Description

Clean Tone. Mean Impact.

Meet the  OC-B6  –  the world’s first   large-diaphragm condenser kick drum microphone .

Handcrafted in Vienna and built to survive  brutal sound pressure levels beyond 170 dB , the OC-B6 captures the full force of your kick with absolute clarity and zero compromise.

No pre-EQ. No hype. No distortion. 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.

The first of its kind. Built to hit harder.

One Kick. Every Position. Total Control.

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

Its  220° swivel head  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.

Inside. Outside. At the port. Always right.

Built Loud. Built Smart. Built Different.

The OC-B6 is engineered without shortcuts. Its  discrete electronics  deliver lightning-fast transient response and extreme headroom – no chips, no bottlenecks, no loss of information. A precisely tuned  25 Hz subsonic filter  removes inaudible rumble and infrasound, preserving headroom where it matters most.

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.

No gimmicks. Just performance.

CKR6-B. Condenser Power Unleashed.

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

By doubling the diaphragm-to-electrode distance and lowering the resonance frequency, the CKR6-B achieves  virtually unlimited headroom  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.

Endless headroom. Zero coloration.
