Review on Aston Origin - Large Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone by Dale Emmel

I have owned a professional studio for over 10 years and have come across the best mics in the business at all price points. When I was hired by an artist from Portugal to record an independent album as a freelancer, I needed a versatile microphone that I could travel with and take with me, as well as acoustic guitars that would provide the basis for songs in a variety of conditions. as well as vocals for vocal arrangements created on the fly before we head into the studio for the main vocals (which are recorded on the much more expensive Soyuz O17). Guess what? All of the vocals and guitars recorded with Origin ended up in the final mixes with amazing results. I dare say that compared to the "Union" and strictly artistically speaking, he didn't lag far behind the desired mood in any respect. The bass switch worked great to reduce road noise like the faint hum of nearby buses. I recommend this mic as a cheap and versatile condenser option for guitars and vocals. It is very stylish and well designed.
