INTRODUCING AN UPDATED AND UPGRADED '87 STYLE FET CONDENSER MICROPHONE WA-87 R2: Updated And Upgraded In 2016, we at Warm Audio introduced one of the most talked-about 87-style FET condenser microphones in the industry with the release of the WA-87, and at just $599 USD it made the looks and authentic vintage sonics of this style of mic affordable to customers for the very first time. Simply put, the release of the WA-87 changed the industry’s perception of what could be achieved at an affordable price.  Based on classic 60s circuitry, the WA-87’s rich sound became a favorite of countless producers, engineers, and home recordists everywhere.  It was our first microphone and a verifiable hit, and in recent years we’ve followed it with many other successful and ground-breaking designs. Since the release of the WA-87 in 2016 we’ve learned a bunch more about microphone manufacturing, and we’ve proven that we can shatter the industry’s quality expectations at affordable prices. That experience drove us to see if we could improve the WA-87 in tangible ways without having to raise the price, and the result is the new WA-87 R2 (Revision 2). We’ve used everything we’ve learned about recreating vintage microphones in the last five years to bring it even closer to the sound, vibe and performance of the original 60s classic we all know and love. We’re ecstatic to bring you the result – in short, the new WA-87 R2 is bigger, bolder and just plain better! A Faithful Reproduction With Top-Shelf Components The WA-87 is based on a classic 60s circuit that is widely considered to be one of the greatest studio microphones ever designed. We spent countless hours trying to get even closer to the sound of the vintage version than we had with the WA-87, so the new WA-87 R2 uses top-quality components like a NOS Fairchild transistor and high-bandwidth polystyrene and film capacitors from Wima. The WA-87 R2 uses a custom-wound Cinemag USA output transformer like the original WA-87 did, with the new version providing a slightly increased output level and improved frequency response. We also employed the same capsule the WA-87 uses, which was designed to the exact specifications of the ones found in the vintage mics. The result is an incredibly accurate sonic replica of arguably the widest-used studio microphone in popular recording history! The Most Versatile Mic In Your Locker Just like the vintage microphone, the WA-87 R2 excels at recording virtually anything. Three polar patterns (cardioid, omni, and figure 8) make sure you’re covered for a wide variety of applications, and an 80Hz high pass filter reduces low-frequency rumble if needed. The switchable -10dB pad comes in handy when you want to record extremely loud sources and not overload the internal electronics. The WA-87 R2 works brilliantly on vocals, drum overheads, guitars, piano, auxiliary percussion, brass, strings, and more. Not only that, it’s the same price as the original WA-87, so you can afford to have several in your mic locker! Stunning In Sound And Appearance The WA-87 R2 is now encased in a heavier, stronger and larger nickel-plated brass body, and the new rounded head basket shape adds additional space around the capsule for a more pleasing sonic signature. With authentic vintage warmth and a smooth detailed top end, we truly believe this mic performs on par with microphones costing five times as much or more. No matter what else you’ve got in your mic locker, the WA-87 R2 is sure to become one of your favorite go-to microphones!

