YOOO!! This was such a great video. I'm pretty sure I'll go with this one.. it's 333€ nowadays where I live, Finland. I've been back and forth with either at4040 and this one, and now at the midnight I listened also to the sweetwater mic tests/reviews of both and I have to say this is the one for me. I feel like it gets my spirit flowing in some type of a different vivid way. Whereas AT4040 feels nothing like my vibe, even tho it sounds good for sure. I think when making final decisions about buying stuff like this it's a must to go with the intuition. Your own self is the only reliable factor when choosing the right microphone for your own needs. ;) I hope that I don't change my mind coz I hate the over analyzing this kinda stuff.. hehh also the Spirit just looks so fantastic to my eyes. Thanks for the vid!
Bro, one of the best review's I'v ever seen! Please help me out, do u have a lot of panels in room? not sure if I need them , if many or simple like 3 arround..Kinda new on mic business. Im about to buy Spirit, maybe go for rode arm...do u think any mic stand will hang that mic? Any pop filter can work right? Ty, keep up the good work
Thank you. I have 12 of them, then my booth has acoustic wedge foam covering the walls. Def helps a lot. When you mix your vocals, what ever room sound you have is just gonna get amplified when you mix it...Plus when your mixing if your room is all echoey then your gonna be hearing sounds that aren’t actually in your mix...Couldn’t really tell you how much you neeed, but I can say that the more the better...try to deaden that reverb. Any pop filter will work. I suggest one with a longer arm..I got a new one recently and the arm was way to short, barely reaches the mic, make sure it’s long enough...No doubt!
@@KelliMusic Well ty! it rly helped! I will try to find a good tall mic stand. I asked about the ''3arround'' because my monitor is like surrounded by Polyurethane(not sure if it is poly) walls so I was thinking like if I get mic close to it, maybe the 3 walls surrounded by acoustic panels shall do the work, but I gotta try ahah. Can u tell me which acoustic pannels did u pick? Trying not to go for expensive panels
Any regular boom stand should work...I actually built my panels. I have a video on it - th-cam.com/video/Xrkj8NAMi50/w-d-xo.html ...pretty simple, will save you lots of money & very effective...then for my booth I just ordered some acoustic foam off amazon. Link in description 🤘
what mic do you recommend for someone like myself who has lots of energy and loudness on the mic? (for rap/hiphop/rnb) Im cool with spending around $250-500.
would you mind telling me the exact plugins you used in ur vocal chain (for the part at 3:13)? not only the type of plugin, i mean their names. it's a great mix man 🤙 shout outs from germany
Never tried the baby bottle but ive heard great things about it. The artist "Russ" recorded his whole career up till 2017 on that microphone. "What they want" "missin you crazy" etc...
Glad you replied bro 💪🏼 appreciate you also if you could check me out too give me a chance fr, also what mic you think is better the blue bird or Aston I know you tried both
@@LorLoe No problem. Personally I love the bluebird its one of my main mics, its bright & has a modern crisp sound to it. I mostly use it for melodic stuff. If your just rapping, dropping bars and being more aggressive it can get a little harsh tho.
@@tuneunleashed bro you right, I'm sorry. I just read my comment and I sound like a total douchebag. Did not meant to be tho. I guess what I was tryna say is that other mics cost way more and therefore it's not that expensive in comparison. But yea, still 400.
@@glueh it’s all good man at the end of the day I got the mic and it’s dope! Especially for modern Hip Hop and R&B it cuts through the mix. It was a tough decision between this or the AT4040
It’s definitely is better in general lol I tried the spirit and I was quite disappointed… it should be only priced half of what it cost. Don’t believe the hype, it was to grab beginners…. Have you seen their recent release of a microphone? They hyped it up to be amazing and yet it seriously is shit ass
I’m stuck between the Spirit and the AT4040 and you drop this video just in time lol even tho you prefer the 4040 I feel like the spirit sounds more transparent 🤔
i made a complete fool of myself for commenting with such haughty intellectual pride .....the polarity of my core capsule has too many patterns and sometimes distorts my field of perception
That probably sounds like a dumb question but I'm new to mics. It will mainly be used for rap vocals on an MPC X which basically has a built in audio interface with gain and phantom power.
