RYCOTE OM-08 Omnidirectional Condenser Microphone – RYC979005

The Rycote OM-08 is an omnidirectional pencil condenser microphone designed for a range of applications in studio and field recording.

The OM-08 microphones provide a solid low-frequency response with virtually no drop-off at 20Hz. The mics are built on Rycote’s low self-noise preamp design and capsules which offer a consistent sonic signature that mixes well when cut together with other Rycote microphones in the range. The OM-08 mics can be used individually or in matched stereo pairs.

FEATURES
Compact design
Ultra-low noise circuitry
Sophisticated RF shielding
Low power consumption

OM-08
Sharing the same core pre-amplifier electronics, the OM-08 (omnidirectional) benefit the natural omnidirectional nature of the capsule within all the range and there is no back signal reaching the diaphragm. Despite the standard 20Hz frequency response measurement, the OM-08 will capture even an octave lower than 10Hz. Like all the range it has a slight lift of the 5KHz that brings out vocal sibilance and makes for a naturally crisp clear recording

Applications
Commonly used for MS stereo recording ( w/cardioid mic), or in Stereo pair combination to capture ambiences/room tone on location. Can also be used on organs or acoustic instruments as well (strings family).
