Whether we’re talking about looks or sound, the ribbon mics of the 1930s are some of the most immediately identifiable mics of all-time — and Warm Audio has impeccably recreated both for their WA-44 studio ribbon microphone. Just like the originals, the WA-44 delivers rich, warm tone that epitomizes “classic” ribbon character. Its bidirectional polar pattern provides exceptional off-axis rejection while its custom, vintage-matched ribbon and robust neodymium magnet work in tandem with a custom CineMag USA-made transformer to deliver lush mids, a rolled-off top end, and the pronounced proximity effect that ribbons are known and prized for. Inspected and tested by Warm Audio, the WA-44 is the perfect choice for capturing lead tones on vocals, horns, acoustics, drums, piano, voice work, and so much more.
