Their acclaimed compressors and preamps have famously upset the pro audio price/performance ratio. Now Warm Audio turns its attention to microphones – and as usual, has set a high target: one of the most iconic large-diaphragm FET condenser mics in history. Naturally, the WA-87 features switchable cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8 polar patterns. Warm doesn’t cut corners on components (the WA-87 employs a genuine US-made Cinemag transformer), but they do order parts and build in quantity, which keeps costs down and delivers amazing value.