U kinda following trendy talk in this vid, like saying they put money into the mic? Zero finish? Looks like a trash can ugly as hell tbh compare it to the beautiful 4040.. Also it sounds super thin and weak the mic sucks but good mixing cool vid
All I was saying is that nothing comes in the box so the money must of went into the mic? Wasn't that deep lol. Although when it comes to audio, like I said...I prefer the AT4040.
Yeah but why say it when u can clearly see it didnt.. Trendy talk like callin your headphones "my daily drivers" just sayin dumb stuff youve heard before.. I like your vids but keep things real no money went into that mic. Scrap it n compare the sm7b to the 4040 with personal opinions pls. Ps the singer u got will blow too dope not too
@@pracmwo3125 This is my opinion...I said what I felt. I never called my headphones daily drivers. Sorry you dont like the microphone...this is my opinion not yours.
In RAW the sound has already found its place in the mix! This is the best demo of your channel.
That mic sounds so natural! Not overly hyped. Nice and warm. Great video and nice skills man!
Yooooo that intro sounded aweeeesome, already convinced to buy
You can do a mix review on how you get them vocals clear to sit in the song like that you did with your track and bros 👌👀
This guy is amazing why he isnt famous?
You don’t need to be famous to proof you have an extraordinary talent
Because like everyone else he uses auto tune
Because talent is 10-20% of the battle. The other 80-90% is business and strategic planning.
I enjoy watching this! I am thinking of buying this exact mic so I am looking around what people are saying!
audiotestkitchen.com dude. It lets you compare 300 different mics
I find it too “crispy” on the high end for bright & high voices like mine 😭
But it sounds amazing here
Now this is a mic review video! great job bro.

As for me Aston Spirit is the best mic for this price range. Sounds killer and also has a lot of options. Great omni-purpose mic. Love it!
Did you use the -10db or high pass filter recording this?
your studio looks lit af. neat dude
Thank you
Aye bro, I have a high pitched rapping voice like you as well. Is the at4040 still a better option?
ما هو الافضل ؟
Aston or rod nt1a
what song is?? min 4:31 :0
Hey bro, it’s called “Money”. It’s coming out this month 🙂
just got mine but i’m experiencing high frequency noise when i turn up the pre amp
Bro, what settings should I put the mic on for the best quality (recording verses)? I can't find anything on it
what mic do you recommend for someone like myself who has lots of energy and loudness on the mic? (for rap/hiphop/rnb) Im cool with spending around $250-500.
what do u think between this mic vs blue bird sl and warm audio 47 mostly for voice singing im in a 400dollars range thxxxx
Awsome Video Man!! Ay what voice affects did you use for Jared’s singing?
Eq, compressor, tuning, reverb & some delaaay
Nice work all around guys!
would you mind telling me the exact plugins you used in ur vocal chain (for the part at 3:13)? not only the type of plugin, i mean their names. it's a great mix man 🤙 shout outs from germany
Have lots of mixing tutorials on the channel. Feel free to check them out.
1:51 but isn't a Low Pass Filter the same as a High Cut? meaning you can remove the higher frequencies?
I think he meant to say high pass
Great video brother! What song was that the guy with guitar was singing? Sounds awesome.
Which mic is better? Blue baby bottle mic or this mic the Aston?
Never tried the baby bottle but ive heard great things about it. The artist "Russ" recorded his whole career up till 2017 on that microphone. "What they want" "missin you crazy" etc...

DAWG THIS IS SICK THAT SINGING PART I RESTARTED IT MANY TIMES PUT IT ON LOOP!!!! but sick microphone expensive but it's dope
Lordtunes Music Thanks bro! If you like the music give me s follow on insta or Spotify. I’ve got s new track coming out Friday!
Bro, that mic cost bout 400, thats not too much
@@glueh You know people have lives right? Not everybody can afford 400$ especially when it comes to microphones

Question how does your mic sound warm and i have the same and it sounds like air ?/????/?? please help me bro
I'd say crank some gain trough the mic. Tube pre amp won't hurt
@@Edizonstudio deff worked
Do you use phantom power for this mic with a focusrite?
