Description
The Aston Spirit Condenser Microphone is a unique-looking, high-performance large-diaphragm condenser mic with three selectable polar patterns and a 1″ gold-evaporated capsule. Cardioid, omni, and figure-8 patterns, plus a 10/20dB pad and 80Hz highpass filter make this mic an all-around studio and stage workhorse. The build quality is outstanding: Aston has hand-selected the capsule and paired it with a high-end transformer and balanced circuitry employing top-drawer components. The Spirit delivers a true and transparent-sounding rendition of the source, capturing treble detail without a trace of harshness. If you’re after quality Aston Microphones’ Spirit is highly recommended.
