The OD303 Dynamic Vocal Microphone is designed to capture vocals with clarity and precision. It features Austrian Audio’s proprietary Open Acoustics Technology, which ensures a pristine, natural, and resonance-free sound without any coloration. The microphone utilizes the ODC50 dual capsule, mounted as free-standing as possible, to minimize contact points and eliminate unwanted reflections.
The microphone has a supercardioid polar pattern, optimized for a wide frequency band, and offers excellent feedback stability. It is specially designed to maintain consistent sound quality even when held close to the head-grille. The ODC50 dual capsule reduces handling noise and stage vibrations at low frequencies, providing a clean and professional audio experience. Additionally, the microphone is equipped with a proprietary 3D Pop Noise Diffuser to minimize noise caused by explosive sounds.

Connect the OD303 Dynamic Vocal Microphone to a compatible audio device or mixer using an XLR cable.
Position the microphone in front of the vocalist, ensuring that the head-grille is facing the sound source.
Adjust the microphone’s angle and distance according to the desired sound pickup. Experiment with different positions to achieve optimal results.
For best performance, hold the microphone close to the head-grille without touching it to maintain consistent sound quality.
Use the supercardioid polar pattern of the microphone to reduce unwanted background noise and improve feedback stability.
Take advantage of the ODC50 dual capsule technology to minimize handling noise and stage vibrations, particularly at low frequencies.
If explosive sounds such as T and P are causing noise issues, activate the proprietary 3D Pop Noise Diffuser to reduce the impact.
After usage, store the OD303 Dynamic Vocal Microphone in a safe and dry place to protect it from damage.

Note : Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions on maintenance, troubleshooting, and additional features.

Dynamic Vocal Microphone

Maximum performance at an attractive price.
Looking for the best possible sound for the stage? You’ll find it with the OD303, the latest dynamic vocal microphone from Austrian Audio.
Austrian Audio has designed a stage microphone that concentrates on the absolute essentials: the best sound for your voice!
The well-balanced, open, but at the same time powerful sound is unparalleled at this price point.
With its rugged construction, the OD303 will withstand daily use in the rehearsal room and the rigors of a hard touring life without problem. The die-cast housing is almost indestructible, and the microphone fits perfectly in the hand.

Featuring Austrian Audio’s proprietary Open Acoustics Technology, the ODC50 dual capsule of the OD303 is mounted as free-standing as possible.
By reducing the contact points of the capsule and the mounting, as well as eliminating unwanted reflections that can be caused by the housing, the Open Acoustics design results in a pristine, natural and resonance-free sound without any colouring.

The OD303 also follows the renowned Open Acoustic technology of Austrian Audio which provides an optimally-shaped supercardioid polar pattern across a wide frequency band with excellent feedback stability. Also, the widely-used technique of holding the microphone close to the head-grille does not affect or change to the sound. FOH sound engineers will greatly appreciate this feature!
Equipped with the Austrian Audio ODC50 dual capsule – unique at this price – handling noise and stage vibrations at low frequencies are significantly reduced. In addition, the proprietary 3D Pop Noise Diffuser, developed by Austrian Audio, reduces noise caused by explosive sounds such as “T” and “P” to a minimum.
