SPIRIT BLACK BUNDLE Studio Microphones Aston

The Aston Spirit has our signature wave-form spring head. This unique design not only looks great, but delivers an unprecedented degree of protection for the heart of your microphone, the capsule. The shock resistant wave-form design allows the head of the mic to distort if given a heavy knock, and then return to its normal position, without any damage. It also offers a degree of off-axis rejection, helping to eliminate unwanted artefacts from your recordings

Aston’s vocal condenser microphones have an exclusive mesh-knit pop filter built into the wave-form head. The random weave allows sound to pass while drastically eliminating unwanted plosives at source. It also shields against multiple wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation making our microphones ideal in critically sensitive electronic applications. This completely encapsulating, single piece, mesh cage is formed in stainless steel, so won’t rust with use, and can even be removed and washed.

Yet another unique design element of the Aston Spirit is the use of custom moulded end caps with integrated XLR and universal stand thread adaptor. Because the internal shock absorption system is so good, you can mount the microphone directly to a stand via this built in thread and interchangeable thread adapter with outstandingly low handling noise. The design also makes Aston microphones extremely easy to repair and maintain.

The limited edition Spirit features a unique, beautiful and hard-wearing black texxtured finish on a 2mm solid stainless steel chassis. To perfect the look, each microphone is separately engraved with its legends, and our brand mantra… ‘The Art of Audio’

• A superbly balanced mix of discrete and integrated electronic circuitry

• Harmonised circuit stage arrangement for easy integration from phantom power input circuitry to the capsule voltage bias

• Novel non-linear voltage/current source rectification to provide controlled amplification and smooth/ clear audio output

We have put our hearts and minds into creating the most beautiful performance pieces possible with each Aston product. When it comes to packaging we believe simplicity is king. Protective, re-useable, environmentally sensible packaging that doesn’t cost the earth.
