This WA-84 Stereo Pair with Omni and Cardioid Capsules package contains 4 custom vintage-style capsules that emulate classic component design techniques. 2 of the capsules included are cardioid directional, and the other 2 are omnidirectional. The WA-84 capsules are carefully manufactured by an Australian capsule supplier and are precisely reproduced to vintage specifications. We are pleased to offer such high-quality capsules in this microphone package allowing us to nail the sonics of the most important component of any microphone's sound.

Key Features:

• Like the original vintage 84-style mic, the WA-84 includes all the features that deliver a complete and professional recording experience.
• The carefully crafted cardioid capsule provides the elite performance of the vintage original - with a smooth 9-10K dip that prevents overly harsh high end - especially important for cymbals!
• Unlike modern transformerless reissues, the WA-84 uses a custom USA-made CineMag transformer that helps deliver rich detail, clear top-end, and tight bottom end of the original mics without losing that unmistakable ‘analog’ sound.
• The WA-84 proudly utilizes WIMA, polystyrene, and tantalum through-hole capacitors throughout the whole circuit for ideal signal transfer from capsule to transformer.
• The available -10 dB pad provides more headroom to record loud sources with the impressive detail of a condenser plus elite noise rejection.
