Description: Introducing the Vocal Chain bundle from Warm Audio, featuring the WA-8000 microphone, WA-1B compressor, and WA73-EQ preamp for a polished, studio-quality sound. The WA-8000 microphone delivers a natural open top end, clear midrange, and signature detail, ideal for vocals, acoustic instruments, and voiceover work. It uses a NOS 6AU6 vacuum tube for warmth and depth, with a custom heat sink to reduce noise and distortion. The WA-1B compressor combines smooth tube-optical warmth with precise control, modeled after a favorite of top producers. It features custom Lundahl transformers, select tubes, and a high-precision optical element for fast, accurate operation with authentic analog warmth. The WA73-EQ preamp replicates the classic British 1073 preamp-EQ, renowned for its influence on pop and rock records for over 50 years. Warm Audio’s meticulous design ensures the WA73-EQ delivers the familiar tone and sound characteristics of the vintage models. Together, the WA-8000, WA-1B, and WA73-EQ create a powerful vocal chain for professional-grade recordings.Warm Audio Modern Vocal Bundle Includes:WA-8000WA-8000 microphoneExternal power supplyIEC power cableShock mountGotham GAC-7 cableCustom hard caseWA-1BWA-73EQWarm Audio Modern Vocal Bundle Features:WA-8000Rigorously tested, military-grade 6AU6 tubeCustom transformer from Lundahl Sweden for the widest soundscape and most detailAll-brass K67-style capsule, wired straight to the tube Optimized to capture subtle nuancesExternal tube mount + heat sink that Lowers self-noise and draws heat away from internal components for optimal operating temperatureBoutique 7-pin GAC-7 tube cable from Gotham SwitzerlandIncludes hard carrying case for all component to safely transport your mic anywhereWA-1BTube-Opto Tone With Extended ControlTrue-To-Original ControlsThresholdRatioAttack & ReleaseMeter SwitchOn/BypassPremium ComponentsWA-73EQSingle Channel, Class A, 1073-style British Microphone Preamp with inductor-based 3 band EQUK-made Carnhill TransformersUK-made Blore Edwards EQ dual-concentric switch potentiometers4-position inductor-based hipass filterHand-Wired, hand-assembled19" rack-mountableOutput controlFully discreteWarm Audio Modern Vocal Bundle Specifications:WA-8000Self-Noise: 15dB (A-weighted) cardioid, 17dB (A-weighted) omniPolar Patterns: 2 Patterns - Cardioid, OmniDynamic range: 113dBAMaximum SPL: 131dB (cardioid), 134dB (omni)Frequency Range: 20 Hz~20 kHzOutput Impedance: 100 ohmsRated Load Impedance: ≥1kOhmsS/N Ratio: 76dB (cardioid), 73dB (omni)External IEC Grounded PSUTotal Weight: 13.3LbsMic Length: 7.5 InchesMic Diameter: 2.5 InchesWA-1BFrequency response @ -3 dB: 5 Hz to 25 kHzSelf-Noise:CMRR: >60 dB @ 10 kHzRatio from 2:1 to 10:1Variable Threshold: Off to -40 dBUContinuously variable attack and release times: fast-slowOutput gain: Off to +30 dBUInput impedance: 600ΩTwo bus connectors to connect multiple sidechainsMeter (VU) input, output, or compression amountLinear, low-noise power supply with toroidal power transformerWA-73EQ80dB of gain – resistor-stepped gain switchTONE button – Changes input transformer impedance for varying tonePolarity switch48v phantom powerBoost/Cut controls:Low Band: 35, 60, 110, 220 HzMid Band: 360, 700, 1600, 3200, 4800, 7200 HzHigh Band: 10, 12, 16 kHzAdditional high band frequency EQ points added (compared to vintage 1073)4-position inductor-based hipass filter: 50/80/160/300 HzXLR mic inputs (front & back)Line-level TRS inputTS Send/Receive insert jacksXLR & TRS line-level outputsDirect In, instrument input1RU 19" rack-mountableOutput level controlLED level indicationFrequency response: 20Hz - 20kHz +/-.5 dBInternal IEC 115v/230v power inlet
