[Revival of Popular Studio Dynamics] The WA-19 uniquely combines dynamic mic functionality and condenser-like clarity to faithfully recreate the most popular studio and live dynamics of the 1960s.
[Dynamic Features/Condenser-like Character] The WA-19 features a hand-assembled dynamic cardioid humbucking capsule that blends dynamic noise rejection and proximity effect reduction while delivering a crisper, airier top end with richer detail than most studio dynamics.
[Control Boom & Bass] The WA-19 is equipped with a variable acoustic high-pass filter ring that can cut up to 10dB at 50Hz, perfect for tightening tone and adding midrange emphasis without the electronic phase shift that occurs with preamp high-pass filters. Additionally, ventilation slots on the side of the WA-19 body reduce proximity effect and eliminate boomy bass caused by placing the microphone close to loud sound sources.
[Sound Great Anywhere] The WA-19's thin pencil-style body design makes it easy to position the microphone in crowded studio or live performance situations, whether you're recording acoustic guitar and vocals simultaneously, tracking an entire band, or mic'ing a full drum kit. The WA-19 has a dynamic humbucking coil that minimizes noise, especially in the bass/bass midrange, making it easy to grab tight snare bottom tones without harsh kick drum bleed.
HAND TESTED IN AUSTIN, TEXAS: Like all Warm Audio gear, the WA-19 is meticulously hand tested and inspected in Austin, Texas, USA by trained technicians with a passion for music production.
Bringing back one of the most popular studio and live dynamic microphones of the 1960s, the WA-19 blends critical off-axis rejection, proximity effect reduction, and dynamic rugged metal construction with studio-worthy condenser tone-like clarity and rich detail. Acoustic high-pass filtering can cut up to 10dB at 50Hz, removing unwanted low frequencies. The WA-19 is perfect for capturing detail in cymbals/overheads, acoustic guitars, studio & live vocals, snare bottoms, guitar cabs, and more. Reviving the tone and features of the original, the WA-19 delivers the ideal balance of dynamic features and condenser-like character, making it a dynamic studio mic that you'll want to experiment with almost anything in the studio or live.