he WA-47 is an all vacuum tube, large diaphragm, transformer balanced, multi-pattern (9), large condenser microphone, based on the classic ‘47 that has been used on countless hit records for the last 50+ years.  The WA-47 is designed for pro studio, home studio, live, and broadcast applications and sounds great on vocals, acoustic/electric guitars, acoustic/electric bass, drums, piano, strings, brass/woodwind instruments, and an array of other sources. The classic ‘47 became extremely popular in the 1960’s and is now considered one of the greatest microphones every made.  The classic ‘47 is still widely used today in professional recording studios but have become extremely rare and expensive to acquire.True '47 style capsuleThe WA-47 utilizes a custom reproduction of the vintage k47 style capsule that was used in the classic ‘47 microphone - designed with the same hole pattern and frequency response.  Every Warm Audio capsule is made in the same small assembly house in a clean-room environment,  and packaged in its own protective jewel case until the moment it is loaded into the microphone.  Each capsule is visually inspected and electrically tested for imperfections.The CapsuleThe WA-47 utilizes a custom reproduction of the vintage k47 style capsule that was used in the classic ‘47 microphone - designed with the same hole pattern and frequency response.  Our version of this capsule (model# WA-47-B-80v) is carefully manufactured by an Australian capsule manufacturer who's precision and repeatability allows us to nail the vintage sonics of the most important sonic piece of this classic style of microphone.​The TubeA Slovak Republic JJ 5751 vacuum tube is a lower gain, low noise tube that forces much of the sonics of the capsule and transformer to be heard more significantly than some higher gain tubes might allow.  We auditioned 4 different tube brands and fell in love with the JJ 5751.  The frequency response of the JJ 5751 and the way it contributes to the circuit is tonally smooth and vintage in nature.​The TransformerThe WA-47 utilizes an American made TAB-Funkenwerk (AMI) USA transformer with large core imported German laminations.  This transformer helps provide the creamy smooth top end, and the LARGER THAN LIFE bottom end one would expect from a '47 style condenser microphone.​The CableOne component of a tube microphone often overlooked is the 7 pin cable that connects the microphone to its power supply.  When auditioning the WA-47 and other tube microphones we learned quite a bit about 7 pin cables and how the shielding and wire gauge size can drastically change the sonics of a tube microphone.  We have partnered with Gotham Audio in Switzerland to use their very carefully built top-end 7 pin GAC-7 cable. Using this cable increases top end presence and the overall size of the recorded image in the stereo field, by reducing phase shift and the parasitic effect often found in poorly built cables. Gotham Audio is very expensive and boutique in nature and should not be considered a small addition to the WA-47 package.​The CapacitorsThe WA-47 uses a polystyrene coupling capacitor for uncompressed top-end response from the capsule, wima film capacitors throughout, and an imported Solen French capacitor on its output driving the TAB-Funkenwerk (AMI) USA output transformer.Specifications:Custom true '47 capsule reproduction (k47 style) - Model# WA-47-B-80vCapsule makeup: Gold sputtered, dual large diaphragm, single backplate, 6 microns NOS mylar (PET film)TAB-Funkenwerk (AMI) USA output transformerJJ Slovak 5751 vacuum tubeGotham 5 meter GAC-7, 7-pin tube microphone cableWima, Solen French, and Polystyrene capacitorsPolar Patterns: 9 patterns - Cardioid, Omni, figure-of-eight + 6 mixed patternsSelf-noise: 11dBADynamic range: 130dBAMaximum SPL: 140dB  (

The Chandler Limited EMI Abbey Road Studios ‘TG Microphone Type L’ is a phantom powered, cardioid, large diaphragm condenser microphone, and as the name implies, the Type L is descended from the innovative ‘TG Microphone.’The TG Microphone Type L inherits the core circuitry, capsule and ‘Dual Tone System’ of the larger ‘TG Microphone;’ however, this is where the similarity ends. Apart from the ‘TG Microphone,’ the Type L is tuned to have its own sound and unique voicings.The Type L’s Dual Tone System feature provides two distinct characters in one microphone, ‘A’ and ‘B,’ and modifies the input stage, which extends the versatility of the microphone to accommodate a greater array of sources.System ‘A’ is TG mid forward and harmonically rich, whereas, the ‘B’ voicing has a ribbon-like quality and is more pristine by contrast.Tonal differences of the Dual Tone System aside, the Type L was designed to handle sensitive and higher SPL sources. With the PAD engaged, both system ‘A’ and ‘B’ are capable of handling loud sources; however, the ‘B’ setting with the PAD engaged is considered the extreme SPL mode of the Type L.The TG Microphone Type L has a larger than solid-state sound and is intended as a recording studio workhorse, capable of rivaling scenarios where the C12, C414, FET47, U67 and U87 have found favor and may replace the practice of employing a dynamic and a ribbon in combination on guitar cabinets.The Chandler Limited EMI Abbey Road Studios TG Microphone Type L kit includes: microphone, swivel mount and bamboo storage box.Chandler Limited and associated logos are trademarks of Chandler Limited, Inc.

