Aston Origin Black Bundle — Origin Microphone with SwiftShield

The Origin Black Bundle pairs Aston's bestselling 1-inch cardioid condenser — finished in a unique dual-layer textured black paint — with the SwiftShield shock mount and pop filter set. A complete vocal recording front end in a single carton, designed to land in the studio ready to track.

Origin, Reframed in Black

Same UK-designed transformerless electronics, same gold-evaporated 1-inch capsule, same signature wave-form mesh head — finished in Aston's deep matte-textured black. The 2 mm laser-cut stainless steel chassis is hand-finished, then engraved with the unit number.

SwiftShield Included

Aston's SwiftShield combines the Swift shock mount (with ShockStar elastic isolation in place of fragile rubber bands) and the Hextec stainless-steel pop shield (with acid-etched hexagonal apertures for plosive control without HF loss). The mount fits any 40 to 60 mm mic and ships ready to drop straight onto a stand.
