Product Description

Testimonials:

"We used a lot of Warm gear to help bring the Still Woozy record to life. We used the WA-14 for the piano tracks and the WA-412 for all of the synths. The WA-412 is truly one of the best mic pres I've used. It keeps up with all of the bigger names out there.Lars Stalfors - (Cold War Kids, Matt & Kim, Alice Glass, The Mars Volta, Still Woozy)

"While recording in Castle Röhrsdorf in Dresden, Germany, I used a set of WA-14 mics on the top of the toms. I loved how snappy the toms were! Warm Audio consistently manufactures great rack audio gear and microphones at a fraction of the price of similar models.Sylvia Massy - (SYSTEM OF A DOWN, RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, SMASHING PUMPKINS, TOM PETTY, JOHNNY CASH)

We used a pair of WA-14s on the toms. They replaced the josephson e22s we’ve used on our toms for years. They are just more open and a little brighter which works well with my (Zach here) toms being tuned usually pretty low. Jimmy Eat World

Classic and Versatile Design:

You can attain the classic C414 mic sound with the WA-14. This sought-after mic had many iterations, the most desirable version having the all-brass CK12 capsule.

Warm Audio have tried to recreate this vintage-inspired construction with their “Lens Kondensator” LK-12-B-60V capsule, based off the renowned CK12 capsule design. It also has a custom premium CineMag USA transformer, and this combination of components lets you record a range of instruments with genuine and convincing old-school sonics.

You can capture anything from aggressive or soft vocals, raucous to gently-picked guitars, or punished percussion. Use the WA-14 as your perfect go-to mic in your studio, serving many purposes.

High-Quality Components:

A raft of high-quality components have been used in the WA-14’s design, giving you a high-spec microphone at a fraction of the price of the classic it’s based off.

The WA-14 features a boutique-style transformer custom wound by CineMag USA, as well as polystyrene, tantalum and WIMA capacitors. This means you get a clean, unaffected signal with low noise and little to no artefacts in your waveform. So, you can capture a clear and pure signal that is true to the original sound - perfect!