The Beginning of Something Big The M 49 is a great microphone in every respect. For as impressive as its physical appearance is its incomparable sound. With its revolutionary technology, the M 49 has set new standards altogether. The M 49 is a true Neumann legend. Everything and More      The objective itself was grand: in the early 1950s, a reference microphone was developed in cooperation with the Nordwestdeutscher Rundfunk (Northwest German Broadcasting) that was to replace all previous ones. Instead of having to replace the capsule in order to change the directional characteristic, the M 49 allowed remote controlling the polar pattern from the power supply – continuously. With its balanced frequency response in all directional patterns from omnidirectional to cardioid to figure-8, including intermediate settings, the M 49 is a truly universal microphone: be it orchestra, piano, trumpet, or vocals, the M 49 is suitable for recordings of all kinds to the highest standard. As a result, the M 49 was, and still is, in great demand. No other Neumann microphone of the tube age was manufactured for a longer period: from 1951 to 1971. Countless legendary recordings from cool jazz to present day pop bear its elegant sound signature. The M 49 is an inseparable part of the Neumann DNA. The Best of the Best At last, the legend is available again! The M 49 V is a reissue of the last revision c. Over the years, the M 49 was continuously improved: the originally installed Hiller tube MSC2 was replaced by the Telefunken tube AC701and then the AC701k. This and other circuit changes improved the signal-to-noise ratio, dynamic range, and immunity to interference. In parallel, a broadcast version, the M 249, was issued with an RF-proof connector. The M 49 V uses the same circuit as the M 49 c, but with an even lower noise subminiature tube. Since high-frequency interference has increased dramatically due to mobile phone networks and WiFi, the RF-proof connector has been adopted from tche M 249. The included NM V pattern control unit is designed to automatically provide the optimal heater voltage for both the M 49 V and any historical M 49; it also automatically adapts to the local mains voltage. Additionally, the M 49 V set includes the iconic yoke mount, whose flexible positioning has contributed to the M 49’s enormous popularity. The M 49 V set is delivered in a high-quality case, which, like the entire microphone, is handmade in Germany.

The WA-14 is a '414-style condenser microphone based on the early 1970's microphone used on countless hit records. The WA-14 utilizes a custom all-brass CK12-style capsule, CineMag USA transformer, and a fully discrete signal path. The WA-14 can be used on an array of sources, such as; punchy/warm intimate lead vocals, acoustic/electric guitars, bass, drums/percussion, strings/orchestral material, and many other sources. The WA-14 provides a realism and thickness that is true to the vintage microphone, but now at an affordable price.All-brass CapsuleThe WA-12-B-60V is an all-brass, edge-terminated capsule that captures all the smoothness, rich top end, and warm vintage sonics of the original CK12 capsule. The WA-12-B-60V uses a variant CEK-12 backplate as a basis, which overcomes manufacturing limitations of the original CK12 capsule. The o-ring and housing of the WA-12-B-60V are all made from brass (no teflon parts), and the diaphragm is 24k gold sputtered 6 micron, NOS PET film (mylar). The end result is a very consistent, reliable capsule which matches the frequency response and tonality of the classic 1970's classic capsule. Included in delivery:2 Shockmounts2 Microphone clamps2 PU leather zip pouches1 Transport case1 Stereo mounting rail

Chandler Limited's multi-year design project with Abbey Road Studios has yielded the first EMI-branded mic in over a half century. The REDD Microphone presents a classic aesthetic — but this is no vintage mic clone. It marks a paradigm shift of major proportions, incorporating historic circuits and their legendary sonics in a new and unique way. The all-analog design combines microphone and preamp in an elegant, handcrafted large-diaphragm condenser microphone you can use with or without an external mic pre. Fitted with a custom handmade platinum-membrane capsule and the vintage vacuum tube REDD.47 mic amplifier circuit, the REDD Microphone will output line-level signal and features a Drive setting that introduces tasty, vintage-flavored harmonic color.Abbey Road's holy-grail preamp onboardThe REDD.47 preamp in the REDD Microphone re-creates the original tube line amps developed by EMI's Record Engineering Development Department for deployment in Abbey Road Studios' rare, custom EMI REDD.51 recording consoles. This is the unmistakably punchy, aggressive sound that characterized recordings made in Studio Two between 1964 and 1968 — including legendary tracks by the Beatles. As implemented in the REDD Microphone, modern features have been added to meet contemporary recording studio standards, such as gain control that gives you a range of tonal options, from pristine clean to rich, classic saturation. Features and included accessoriesChandler Limited spec'd the REDD Microphone with a rotary switch on the rear of the microphone body that lets you dial in gain between +4 and +33dB. Continuous output control is accessible from the included external power supply. Around the other side of the mic is a Type switch with Norm and Drive settings — the latter increasing gain to +36dB and introducing distinctive tonal coloration. Also onboard are a 10dB pad and polarity reverse switches. The mic comes with a spider-type shockmount, a 25-foot Mogami mic cable, and a custom-molded flight case.Chandler Limited REDD Microphone Features:The first EMI-branded mic in over a half centuryCombines microphone and preamp in 1 elegant deviceOnboard vacuum tube REDD.47 mic amplifier circuitUse it with or without an external mic preampHandmade platinum-membrane capsuleRotary switch lets you dial in gain between +4 and +33dBDrive setting increased gain to +36dB, introducing tasty tonal coloration10dB pad and polarity reverse switchesIncludes outboard power supply, high-quality spider-type shockmountShips with 25-foot Mogami mic cable and custom-molded flight caseCrafted in Chandler Limited's Shell Rock, Iowa, factoryChandler Limited and their associated logos are registered trademarks of Chandler Limited, Inc.

