Aston Spirit Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone

Product Description

The Aston Spirit Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone is built like a boutique microphone, using hand-selected capsules, high-end transformers, and custom capacitors. Aston’s signature Wave-Form Mesh Head is a unique design that not only makes the Spirit stand out from other mics, but offers ultimate support of the mic capsule.

The Spirit offers three selectable polar patterns, Cardioid, Figure-8, and Omni-Directional. Spirit works great on a variety of sound sources, but excels on vocals, acoustic instruments, and capturing a room tone. Pair Spirit with other Aston mics, such as the Origin, to get a great Mid-Side setup.

With Spirit, there is no need for a separate windscreen. A mesh-knit pop-filter is built right into the Wave-Form head. It’s custom weave design allows great transparency, and virtually eliminates plosives and unwanted noise. The casing is formed in stainless steel, so it won’t rust with use, and can even be removed and washed.

Another great feature of the Spirit is the custom End Caps, not found on any other microphone of its kind. The End Caps are designed to absorb high amounts of unwanted rumble from the floor, low end from the control room, or an adjacent isolation booth, completely removing the need of a third party shock-mount. The End Cap can be adjusted to fit any type of stand.

Every Aston microphone has a completely unique design on their chassis, which are individually tumbled for up to four hours to give it a tough exterior, and extremely beautiful finish. To top it all off, each microphone is engraved with Aston's brand mantra, ‘The art of performance’.
