Description
Bringing Back a Studio and Stage Favorite The WA-19 is a faithful recreation of one of the most popular dynamic studio and live microphones of the 1960s. Like the original beloved by live and studio engineers, the WA-19 offers a unique combination of dynamic microphone features and studio-quality condenser tone. With the critical noise reduction and proximity effect reduction of a dynamic microphone, the WA-19 captures crisp high frequencies with enhanced detail, outperforming many dynamic studio microphones. This sound was used by artists such as The Beatles, Tame Impala, and Slayer (Kerry King). Expressive Converters and Significant Audio Features To deliver its highly acclaimed original sound profile, the WA-19 features a custom hand-assembled dynamic cardioid humbucker capsule that combines the critical noise rejection of a dynamic microphone with the treble clarity of a condenser. The WA-19 features a variable high-pass acoustic filter ring that cuts up to 10dB at 50Hz, perfect for tightening up your tone and accentuating the upper midrange without introducing the electrical phase shift often caused by preamp high-pass filters. Additionally, ventilation slots on the sides of the WA-19 body reduce the proximity effect, eliminating the boomy bass that can occur when placing a microphone close to a loud source, resulting in fewer unwanted bass frequencies competing in your mix and making editing easier. Applications - Vocals, Focused Vocals - Drums, Thump & Clarity In Drums - Acoustic Guitar, Brilliant Acoustic Guitar - Snare, Polished Snare Tones

Features

  • WA-19 The WA-19 showcases a uniquely crafted brass dynamic cardioid humbucking capsule, meticulously assembled by hand. This capsule combines the essential noise rejection of a dynamic microphone, while also delivering heightened clarity and a vibrant top-end for enhanced detail, surpassing many studio dynamic microphones.
  • Vents Vents located down the side of the WA-19 help reduce proximity effect, ensuring troublesome bass due to close micing of loud sources is removed. This makes editing a breeze as there are less unwanted bass frequencies competing in the mix.
  • Versatile Acoustic High-Pass Filter Ring The WA-19 comes equipped with a versatile acoustic high-pass filter ring capable of reducing up to 10dB at 50 Hz. The filter itself modifies the space behind the transducer in the WA-19 to remove unwanted sub bass. This feature is perfect for refining the tone, emphasizing the upper midrange, and avoiding the typical electronic phase shift associated with preamp high-pass filters.
