    Overview

    Two OC818s. One perfectly matched stereo system, fully equipped for real-world sessions. The Dual Set Plus delivers unmatched precision, depth, and control, from vocals to full ensembles. With dual-output technology and PolarDesigner integration, you don’t just capture sound. You shape it.

    The OC818 Dual Set Plus is built for engineers who rely on precision – where two microphones must behave as one.

    With ultra-tight factory matching, both OC818s deliver consistent response, stable phase, and a stereo image you can trust. Whether you’re recording vocals, piano, drum overheads, or full ensembles, every detail is captured with depth and accuracy.

    What sets this system apart is its dual-output design. Paired with PolarDesigner, it gives you control beyond the recording itself – adjust polar patterns, reduce bleed, and shape your stereo image after the take.

    Capture with precision. Refine with control.

    Two factory-matched OC818 microphones ensure identical response and consistent stereo imaging. OCS8 shockmounts provide stable isolation, while the stereo bar guarantees precise alignment for accurate phase and positioning. OCH8 clips offer a lightweight mounting option when speed matters. OCC8 cables unlock the second output of each microphone – enabling dual-output recording and full PolarDesigner control. OCW8 windscreens help maintain clarity in challenging environments.
