{"product_id":"warm-audio-wa-47f-366836","title":"WA-47F","description":"\u003ch3\u003eA Classic FET Reimagined for Today's Studios\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe WA-47F follows the tradition of large-diaphragm FET microphones, appreciated for decades for their \u003cstrong\u003eimmediate transient response\u003c\/strong\u003e and ability to remain clear where others saturate or become muddy. On the original, this combination of speed, dynamics, and presence made it a highly sought-after choice in demanding professional environments, especially when capturing powerful sources without losing attack precision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith the WA-47F, the goal is clear: to recapture this \u003cstrong\u003esound profile\u003c\/strong\u003e (wide dynamics, detail, impact) while benefiting from modern manufacturing and a selection of high-end components. Within the Warm Audio range, it positions itself as a characterful microphone, both robust and musical, designed to become a \u003cstrong\u003ecentral tool\u003c\/strong\u003e in studio recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFor Whom and What: Vocals, Kick Drum, Amps, and Demanding Recordings\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThanks to its \u003cstrong\u003ecardioid\u003c\/strong\u003e polar pattern and FET design, the WA-47F excels on sources that require both \u003cstrong\u003eattack\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003econtrol\u003c\/strong\u003e. On a kick drum, it emphasizes punch and definition without collapsing under acoustic pressure. On vocals, it favors clarity and the reproduction of micro-dynamics, helping the performance stand out in a dense mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is also very well suited to guitar and bass amps, brass instruments, percussion, and more broadly any situation where a microphone capable of handling high levels with exemplary \u003cstrong\u003eprecision\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003estability\u003c\/strong\u003e is needed. In cardioid mode, it facilitates source isolation and limits bleed, which is valuable for live studio or untreated booth recordings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures and Design Choices: Headroom and Fineness\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eA K47-Style Capsule and Detail-Oriented Electronics\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe WA-47F is built around a gold large-diaphragm capsule with a \u003cstrong\u003eK47\u003c\/strong\u003e design, offering a rich and defined sound with natural presence and fine transient detail. This approach is reinforced by electronics selected for musicality and coherence: high-quality Fairchild transistors and Wima and polystyrene capacitors, common choices when aiming for a clean, stable, and nuanced signal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTAB-Funkenwerk (AMI) USA Transformer: Depth and Authority\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eTAB-Funkenwerk (AMI) USA\u003c\/strong\u003e output transformer contributes to the microphone's signature by providing a sense of density and solid foundation while maintaining good definition. Practically, this translates to tight lows, clear mids, and a useful sense of energy on percussive sources and vocals that need to stay upfront.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003e-10 dB Pad and 140 Hz High-Pass Filter: Adapting the Mic to Placement\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003e-10 dB pad\u003c\/strong\u003e increases headroom to fully exploit the microphone close to very loud sources without sacrificing attack. The \u003cstrong\u003e140 Hz high-pass filter\u003c\/strong\u003e is a direct ally against vibrations, proximity effect, and overwhelming low end: ideal for cleaning up an overly bass-heavy vocal, stabilizing an acoustic guitar recording, or securing a kick drum capture depending on placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrequency response\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e40 Hz - 16 kHz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCategory\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003estudio microphone\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDirectivity\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003ecardioid\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCapsule\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eLarge Diaphragm\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eConnection\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eXLR\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eGrey\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePolar pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003ecardioid\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum SPL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e137 dB\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput impedance\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e150 Ohms\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePad\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e-10 dB\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-pass filter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e140 Hz\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMicrophone dimensions (H x diameter)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e203 x 70 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e900 g\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Warm Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54358269657363,"sku":"366836","price":657.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/934b37fd82042fd9125487928c5d286e5d3cba8e_WA_WA_47F.jpg?v=1788183045","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/warm-audio-wa-47f-366836","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