The Chandler Limited TG Microphone is a solid-state large-diaphragm condenser microphone that carries forward the rich legacy of EMI Abbey Road Studios innovation. In addition to its cardioid and omni polar patterns, the TG Microphone employs a unique feature set consisting of an onboard Dual Tone System, EMI Tape Equalizer, 50Hz/90Hz highpass filter, 10dB pad, and outboard power supply to deliver unrivaled versatility and sonic character. Much like a classic tube mic, the TG Microphone's use of a dedicated PSU — rather than 48-volt phantom power — is integral to its huge, lifelike sound.A sound that rivals the classicsIf you're coveting the sound of classic vintage microphones like the U47, U87, FET47, and C414 for your recordings, then you'll love the TG Microphone. In close cooperation with Abbey Road Studios, Chandler Limited developed the TG Microphone's unique onboard EMI Tape Equalizer and Dual Tone System that allow you to tailor the mic's tonality for results that favorably compare to the above-mentioned classics.The Tape EqualizerThe Tape Equalizer circuitry is adapted from the NAB/IEC Tape EQ found on vintage EMI TG mastering consoles, and it works wonders in the TG Microphone. Originally used to compensate for tapes played back on machines aligned to the opposing standard, the TG Microphone's repurposed Tape Equalizer lets you shape the sound at the source, eliminating the need for further processing (and the attendant signal degradation) downstream. The sound-shaping possibilities are further extended when the Tape Equalizer is combined with the selectable 50Hz/90Hz highpass filter.The Dual Tone SystemThe Dual Tone System modifies the TG Microphone's input stage and extends the mic's versatility to accommodate a broad array of sources. System A is classic TG mid-forward, while the alternative B voicing accommodates high SPLs and is the preferred setting wherever you would normally reach for a FET47. Combined with the Tape Equalizer, the Dual Tone System yields 10 unique voicings.The TG storyIf you're wondering about the origin of the "TG" product designation, then allow Sweetwater to illuminate. The story begins in 1958. EMI London, as Abbey Road Studios was then known, had a staff of innovative recording and technical engineers and racks of the best gear available at the time; much of it either heavily modified — or designed from scratch — by EMI technicians. The Beatles, of course, were the most famous beneficiaries of EMI's technical prowess. Their early records were recorded on EMI REDD .37 valve consoles built by EMI Central Research Laboratories in the late 1950s, while the updated REDD .51 handled their mid-'60s output — including Sgt. Pepper.The introduction of 8-track recording and the increasing sonic experimentation of a new generation of artists demanded new technology; thus, a new EMI-designed desk made its debut in 1968. With 24 mic inputs, eight buses, four echo sends, two cue sends, and — for the first time ever — a compressor/limiter (in addition to EQ) on every channel, the TG12345 console was substantially larger and more capable than the REDD desks, and driven by transistors rather than tubes, its sound was dramatically richer and more highly detailed. The "TG" prefix was a nod to EMI's corporate predecessor, "The Gramophone" company. The TG12345 was put to the test in Studio Two the following year on the Beatles' Abbey Road album.The groundbreaking sound quality of the solid-state EMI TG12345 recording and mastering consoles left its mark on legendary albums by the rock royalty of the era. Four generations of the TG12345 served Abbey Road clients (the studio had changed its name in honor of the Beatles album) through the 1970s, recording countless hit records and film scores before being retired from service in 1983.Chandler Limited TG Microphone Features:Solid-state large-diaphragm condenser micCardioid and omnidirectional polar patternsOnboard Dual Tone System, EMI TG Tape Equalizer, 50Hz/90Hz highpass filter, 10dB padIncludes a shockmount, a dedicated PSU, a 25' Mogami 4-pin cable, and a wooden storage caseQuality crafted by Chandler Limited in Shell Rock, IA

