Description
The Warm Audio WA-87jr-N is a contemporary nickel-finish version of the iconic ‘87-style microphone, designed to deliver professional studio sound with modern recording flexibility. Combining a transformerless circuit design with premium components, it captures pristine highs, detailed mids, and rich analog warmth for vocals, streaming, podcasting, acoustic instruments, drums, and more.
At the heart of the WA-87jr-N is a vintage-accurate dual-backplate K87-style large-diaphragm capsule inspired by the most sought-after ‘87 microphones. Engineered with the same hole pattern and frequency response as the original studio classic, this capsule delivers polished and detailed sound reproduction with ultra-low self-noise and exceptional clarity.
Built for versatile recording applications, the WA-87jr-N features three selectable polar patterns-cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8 along with a built-in pad and high-pass filter for handling loud sources and reducing unwanted low-frequency noise. It also includes professional accessories such as a shock mount, hard mount, and leather storage case, while every microphone is meticulously hand-tested in Austin, Texas to ensure reliable performance and consistent quality.
