Thanks to its precision and neutrality, users can shape the final result through drum choice, microphone placement inside or outside the drum, and any desired signal processing. Its exceptionally stable and clean performance—regardless of placement—opens the door to new sonic possibilities for bass drums.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_0\"\u003eDESIGNED FOR BASS DRUM\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe OC-B6 sounds great both inside and outside the bass drum. Whether placed just inches from the beater, near the resonant head, or positioned in front of the drum, it delivers outstanding sonic results. Ideal for studio work where fidelity and accuracy are essential, the OC-B6 also brings a new standard to live bass drum miking by offering the richness of a large-diaphragm condenser in a rugged, stage-ready package—without the fragility typically associated with LDCs. It excels across all musical genres and with any type of bass drum.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_1\"\u003eCOMPACT AND DURABLE\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eDespite housing a large-diaphragm capsule, the OC-B6 remains extremely compact and highly practical. Its rugged construction ensures durability and reliability even in the most demanding live environments—something rare for microphones of this type. Based on Austrian Audio’s original swivel joint design (introduced with OD5 and OC7) the OC-B6 offers 220° rotation for maximum flexibility and accuracy in miking up any bass drum.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3 id=\"toc_2\"\u003eEXTREME SPL HANDLING\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe OC-B6 can handle virtually unlimited maximum SPL - performance unmatched by any other condenser microphone on the market. The “B” version of the CKR6 capsule doubles the distance between diaphragm and electrode and features a lower-tuned resonance frequency. The result is enormous headroom and a subtly refined frequency response.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Austrian Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44451342057575,"sku":"500231","price":599.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/austrian-audio-oc-b6_500231_1.jpg?v=1787096866","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.com\/products\/austrian-audio-oc-b6-bass-drum-microphone","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
