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

 

Rycote OM-08 Omni-Directional Condenser Microphone – Stereo Pair

The OM-08 microphones provide 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.
