The Aston SPIRIT is a high-performance switchable polar pattern microphone using a 1" sprayed gold capsule. A switch on the body of the mic selects from Omni, Cardioid, or Figure-8 polar patterns. It is versatile enough to be used with most instruments and excels on acoustic guitar and vocals. Its hand-selected capsule is paired with high-end transformer balanced circuitry using only the finest components.
The Spirit is designed to deliver a beautifully open sound with sparkling harmonics. This high-precision microphone delivers natural, transparent recording, capturing all the detail in the treble without adding the harshness that some condenser microphones seem to have.
