ASTON MICROPHONES SPIRIT MULTI PATTERN MIC

Features Professional Switchable Pattern Microphone Utilising a 1 Gold Evaporated Capsule The Aston Spirit is a high-performance, switchable pattern, microphone utilising a one inch, dual diaphragm, gold evaporated capsule. A switch on the mic body selects from Omni, Cardioid or figure-of-eight polar patterns. It is versatile enough to use with most instruments in addition to main and backing vocals. Its hand-selected capsule is teamed with high-end transformer balanced circuitry using only the highest quality electronic components. Its dual pad option allows it to accommodate very high SPLs while its low cut filter cuts the ultra-lows. The Spirit is designed to deliver a beautifully open sound with sparkling harmonics. This microphone is capable of delivering a stunningly natural and transparent sound with just a subtle hint of flattery, capturing all the detail in the high range but without adding the harshness that some capacitor microphones are prone to.
