Warm Audio WA-87jr Studio Vocal Microphone - Black

Warm Audio's acclaimed compressors and preamps have famously upset the pro audio price/performance ratio. When the company turned its attention to microphones with the WA-87, it set a high target: one of the most iconic large-diaphragm, multi-pattern FET condenser mics in history. To say Warm Audio succeeded would be an understatement: the original WA-87 was a best-seller here at Tu. Now, with the WA-87jr, Warm Audio has made its modern classic more accessible than ever before. Featuring the same dual-backplate, gold-sputtered K87-style capsule and multi-pattern functionality as found in the company's WA-87 R2 microphone, the Warm Audio WA-87jr brings the professional sound and versatility of coveted vintage large-diaphragm mics within reach to an even wider audience.

Affordable modern incarnation of a legendary mic

Flash back to any top recording studio in the 1970s. You'll see the venerable '87 everywhere: on toms, overheads, guitar cabs, brass, congas, vocals - you name it. Sweetwater engineers who have worked with different generations of this perennial studio favorite know that the vintage ones have a warmer, more forgiving sonic character. By using a modern transformerless circuit design and the same dual-backplate, gold-sputtered K87-style capsule as found in Warm Audio's professional R2 series, the WA-87jr brings the heart and soul of the '87 home to your studio at a price that is almost too good to be true!

What can the WA-87jr do for you?

Every studio needs at least one pair of high-quality large-diaphragm condenser mics, and the Warm Audio WA-87jr is designed after a legendary one. You can use the WA-87jr on anything with world-class results. It's great for vocals. It makes drums sound huge. It's a must-have for adding a bit of room to complement a close dynamic or ribbon mic on a guitar cabinet. It's an ideal choice for any acoustic instrument - strings, brass, woodwinds, or percussion. We've even used it on a kick drum (where the -10dB pad comes in handy)! It's equipped with a 70Hz highpass filter that's useful for eliminating low-end mud and rumble. And its three polar patterns further increase this microphone's already impressive versatility.
