and reliability. Its active front capsule, coupled with the passive lower capsule, ensures that your recordings are free of unwanted noise and distortion. Additionally, the 3D Pop Noise Diffuser provides a superior recording experience, making it an excellent choice for those seeking high-quality vocal recordings.
