The Aston Element Active Moving-coil Studio Mic is a totally new innovation in the field of studio microphones.The Element Project was the first of its kind — hold a voting session
among musicians, engineers, and producers, fine-tuning a microphone's
voicing until the majority is impressed. Aston spent over 18 months
developing the Element, with 15 months dedicated to the Ridyon capsule
design, and three months putting the Element through its paces with
input from the recording community.
Active moving coil is the first of its kind
Aston Microphones explains the Element's Ridyon capsule technology is completely unique, distinct from condenser, dynamic, and ribbon mic capsules. It actually combines the best elements from all three mic classes to create something completely new. The sound of the Element boasts the sensitivity of a condenser, the low-end punch of a dynamic, and the smooth, natural sound of a ribbon. As an active microphone, it does require phantom power, the presence of which is indicated by Element's purple badge.
For the full details on the development and in depth testing against other mics please see the Aston website here.
