[Product Features]

★One year after the release of the best-selling mixing headphones "X1," which achieved the flattest sound in headphone history and thrilled top professionals worldwide, OLLO Audio's closed-back recording headphones are back. OLLO Audio, which has perfected mixing headphones, has reimagined recording headphones that feature a "U-shaped frequency response" pushed further based on "flat response," offering "immersion" that allows you to get more into the music and bring out superior performance, and "isolation" that brings silence to the recording booth. Based on the most mature perspective of the 21st century, more than a quarter of a century later, the "R1" recording headphones not only provide a sound design appropriate for the application, but also possess the appeal of an inspiring item that enhances the value of the studio.


●A GOOD MIX STARTS IN THE RECORDING ROOM
(A great mix starts in the recording room.)

Serious issues you'll face before you even start mixing, such as "takes with lingering clicks" or "takes with lackluster performances," caused by low-occlusion/narrow-frequency recording headphones. We offer a new solution to this costly problem.


●Ambient bleed/music isolation
(Reduces ambient noise intrusion and sound leakage)

The closed-back design prevents sound leakage from the headphones, keeping any recording environment clean.
With a -10dBSPL* noise reduction capability, it reduces external noise by 50%!

*What does -10dB SPL sound insulation performance mean?
A difference of 10 dB SPL is equivalent to doubling the perceived volume. In other words, -10 dB SPL noise reduction cuts the perceived volume of music or noise from the environment that reaches the headphone earcups by half.


●Pilot track/foldback and click isolation
(Isolation of guide track sound/monitor feedback sound and click sound)

When artists require high volume levels for headphone monitoring to feel the groove, it's difficult to block out sound leakage from backing tracks and clicks that get picked up by the recording microphone. The "R1" isolation isolates elements such as clicks and percussion sounds from the microphone as much as possible.


●U-shaped sound for punchy kicks and clear melodies
(A U-shaped sound that delivers punchy kicks and clear melodies)

In reality, while a flat response is essential in mixing sessions, its objectivity can ruin the atmosphere during recording sessions. The "R1" employs a U-shaped frequency response with clear bass and treble that immerses artists and allows them to groove without hesitation. Musicians will leave your studio with perfect takes and smiles on their faces.


●Comfort for long sessions
Comfort for long sessions


The primary element of comfort is ear pads large enough to completely enclose the ears. The swivel and tilt function of the cups is the next most important element, and the self-adjusting headband provides stress-free operation and a seamless fit for any head shape.


●DURABILITY
Robustness against outlaws who visit the studio and don't respect you and your gear.

●DURABLE BY DESIGN
Product design consisting of American walnut, stainless steel, artificial leather, and silicone.

●SERVICEABLE WITH HOME TOOLS
Service parts that can be replaced with household tools and are supplied sustainably for long-term operation.

● Easy Maintenance
R1 consumable parts that are easy to replace and do not require special skills.


●FEATURES
• U-shaped frequency response for a highly immersive experience of the groove during performance • 50% reduction in ambient noise intrusion and sound leakage (-10dBSPL*) • Comfortable for extended wear • Replaceable components to support long-term use

●Main uses: Vocal recording, instrument recording, field recording, podcasts, audio-visual content creation, sound design, etc.
