The workhorse returns

Warm Audio 's WA-CX12 is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone with electron tube and dual-diaphragm capsule in CK12 construction. It's an authentic adaptation of a tube condenser classic that was an absolute studio workhorse in the '50s, '60s, and '70s, and is so sought after these days that an original model costs a small fortune - if you can get it at all.

Why do I need a WA-CX12 for my studio?

Some of the world's most renowned sound engineers and artists such as Taylor Swift, The Beatles and Michael Jackson already used the original microphone and appreciated this legend for its open, airy and naturally clear sound. With its carefully selected components and exemplary build quality, the WA-CX12 delivers that natural and balanced sound of its role model that no home or professional microphone cabinet should be without.
