The 47 series – rich, vintage warmth
The WA-47jr and WA-47jr Studio Essential channel the unmistakable tone of the legendary ‘47-style mic. Known for its smooth highs, creamy mids and hefty low-end, the 47 lineage has graced countless iconic records. The WA-47jr delivers this flavour with modern flexibility, offering cardioid, omni and figure-8 polar patterns, plus a high-pass filter and -10 dB pad for handling louder sources. The Studio Essential trims things down to a fixed-cardioid setup, keeping the same lush tone in a more affordable package—ideal for singers, podcasters and streamers.
The 87 series – polished clarity for every voice
The WA-87jr and WA-87jr Studio Essential continue the story with the famous ‘87-style mic sound. With a K87-style capsule at the core, these mics deliver detailed mids, sparkling top end and a professional sheen on vocals and instruments alike. The WA-87jr offers full multi-pattern control, a pad, and high-pass filter, while the Studio Essential pares it back to cardioid only—perfect for creators who want plug-and-play studio polish.
