Warm Audio - Dynamic Studio Microphone with Cardioid Polar Pattern, Variable 50Hz Highpass Filter, and 145dB Max SPL

Rediscover the warmth, clarity, and character of classic 1960s recordings with the Warm Audio WA-19 Dynamic Studio Microphone — a stunning modern recreation of one of the most iconic microphones in music history. Originally made famous in the legendary Abbey Road Studios and heard on countless Beatles sessions, this mic was affectionately nicknamed “The Ringo Mic.” Warm Audio has meticulously reverse-engineered the vintage design to deliver the same punchy, smooth tone, while integrating modern upgrades for today’s demanding recording environments. The WA-19 delivers rich, balanced sound across a wide frequency range of 30Hz to 18kHz, making it an incredibly versatile tool for any studio or live setup. Its cardioid polar pattern ensures focused sound capture with exceptional off-axis rejection — perfect for isolating vocals, guitars, drums, and amplifiers even in acoustically challenging rooms. The result is a clean, professional-quality recording with outstanding depth and detail. One of the standout features of the WA-19 is its built-in 50Hz highpass filter, allowing you to remove unwanted low-end frequencies and rumble directly from the source. This filter can cut up to -10dB, giving engineers precise control over proximity effect and mix clarity. Whether you’re tracking the shimmer of cymbals, the resonance of a snare, or the natural tone of an acoustic guitar, the WA-19 delivers beautifully balanced results that sit perfectly in the mix. Designed for both precision and flexibility, the WA-19 features a ventilated body design that minimizes boominess when recording up close, giving engineers the freedom to mic instruments at tighter distances without muddying the sound. This makes it an exceptional choice for detailed acoustic work, punchy electric guitars, and dynamic drum overheads. Combined with its 145dB maximum SPL handling, this microphone can capture even the loudest sound sources — from roaring amps to explosive tom fills — without distortion or loss of nuance. The WA-19 doesn’t just sound vintage — it feels vintage. Its solid, slim-profile metal housing not only recalls the elegant style of classic studio microphones but also provides unmatched durability for both studio and live performance environments. Its sleek design makes placement effortless, even in crowded drum kits or small recording booths, while maintaining excellent stability and reliability. Every component inside the WA-19 is selected to meet Warm Audio’s high standards for sonic accuracy and analog warmth. Engineers and producers love its natural, open midrange, smooth high-frequency response, and tight, controlled bass. From vocals and guitars to percussion and brass, the WA-19 captures sound with stunning realism and musicality that harkens back to the golden age of analog recording. Whether you’re recreating vintage tones from the 1960s or pushing the limits of modern production, the Warm Audio WA-19 Dynamic Studio Microphone delivers the authentic sound, build quality, and performance you can rely on. It’s not just a microphone — it’s a piece of recording history reborn for a new generation of artists, producers, and engineers who value warmth, detail, and timeless tone.
