How to operate the OCR8:
The OCR8 connects your OC818 microphone to your smart device (Smartphone or Tablet) via
Bluetooth.
Download the App
Download the Austrian Audio App (containing PolarPilot) from the Apple™ App Store™ or the Google
Play™ Store.
Please make sure that your device is running on the latest version of its operating system.
The minimum requirement at the time of the initial release, is iOS™ 11 or Android™ 5. Also, the
device must support BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy also called Bluetooth LE or Bluetooth Smart).
Current mobile devices are commonly released with hardware and software for Bluetooth Low
Energy, and almost all devices running these operating systems will be compatible.
As the App is using Bluetooth, please ensure that Bluetooth is switched on. Some devices may ask
you to allow the Austrian Audio App access to your location information. This information is used by
the Bluetooth protocol only – we are not processing or tracking any kind of personal data.
Preparing the OC818
Switch the pattern selector to ''•'' (= Preset Mode - all the
way to the right)
Power (to) the OCR8
The OCR8 is powered by the phantom power from the OC818, so please make
sure that you are supplying the OC818 according to P48 (48V +/- 4V). Peak
current consumption is below 4 mA (OC818 with OCR8 connected). Almost all
state-of-the-art professional mixing consoles, preamps and audio interfaces
provide enough power, however some battery driven, or older devices may fail
to do so!
You may either connect the OC818 to phantom power first, or plug the OCR8
into the OC818 first. Once you have completed both steps, the OCR8 will
automatically switch into “pairing mode” and the blue LED will flash fast. Now
it is time to open the Austrian Audio App.
Establishing the Bluetooth connection
After you open the app, click on “search for new devices” to connect to the OCR8. Enter the serial
number (please include the “0” digits) that can be found on the sticker of the OCR8. This is the
password to identify that you have the right to connect to this device. (You do not want that nerdy
guy in the 1
st
row to connect to your microphone with his smartphone).
You can now start to work with the App’s PolarPilot, which will give you full wireless control over the
OC818.
Tips for working with PolarPilot
We suggest you name your microphones first, especially if you own more than one (lucky you)!
Polar pattern:
You can change the polar pattern with the slider below the graphic. For small changes, you can also
use the ''-'' or ''+’' buttons. Please note that the microphone needs a few seconds to adapt to the
new pattern, especially if you switch all the way from figure-8 (left) to omni (right) or vice versa (this
gives any sluggish electrons time to catch up). Please also note that if you are using the slider, the
polar pattern will only start to adjust once you have released the slider!
High Pass Filter:
The high pass filter is a powerful tool to reduce unwanted low frequencies, like stage noise, handling,
or your Uncle Albert’s singing.
''0'' means not active
''40''is a high pass 2
nd
order filter at 40 Hz
''80'' is a high pass 2
nd
order filter at 80 Hz
''160'' is a high pass 1
st
order filter from 160 Hz to 80 Hz, and a high pass 2
nd
order filter below 80 Hz.
Pad Switch:
The Pad switch reduces the sensitivity of the microphone, and prevents overloading the microphone
in loud environments.
''0'' means not active
''-10'' means that the microphone is 10 dB less sensitive
''-20'' means that the microphone is 20 dB less sensitive
Override/Overload monitor:
At the bottom of the screen you will see the overload monitor. It will show an angry red bar if the
signal is too loud to be properly picked up by the microphone. In this case, you should use the “-10”
Pad Switch to resolve this issue. This will reduce bias voltage to the capsule and protect the mic’s
internal circuitry from clipping.
Save function:
You can save your favorite settings to easily retrieve them or program them into another OC818.
Please note that this setting is stored locally on your smart device.
Preset Mode:
If you unplug the OCR8, the OC818 will keep the latest pattern settings and store them in the “•” (=
Preset Mode) position. By setting the microphone to this position, you can always retrieve the stored
setting at any time, including Pad and High Pass settings.
Note that the hardware controls for Pad and High Pass on the microphone are overridden in Preset-
Mode and only become active again once you switch to another polar pattern position.
Using the PolarPilot as a Monitor:
If you do not switch the OC818 into the “•” (= Preset Mode) position and connect the OCR8, you can
still use PolarPilot as a monitor to see the pattern, pad and filter settings, as well as watching the
override monitor. Please note that you cannot make any adjustments unless you switch to “•” (=
Preset Mode) on the microphone.
This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.
