Aston Microphones Spirit Stereo Bundle

A classic Aston, offered here in a "studio" stereo configuration

The Spirit is Aston's flagship microphone in the large-diaphragm condenser family: an open, detailed, and natural sound designed to integrate easily into a modern mix. This "Stereo" bundle emphasizes paired recording, with an accessory set designed to immediately exploit the full potential of the Spirit on acoustic sources, ambiences, and demanding multitrack recordings.

Who is this bundle for, and in which applications does it make a difference?

This pack is aimed at demanding home studios, project studios, and sound engineers seeking a versatile solution for piano, acoustic guitars, drum overheads, choirs, strings, or "room" recordings. Thanks to the 3 polar patterns, you can adjust stereo width, depth, and ambiance level, whether you want a precise image (cardioid), a more enveloping sound (omni), or a very "realistic" capture like Blumlein (figure-eight).

Key features: precision, control, and ultra-efficient setup

Multi-pattern for custom stereo

The polar pattern selector offers a wide range of placements and stereo techniques. In practice, it guarantees quickly finding the right balance between attack, width, and room reverb without changing microphones.

Pads and high-pass filter: clean recording from the start

The -10 dB and -20 dB pads secure recordings on high-level sources (brass, percussion, miked amps, overheads), while the 80 Hz high-pass filter helps reduce vibrations, mic stand noise, and proximity effect.

SwiftShield and stereo bar: time-saving, better isolation

The SwiftShields combine an effective suspension and a robust pop filter to limit mechanical noise and plosives. The included stereo bar facilitates alignment, angle, and capsule spacing for a coherent and reproducible stereo image session after session.
