Stereo micing—what are your favourite configurations for width and detail? Bonus points if you can name the setup featured here.
Whether it's a spaced pair, X/Y, or something more complicated, the right configuration comes down to the room and what you're trying to capture. There's no one-size-fits-all answer, just the one that suits the moment.
And despite their differences, our INSPIRE and ESSENCE microphones share much of the same DNA including the 1" Gold-Sputtered Mylar capsule that makes them well-suited to be a stereo pair.
The result? A perfectly coherent stereo image, with the added control of switching Transformer / FET output stages on each mic for further tonal shaping.

How does a condenser mic capsule actually work?
The extended frequency response, detailed capture and higher output of condenser microphones have made them a studio essential and yet, the way it actually does this almost seems like black magic...
Let's break it down together.
Arguably the most important element in the tonality of a microphone, we spent a year conducting double-blind listening tests against a panel of industry experts to find the perfect design for our INSPIRE and ESSENCE microphones.
After testing 60+ designs, one capsule emerged victorious as it beat out or at least equalled the best of the competitor (and more expensive) mics in our tests.

Few instruments test a microphone like a sax does — ESSENCE welcomes the challenge.
The dynamic range, high SPL, directionality and harmonic complexity make it a notoriously difficult instrument to capture honestly.
put our ESSENCE microphone through its paces in a recent video, comparing output styles from our patented Transformer/FET output switch on vocals, drums, piano and, in this excerpt, saxophone.
The >140 dBA of internal headroom, -10db pad, 80hz low cut filter and tonal variation via the switchable output stage let ESSENCE handle it with grace and clarity, resulting in the quality capture you hear here.
And now, as part of our Summer Promotion, ESSENCE just got a significant discount. Shop the sale while stocks last via the link in bio.

You may not agree with this, but...
Most mixing problems happen before you even press record.
Arrangement problems. Performance problems. Confidence problems. Fix those first and suddenly everything will start to sound much better.
All you really need is a good mic, placed well and doing its job quietly—that's your foundation.
ESSENCE was built to be that mic. Handmade in Berlin, dependable and genuinely hard to beat at this price — especially right now, with ESSENCE significantly discounted as part of the Aim Audio Summer Promotion.
Beyond that, the rest is up to you... But if you want to make it a little easier, look to ESSENCE to provide the quality capture your project deserves.