Yes
@@KelliMusic okay thank you
I'm trying to start rap. What's the basic and useful things I need
Mic, headphones, mic stand, 48v interface, recording program. Good to go.
homie sound like the weekend
Hello,
I wanted to know what was your microphone stand? Have a good day
What interface are you running the mix was crazy 🔥🤕
Never mind I see the description
But fr you guys are fire 🔥
What mic stand are you using
It has a low cut filter, this it the opposite of a low cut ;)
nice review regardless
Do I need to buy the mic cords cables?
Yo,
I got a rack to spend on a mic. What should I get?
Oh love it sounds like more the ali gaite am try buying it
It still sounds better then other mics: Rode's, Audiotechnica's.
Hey I just checked out your soundcloud, the quality of your songs are really good. I wish you further success, where can I reach out to you?
I came here to see if I was tripping about my plosives without the pop filter and I’m not lol. Definitely need one. Great review
What are your effects settings
@MixedByKelli is that track officially released?? I wanna bump it
Baldini_Houdini not yet
@@KelliMusic is it out now??
@@JayyReezy th-cam.com/video/ZIHS0tGDoPs/w-d-xo.html
HIGH PASS FILTER*** WHICH MEANS TO CUT OUT THE LOWS AND LETTING THE HIGH PASS!!!!******
could you use this for live as well ,nice vid ,bro
So you can most definitely yell in this mic and not have too worry about it being distorted and being all messed up?
Definitely. Even has a gain switch, more versatility for loud & soft noises.
@@KelliMusic nniiiceeeee. Yeah ima rapper and I need too get this mic cus I got alot of agression too let out 🔥💯💪😎thanks brobro.
@@officialyungtwizted3858 haha gotcha
A rode "NT1" black mic would be a good review
What do you think about the AT4050?
Sucks lol well just for vocals it isn’t that great, too many harsh frequencies bouncing around otherwise it’s decent I’d say
Did he say audio technica 4040 is better for him?
It’s definitely is better in general lol I tried the spirit and I was quite disappointed… it should be only priced half of what it cost. Don’t believe the hype, it was to grab beginners…. Have you seen their recent release of a microphone? They hyped it up to be amazing and yet it seriously is shit ass
Can you yell into this mic without it being distorted?
Definitely, it has a gain switch on it. Just set that switch at -10 or -20db & your good to go.
Just make sure you interface gain isnt cranked 😂
@@KelliMusic lmao. Hahah. Check out my work with the at2020 bro tell what u think if my vocals sound.
@@KelliMusic th-cam.com/video/iI9iMN96HGo/w-d-xo.html
Been making money. Should be a full song. Damm
Im pretty sure its dropping soon actually.
@@KelliMusic you guys sound good on the Aston Spirit I may get one this week and try it out.
I’m stuck between the Spirit and the AT4040 and you drop this video just in time lol even tho you prefer the 4040 I feel like the spirit sounds more transparent 🤔
I find the Aston smoother, but I like the detail the at4040 gives up top...also it was easier to mix with.
What Is your favorite mic ? I have at2020 and Focusrite 2i2 , lucky and Blesa for you bro 🔥
At the moment. I’m loving the at4040.
Looking at grabbing the Shure sm7b. I’ve heard it’s a beast.
hahahaha every mic i search for .. you made a video.
Very helpfull.. youre voice editing is amazing
I just bought it. Is this a good mic for rapping?
Yep
I think no. high sound very very bright. you can use many de-esser plugin. if you a mix master, aston is a good mic.
If I scream into my mic can it break?
You can scream into the mic
You should have 2 million subs :) ;(
Thanks. Maybe one day 😅
Not enough audio comparisons
Bro, you look like Zabdiel de Jesús.
(CNCO)
i made a complete fool of myself for commenting with such haughty intellectual pride .....the polarity of my core capsule has too many patterns and sometimes distorts my field of perception
You doin to much
i thing that presonus kill all effect of that mic :\
