The WA-47jr series is a contemporary version of the legendary 47-style studio microphone that delivers rich analog tone with modern circuitry. WA-47jr & WA-47jr SE mics are equally at home in a project studio or in a world-class recording facility. Each features a vintage-correct reproduction of the lauded K47-style capsule, the same capsule in the flagship WA-47 tube mic. The capsule has the same tonal character known for capturing legendary recordings by classic and modern artists including The Beatles, Billie Eilish, Harry Styles, Adele and many more.
Combining possibly the greatest classic condenser capsule of all time with our carefully crafted, modern circuits, the WA-47jr mics deliver that analog warmth and pristine detail for capturing everything from vocals, to toms, to acoustic guitar. Available with onboard controls and multiple patterns or a streamlined cardioid-only design, the WA-47jr mics all have a discrete signal path, exceptional dynamic range, and ultra-low self-noise. The sound profile of the WA-47jr series blends past and present to achieve the ideal blend of vintage tone and modern performance.
Big bottom, midrange depth, and smooth high end.
