Getting Started

Microphone Types

What's in the box?

Each Ohma microphone package comes with a drawer box, two Ohma 1.21 mm guitar picks, and a black or white microphone clip. The color of the mic clip will correspond to the fabric used inside the microphone. If you bought an extra screen to replace the Ohma logo screen, it can be found underneath the microphone in the box.

Screen sets and custom-branded screens are also available for purchase and come in a separate screen set case along with two additional Ohma guitar picks. Both mic clip colors can be purchased here.

About Ohma Screens

Ohma’s swappable magnetic screens offer an opportunity to further sculpt and customize the sound of your mic in unique ways. To give you an idea of what you can expect from each screen, here is a general overview of their sound and possible use cases. But keep in mind that the way your room and signal chain interacts with these mics will vary greatly. Take this as an inspiration and then have fun experimenting.

Some gentle reminders

Congratulations! You’ve made it to the exciting “disclaimers” and “what-not-to-do” portion of the manual. What you do with your mic is your own business, but here are some things to avoid to ensure your microphone stays in spec, in warranty, and in good condition.

  • Do not plug-in / unplug your mic while phantom power is engaged.
  • Mute any speakers and/or headphones, or mute your mic before swapping screens.
  • Always use caution when the mic is “screenless” to avoid potential damage internally.

Please cover your microphone when not in use. The magnets in the body and ribbon transducer can attract tiny metal particles if stored incorrectly.

If you are a lucky owner of Brass screen set, know that the raw metal will patina over time if not cleaned periodically. The patina that develops on your brass screen set over time may give it a unique vintage look and feel, but if you want to keep the original shine and gleam, just give it some TLC every now and then.