The making of Stealth - The Aston 33 and the blind testing process The Aston 33 (so named after the original members) is now a panel of more than 120 top producers, engineers and artists who work with Aston on new product development to ensure every mic is best in class before it is released to the market. They perform blind listening tests on a range of possible versions of each new mic, plus  ‘industry standard’ models from key manufacturers and vote on performance on a variety of sources (vocals, guitars and so on). In tests the panel do not know which mics they are listening to, so the resultant votes can’t be affected by brand reputation, or an expectation of how a certain microphone should sound. Some surprising results arose from the Stealth project testing. For example the prototype Stealth voicing that consistently came top in the voting for female vocal takes came off worst for male vocals and vice versa, regardless of the pitch of the singer! Furthermore a different voicing came top for ALL guitar sources, from finger picked acoustic through to mic’d distorted guitar cabs. These discoveries, derived from more than 9000 data samples, were the catalyst for the Aston team to set about reimagining the microphone from the ground up. Stealth truly excels at capturing professional quality audio in almost every situation, and masters them all. With 4 switchable voices delivering unparalleled performance in almost any situation, a Class A built in mic preamp with autodetect 48V Phantom power (a world’s first!) and featuring a unique Sorbothane internal shock mount system and Aston’s legendary build quality, we reckon Stealth is the world’s most versatile microphone. Stealth was developed in partnership with 92 top engineers, producers and artists (the Aston 33 development panel) who participated in a series of blind listening tests designed to create the best possible sound… the resulting four voice settings, Vocal 1, Vocal 2, Guitar and Dark, offer a range of world class sounds to suit almost every application.

The Starlight features a 20 mm cardioid capsule hand-picked by a panel of more than 70 top producers (Aston 33) in double blind listening tests conducted during 2016. Starlight showcases a host of innovations, including laser targeting, multiple voices (Vintage, Modern & Hybrid), and near perfectly linear off-axis response, which have seen the mic win a host of international awards, and a nomination for 2018 NAMM TEC, the ‘Oscars’ of the music technology industry. The Starlight is, like all of our products, packed full of technical innovation and sounds truly stunning. Nominated for the prestigious NAMM TEC Award in 2018 it represents the very pinnacle of pencil mic technology with its multiple voicing options, laser targeting and near perfectly linear off axis response.

A Modern Classic The TLM 103 has quickly become one of the biggest successes in Neumann’s history. Its pristine, clear sound is a modern update on the classic U87. The TLM 103 is a transformerless cardioid condenser microphone with a gentle presence boost for a stunningly direct sound with breathtaking definition and ultra low noise. The New Standard Introduced in 1997 as an affordable alternative to the venerable U 87, the TLM 103 has since become a modern classic in its own right. Today, the TLM 103 defines the standard by which contemporary studio microphones are measured. Its classic tapered headgrille design gives the TLM 103 a distinct Neumann look. The TLM 103 is a cardioid microphone with a large diaphragm condenser capsule derived from the classic K67/87 capsule of the legendary Neumann U 87. However, the TLM 103 has a slightly more modern voicing with a wide presence boost for frequencies above 5 kHz. Its very direct yet refined sound is perfect for vocals, and solo instruments that pop out of the mix without effort. Of course, the TLM 103 also has the famous authoritative midrange that has become the hallmark of Neumann microphones and made them the number one choice in studios around the world. A unique feature of the TLM 103 is its impressively deep yet controlled low end, perfect for sonorous voices and powerful bass instruments. Technical Excellence  The TLM 103 has set new standards for technical performance, too. With an incredibly low self-noise of only 7 dB-A , it is among the quietest microphones available. And its high sensitivity of 23 mV/Pa, ensures ultra low noise even with budget preamps and audio interfaces or vintage tube equipment. At the same time, the TLM 103 can handle enormous sound pressure levels of up to 138 dB without the need for preattenuation. Its vast dynamic range of 131 dB makes the TLM 103 a very easy to use studio microphone as it will capture anything from a soft whisper to a thunderous bass drum without adding noise or distortion. As a member of Neumann’s TLM series, the TLM 103 works with a transformerless output stage, which minimizes transmission losses and ensures a very immediate, uncolored sound, true to the original, as well as a clear, powerful bass response, even at highest signal levels. Applications The TLM 103 was primarily designed for project studios and broadcast use, but due to its outstanding performance was soon embraced by renowned studios as a more modern sounding alternative to the U87 e.g. for speech, vocals, drums, guitar amps, and piano. The TLM 103 is also often used as a spot mic in classical recordings e.g. for cello and double bass.
