A good reflection filter can solve a lot of issues when recording vocals in an untreated room like your bedroom. Aston have announced their new Aston Halo, a reflection filter with some great tech.

Details on the new Aston Halo are minimal, but that shouldn't detract from what we do know. The brains behind the Aston Halo reflection filter have plenty of experience in this field bringing to market excellent refelction filter technology that perhaps hasn't received the kudos it should have done in the past.

Here's what Aston tell us about the new Halo:

In a market awash with differing versions of an ageing design concept, the Aston Halo is a huge leap forward in reflection filter technology.

The Aston Halo uses the latest patented acoustic materials and proprietary moulding techniques, which bring massively improved performance along with designer looks.

Main Features:

Radically improved isolation
360 degree filtering (vertical, not just horizontal plane)
Much bigger surface area (approx. 40% bigger than main competitor, and ridges almost double this again)
More linear absorption
Incredibly lightweight
Proprietary ‘easy-mount’ hardware
