Warm Audio - WA-84 (Nickel)
Small-Diaphragm Condenser Microphone
Precise Reproduction of the Industry StandardThe Warm WA-84 is a small diaphragm condenser microphone influenced by classic microphone circuitry. The WA-84 is a fully discrete Class A design that features a CineMag USA transformer, polystyrene and Wima capacitors and a Fairchild FET. Perfect for pro studio, home studio, live, and broadcast applications, this microphone sounds great on a wide range of instruments and sources, such as; acoustic/electric guitars, acoustic/electric bass, drums, piano, strings, brass & woodwind instruments, and multiple of other sources.
The WA-84 has a huge sound considering its small size and uniquely uses a heavy Nickel CineMag transformer in its signal path to warm up and enhance sound sources. Small diaphragm condenser microphones have widely moved to transformer-less technology in recent years for ease of design and a lower-cost manufacturing process. When designing the WA-84, Warm Audio went the extra mile to offer a more boutique design known for its crystal clear, yet smooth, epic sound.
