The WA-19 faithfully recreates one of the most favored dynamic microphones for studio and live use from the 1960s. Like the original, beloved by studio and live engineers, the WA-19 delivers a unique blend of dynamic microphone functionality with condenser-quality studio-grade tones. Offering critical noise rejection and reduced proximity effect typical of a dynamic mic, the WA-19 captures vibrant highs for enhanced detail, outperforming many studio dynamic microphones. This sound has been utilized by artists such as The Beatles, Tame Impala, Slayer (Kerry King), and many more.

The WA-19 features an exclusive handcrafted brass dynamic cardioid humbucker capsule. This capsule combines the essential noise rejection of a dynamic microphone while delivering increased clarity and vibrant highs to enhance detail, surpassing many studio dynamic microphones.

The WA-19 is equipped with a versatile acoustic high-pass filter ring capable of reducing up to 10 dB at 50 Hz. The filter modifies the space behind the WA-19’s transducer to eliminate unwanted sub-bass frequencies. This feature is perfect for refining tone, emphasizing upper mids, and avoiding the typical phase shift associated with preamp high-pass filters.

The side venting grills on the WA-19 help reduce proximity effect, ensuring that the boomy bass commonly produced when placing the mic close to loud sound sources is minimized.
This makes editing easier, as there are fewer unwanted low frequencies competing in the mix.
