Microphones for Voiceover – Which Ones Really Deliver? | The Pro Audio Suite

This week, it's all about the front end — microphones for voiceover. George recently ran a live webinar comparing a wide range of mics from the Audio-Technica AT875R to the mighty Austrian Audio OC818, and we’re diving deep into the results. From self-noise to low-end roll-off, polar patterns to punchy midrange, we break down what makes a great mic for VO, including: 🎧 Why the AT875R punches above its weight 🎙️ The OC818 and CC8 — why Robbo and AP love them 💡 What makes the Mojave M50 a hidden gem 💥 The big-name mics like the 416, U67 and beyond 🔬 How capsule design and manufacturing history still matter 📦 The surprising pros and cons of handheld condensers 🎤 And whether a kick drum mic could actually work for voice! If you’ve ever wondered what mic is “the one” for VO, this is the episode for you. A big shout out to our sponsors, Austrian Audio and Tri Booth.
