  • Key Specs
    • Number of Channels: 4 (The number of discrete channels of sound output. This can be a single number or multiple numbers separated by decimal(s). The first number is the primary, horizontally directed audio channels. The number after the first decimal, if applicable, is the number of subwoofer outputs or channels. The number after the second decimal, if applicable, is the number of height or atmospheric channels designed to immerse the listener by producing overhead sound effects.)
    • Surround Sound Supported: Not Applicable (Surround sound systems use multiple audio channels and speakers to create an immersive sound experience for the listener. There are also various proprietary technologies that imitate this kind of sound via a device's built-in speakers or soundbar.)
    • Audio Only Inputs: 1 x 3.5mm audio, 4 x Analog audio

    • Preamp/Processor Design: Solid state (Tube design processors use vacuum tubes to process sound, a method typically more expensive than the transistors used in solid-state processors. Depending on the desired sound, one may prefer the warm tonal quality and character that tubes provide or the crisp, clean sound of solid-state circuitry.)

Experience vintage magic with this Warm Audio four-channel microphone preamp. Each channel features a tone switch, letting you choose between a neutral, open sound or a warmer, more classic console tone. This Warm Audio four-channel microphone preamp features unique custom transformers to provide an extended low-frequency response and employs a vintage winding technique for increased smoothness.

  • Classic American console preamp design: The WA-412 preamplifier provides four channels of classic American console preamps in a sleek 1RU design.
  • Fully discrete socketed six-pin op-amp: Each channel uses a six-pin op-amp that can be swapped with other op-amps. Discrete op-amp circuitry is known for its high headroom and low distortion characteristics and has much to do with the coveted sound of these classic console preamps.
  • Altran input and output transformers: Use vintage winding technique that produces a very distinct smooth big character.
  • Eight inputs: The unit offers four 1/4" TRS and four XRL inputs/outputs.
  • Output trim on every channel: Allows precise control and creative gain staging.
  • Tone switch (transformer input impedance): Also available on each channel, which allows you to choose between a warm and punchy classic console tone, or go for a more open and neutral sound.
