Discover the Warm Audio WA-MPX Tube Microphone Preamp
At Terry Carter Music Store, we are excited to present the Warm Audio WA-MPX Tube Microphone Preamp. Firstly, this preamp features selectable tape saturation that adds harmonic distortion and natural compression, enriching your sound. With its classic Warm Audio tone control, you can alter the input transformer impedance, creating extra analog color that is truly remarkable.
Unmatched Performance with High Gain Control
Secondly, the WA-MPX allows for engaging high gain control, boosting clean gain from 70 dB to 90 dB for low-output microphones and low-volume sources. The 48V phantom power ensures compatibility with a wide range of microphones. In addition, the VU meter provides level indication, allowing you to monitor your signal easily. The preamp's design includes a durable aluminum faceplate and vintage Bakelite-style knobs, offering both aesthetic appeal and functionality.
Tailor Your Sound with Precision Filters
The WA-MPX is equipped with an 80Hz high-pass filter to control unruly bass frequencies. Furthermore, the 2kHz low-pass filter focuses preamp power and warmth on mids, providing added punch to your recordings.
With inputs for XLR mic, TS instrument, and TRS line, as well as outputs for XLR and TRS line levels, this preamp offers versatility. Designed with fully discrete, hand-built construction and premium vacuum tubes, it delivers an analog tone that truly stands out in your music production.
