On this still night, as we worked on the engineering for our new recording equipment, something beautiful was created. The studio is transformed every night by blue lights, into a galaxy of stars filled with the beautiful melodies from Leah's Haynes flute. We hope the simple tools used in this recording can encourage others to take the leap with a small investment into very capable and cost effective studio equipment. "The Aston Origin is a high-performance cardioid condenser microphone utilising a one inch (1″) gold evaporated capsule. It's versatile enough to use with any instrument and, for singer-songwriters, excels on acoustic guitar and vocals." What we found after trying a number of other microphones was their inability to capture the nuanced resonance of the flute. Aston Origin delivered on quality and price in a way that allows us to focus on the music rather than chasing a "sound".
