Warm Audio WA-CX24 Stereo Tube Condenser Microphone  From Warm Audio

The Unobtainable, Recreated With Premium Components & Ultimate Versatility: The WA-CX24 faithfully recreates one of the most iconic vintage stereo large-diaphragm condenser microphones ever produced. WA-CX24 delivers critical vintage-correct features allowing for multiple pickup patterns and varying stereo widths to support stereo recording configurations even the most imaginative of engineers and artists will be excited by. 

Smooth Highs and Vibrant Midrange: The WA-CX24 captures organic and natural sounding tone with pleasing high end and colorful midrange so you feel the performance come through. Open “live” drums, wide stereo acoustic guitars, and spacious pianos with natural mids and smooth high end. 

Full, 180-Degree Capsule Rotation: Rotating the capsules of the WA-CX24 provides exceptional flexibility for achieving precise stereo imaging in audio recordings. By independently adjusting the position of each capsule, you can tweak the stereo pickup pattern for various recording techniques, such as XY, Blumlein, mid-side, or a custom angle tailored to the sound source and recording environment.

Independently Assignable Polar-Pattern Switching: Mixing polar patterns on the two capsules on the WA-CX24 unlocks, even more versatility and creative control in recording. By combining different patterns, such as cardioid on one capsule and figure-8 on the other, you can craft a unique stereo image and tailor the mic’s response to the recording environment.

No-Compromise Components: WA-CX24 is loaded with two of the same CK12-style capsules used on our celebrated WA-CX12 microphone, machined out of solid brass and designed to reproduce sound with vintage-correct results. The middle of the mic houses a premium 12AY7 tube carefully selected to bring vintage warmth to the circuit without sacrificing smooth clarity in the top end. Rounding out the circuit, the WA-CX24 sports two premium, USA-made T14 transformers from TAB-Funkenwork (AMI) to deliver ultimate signal integrity to the 9-pin cable and out to the box. 

An Impressive Array Of Accessories: The WA-CX24 comes with a 9-pin GAC-9 cable from Gotham AG Switzerland, the manufacturer trusted to deliver premium cable stock of the most sought-after tube microphones in the past and present. Additional accessories include a dual-polar pattern equipped power supply, IEC cable, shockmount, custom wood display box, and custom tweed flight case.
