ASTON - HALO - PORTABLE REFLECTION FILTER - VERY LIGHT, NO EXTRA WEIGHT ON THE STAND - VERY DISTINCTIVE PURPLE COLOR

Aston Microphones Halo - Reflection filter and portable vocal booth

The award-winning Aston Halo reflection filter is a huge leap forward in reflection filter technology.
The distinctive Aston purple colour was designed to create a more ‘organic-feeling’ space for the performer to work with.

There are several key areas on which Aston focussed on improving currently available technology, most notably for Isolation, absorption, mounting hardware and the general performance as a studio tool for achieving portable room control.

Hi Tech Construction With Patented PET Felt

Halo Shadow is made from a patented PET felt which is one of the most lightweight and efficient, technical acoustic products available on the global market today, making it ideal for use in a reflection filter.

An additional side benefit is that the acoustic felt which makes up most of the sound absorption field, is made from 70% recycled PET plastic bottle material, so this highly technical product is also very environmentally friendly.

The lightweight material design, coupled with beautifully engineered ‘easy-mount’ hardware, means the Halo Shadow is quick and easy to set up, is stable on mic stands and sounds and looks fantastic.

Patented Design, Enhanced Performance

Halo Shadow’s unique design is also patented, it’s much bigger, wraps around top and bottom to a maximum rear depth of almost 100mm to improve room isolation and absorption without dominating the room sound. Its textured and wave-formed surface also helps diffuse direct sound.

The combination of radically improved performance in almost every area of currently available technology, while paying special attention to both the green credentials of our manufacturing (as with our mic packaging which is 100% recyclable and 84% recycled material), and to the creative element that the artist requires in their performance environment to get the best form every take, makes, in our opinion, the very best possible solution for portable room acoustics available today.

Main Features

• Hi Tech construction with patented PET felt
• Patented British architectural design, enhanced performance
• Radically improved Isolation
• Hemispherical ‘360’ filtering (top and bottom - not just horizontally)
• Much bigger surface area and depth of acoustic treatment
• More linear absorption and diffusion
• Incredibly Lightweight 
• Proprietary ‘easy-mount’ hardware

ASTON - HALO SHADOW - PORTABLE REFLECTION FILTER - VERY LIGHT, NO EXTRA WEIGHT ON THE STAND - BLACK COLOR

The award-winning Aston Halo reflection filter is a huge leap forward in reflection filter technology.

 Originally available in the distinctive Aston purple colour (that was designed to create a more ‘organic-feeling’ space for the performer to work with), the new Aston Halo Shadow is now manufactured also in an all black finish (shadow). Same superb performance, but with a new look for those who want a more ‘moody’ space to work in.

ASTON - SWIFTSHIELD - Premium Universal Microphone Shock Mount and Anti-Pop Filter - Sold as a bundle

SwiftShield combines the Aston Swift shock mount and the Aston Shield pop filter into one bundle, to give you the perfect set up for your studio vocal mic.

The Aston Swift shock mount takes microphone mounting to the next level of ease. With 2 quick release spring clips designed to fit a wide range of mics, from 40-60mm diameter, mounting your microphone takes seconds. 

No more rubber bands! 

We have re-conceived the shock system, and as with all our products worked from the ground up on an entirely new design idea. The ‘ShockStar’ suspension eliminates the need for fiddly rubber bands, but offers a high level of elasticity for maximum isolation. As with all Aston products, the use of novel materials and our unique, architectural, approach to design is setting new standards for the industry.

The Shield pop filter itself features a unique, solid stainless steel shield, with precisely acid etched hexagonal filter holes, to give crystal clear vocals, with perfect acoustic performance for plosive (pop) control. It also presents a large surface area and curves around the mic, so vocalist movement is never an issue.

Together with your mic, the Aston SwiftShield set will give you everything you need for vocal mic applications, and really make your set up stand out from the crowd.

Both the Swift and Shield are available as individual items. So whether you need one of the best shocks mounts you can buy, but no pop shield, or if you already own an Aston Shock and want to upgrade it to the SwiftShield, your options are completely open to work the way you want to.

The Aston Shield is also available as a stand-alone gooseneck version for all your mic’ing applications.

Features

• Universal mic mount - fits mics 40 to 60 mm diameter

ASTON - USM - by Rycote -  UNIVERSAL MICROPHONE SHOCK MOUNT FOR STUDIO MICROPHONES, STURDY AND LIGHT.

In an exclusive partnership between Aston Microphones and Rycote, the Aston Microphones USM is a special edition version of the Rycote InVision™ USM Shock Mount.

Making use of Rycote’s patented vibration-resistant Lyre mount, the W-shaped Lyres are placed around a central mounting ring with adjustable fasteners, allowing the USM to accommodate any microphone with a diameter of between 18 and 55 millimetres.

Aston chose Rycote as their partner for shock mounts, because not only are they made in the UK, just like the mics, but they are indisputably the best mounts on the market today.

The Aston Rycote USM updates the concept of the microphone suspension for the 21st century, completely omitting any elasticated parts and using modern materials to create a virtually indestructible shock-mount with a performance that far outstrips that of the humble ’cat’s cradle’ suspension. In controlled tests at the Rycote factory, the USM provided up to twice the isolation of traditional microphone suspension systems.

Finished in Aston colours this universal mount makes the ideal accessory for use with the Origin and Spirit, as well as any other mics in your collection on the approved list.

Main Features

• Universal mic mount – fits any large-diaphragm recording microphone from 18 to 55 mm in diameter
• Offers up to twice the isolation from cable and stand-borne noise of traditional ’cat’s cradle’ elasticated microphone mounts
• Virtually indestructible
• No elasticated parts – never sags or needs rethreading
• Made in the UK
