Take your audio recording to the next level with the WA-84 Small Diaphragm Condenser Microphone in Nickel. This high-quality, professional-grade microphone is based on classic microphone circuitry, offering a fully discrete Class A design that incorporates a CineMag USA transformer, polystyrene and Wima capacitors, and a Fairchild FET.
Designed to cater to a wide range of applications, the WA-84 is perfect for professional studios, home studios, live performances, and broadcast applications. It excels in capturing the nuances of various instruments and sources, including acoustic and electric guitars, bass, drums, piano, strings, brass, woodwind instruments, and more, making it a versatile addition to your audio equipment collection.
Despite its compact size, the WA-84 delivers a large, warm sound, thanks to its heavy Nickel CineMag transformer. This innovative design choice sets it apart from many small diaphragm condenser microphones that have moved to transformer-less technology for ease of design and lower-cost manufacturing. The WA-84, however, embraces a more boutique design known for its crystal clear, yet smooth, large sound.
At the heart of the WA-84 is a custom vintage-style capsule, meticulously manufactured by an Australian capsule supplier to emulate classic componentry and design techniques. This high-quality capsule is key to the microphone's ability to faithfully reproduce the sonics of the most important component of any microphone.
The WA-84's circuitry is a testament to its commitment to quality, featuring a fully discrete Class A design that utilizes a CineMag USA transformer, polystyrene and Wima capacitors, and a Fairchild FET. The American made CineMag USA transformer contributes to the microphone's legendary creamy smooth top-end and robust mid to bottom-end sound.
The WA-84 proudly incorporates Wima, polystyrene, and tantalum through-hole capacitors throughout, further enhancing its performance and reliability. With its durable construction and innovative design, the WA-84 Small Diaphragm Condenser Microphone in Nickel is a reliable choice for those seeking superior sound quality.
