The Aston Origin is a boutique-grade large-diaphragm condenser known for its open, transparent sound and distinctive British engineering. It utilizes a 1-inch gold-evaporated capsule paired with high-end, transformerless circuitry to deliver a natural and intimate recording quality that excels on both vocals and acoustic guitars.

Designed with a signature wave-form spring head, the Origin provides exceptional protection for the capsule while offering a degree of off-axis rejection to keep your recordings focused. The chassis is individually tumbled for four hours to create a rugged, industrial finish that is as durable as it is visually striking.
