The Famous Gold Watch and Aim Audio
Nestled in a quiet artist community (the European Creative Centre) on the edge of the city, the Famous Gold Watch is a recording, mixing, filming, production and writing studio in Berlin. Built on a philosophy of nurturing the independent music community, the Famous Gold Watch has become a pilar of the local scene.
In a space where the vibe is everything and creativity flows freely, getting a good capture of an artist’s performance is paramount—which is exactly where our microphones come in. Being a Berlin born and raised brand ourselves, we thought it fitting to team up with the Famous Gold Watch to help bring their artists’ most ambitious visions to life in stunning clarity.
In-house engineer Bob Spencer had this to say about INSPIRE.

In-house engineer Bob Spencer had this to say about INSPIRE.
Aim INSPIRE mics quickly became one of my go to’s for a lot of applications like drum overheads, drum rooms, pianos, and acoustic guitars…
…They’re a vital part of my decca tree setup for string and horn sections. I would expect to pay twice as much for mics that sound like this.
With in-house engineer Bob Spencer at the helm, armed with our INSPIRE and ESSENCE microphones, check out these live performances filmed in their “Rabbit Hole” room, featuring some of Berlin’s best up and coming artists.
Commenting on INSPIRE, Famous Gold Watch co-founder Cameron James Laing said:
“The Aim Audio Inspire has been a revelation not only for its clarity and versatility but also for its practicality…
…They’re working wonders on acoustic guitars, string sections and a host of other instruments and are exceptional value; a worthy addition to any studio arsenal.”
