Leah Connolly ~ cover ~ Billie Eilish "Ocean Eyes" for Flute
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".
