Manual and Specifications
First things first, we strongly recommend you take a quick minute and register your microphone. All Ohma microphones come with a 1 (one) year limited warranty for the original owner, starting from the date of the purchase. To extend your warranty to two years, please register your product online via our registration page.
The Ohma Condenser microphone features our signature capsule (“The Debby”) and a vintage Cinemag transformer for extra character. It is an edge-terminated construction delivering a timeless sound with detail and clarity.
The Ohma Ribbon microphone combines classic ribbon mic characteristics with added clarity and definition, providing smooth, and forgiving transients without sacrificing detail. It requires +48v phantom power and is compatible with all types of recording setups.
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.
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.
Ohma screens let you swiftly explore and customize your sound with creative finesse. Think of them each as different colors, shades, and textures on your artist’s palette; tools in a creative toolbox of sound-shaping and problem-solving.
With Ohma screens, the freedom to create is yours for the taking. Swap the front and back screens freely to alter the overall response and tonality of your mic and choose whatever screen suits your needs.
We’ve designed the Ohma Ribbon and Ohma Condenser to have a strong and pleasing character in their natural state — giving you a perfect starting point to shape your own sound.

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.
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.
Domestic shipping can take up to 5 business days.
Foreign shipping could take up to 14 business days.
