Warm Audio WA-87 R2 Large Diaphragm Condenser Features
-
Recording Capabilities: Just like the vintage microphone, the WA-87 R2 excels at recording virtually anything. Three polar patterns (Cardioid, Omni, and Figure 8) make sure you’re covered for a wide variety of applications, and an 80Hz high pass filter reduces low-frequency rumble if needed
-
Features: The WA-87 R2 uses a custom-wound Cinemag USA output transformer like the original WA-87 did, with the new version providing a slightly increased output level and improved frequency response
-
Sound and Appearance: The WA-87 R2 is now encased in a heavier, stronger, and larger nickel-plated brass body and the new rounded head basket shape adds additional space around the capsule for a more pleasing sonic signature
-
Ideal Usage: The WA-87 R2 works brilliantly on vocals, drum overheads, guitars, piano, auxiliary percussion, brass, strings, and more. Not only that, it’s the same price as the original WA-87, so you can afford to have several in your mic locker
-
Uniqueness: It uses the same capsule the WA-87 uses, which was designed to the exact specifications of the ones found in the vintage mics
