Warm Audio WA-47 & WA-47Jr Condenser Microphones Review 

I ordered 2 today for drum overheads. I'm reading great things when used in that application.

How are they on overheads? I love my 47 jr on kicks

That's exactly what I wanted to hear, because my voice is the same way. Just maxing out soothe kind be the sollution! haha. Gonna try this!

Is wa47jr is for analog I'm confused with 47jr or at2020

Same here. My vocal technique isn’t spot on so can get some harsh sounds, but I tested this mic yesterday in the store with headphones and found myself singing and forgetting everyone around me. It’s literally the smoothest mic I’ve ever heard with no added compressor or EQ. I would say to have a secondary mic with a brighter sound for doubles or harmonies. That could hide the harshness on main vocal line but lift up certain spots.

You seem like someone from Warm Audio

@@Govinda_005 They aren't. That's just someone who really likes the gear they buy.

Glad to help! Thanks for checking out the video! 😎

Christopher Watkins Music Thanks Bro... I was thinking about buying the jr but was afraid of sibilance... Cheers

@@luisloucao477 i Can teach you how to resolve sibilants on a mix just with eq and de-esser

Do u have an audio to listen ?

Is wa47jr is for analog I'm confused to buy with 47jr or at2020 do i need to buy a amp as well??

Sound Legend Studios agreed they’re are like let’s really not give them anything. Wack. Haha

Another thing these manufacturers are people love to hide frequency response charts. Wtf are they not showing these up front. This has always made me wonder.

Sweetwater did a massive microphone shootout of 50 microphones. Including some industry staples and their most popular sellers. Includes Hi-Res audio files for download and even the Pro Tools session! Check it out: www.sweetwater.com/feature/vocal-mic-shootout/

Yeah dope for protools users. They set everything up. What about the other Daw’s? Bummer. lol. Yes i heard they still have the files available. Lol.

Payola

true, so true

Exactly. Even a cheap Chinese mic can sound ok if you avoid the dreaded "esses". Let's hear "Sunshine surely shows sideways" and see what the WA47 is made out of.

Gabrijel Prusina OK I feel cold all of a sudden

🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@zuider77 wa47 and wa47jr is made in China,lol~ a lot of 251 style mic made in us all have ss or sh sound,this is why need eq on it.

We should collaborate. I got some ideas sir. 😐✊

Name of program please @Esoteric Audiophile

Is it called EQ?

Joe Black which one

theres a reason they didnt do that. it would be night and day

@@itchik529 Wow, really? One mic doesn't hold up to another that costs 10 TIMES as much? Who would have figured.

ST would never compare products as policy, all Are valid choices...

I have never been a huge fan of the Tele reissue. It's far more open than the vintage U47s I've used. You can actually hear them next to each other now on Audio Test Kitchen. For me the FleA 47 and Heiserman 47 are closer and better for your budget than the Tele. I recently had the WA47 in my studio for about 6 months, and I have to say I think it's the best sub $1000 tube mic I've ever had in my studio save maybe my Advanced Audio CM49. Certainly the best 47 style mic at that price. I preferred it to the Peluso 2247LE I used to own. It's certainly not as refined a sound as the FleA 47 I have access to, but it's nice. I'll have my review out on that shortly.

@@EandVEntertainment Oh stop it, no one can tell anything apart on blind test 😂 Not mics, definitely not preamps, sometimes compressors if we are judging a 5k compressor against a 50$ one but even there we all failed gearslutz. 😆✌🏽

The CD can be purchased both on amazon or in the gift shop.

Lmfaooo

Maybe. but He "sings totally different, like He was shy singing with Jr what makes it sounds worse agains 47 ''better performance"

A K47 capsule (or M7) really doesn't produce peaks in the range where sibilance happens, such as you'd have with a K67 or K87 capsule with no negative feedback. You're not going to have problems with sibilance.

You can easily hear how much bigger the WA47 sounds in these samples.

Is wa47jr is for analog I'm confused to buy with 47jr or at2020 do i need to buy a amp as well

how did it break RIZE?

Is wa47jr is for analog I'm confused to buy with 47jr or at2020 do i need to buy a amp as well, ps i am avoiding nt1 because of siblances

Exactly.

BLEEDO MUSIC how do u like it?

@JDS Bleedo Bette than a tlm49 ?.or a tlm.102.103?.also would you think this or the wa47 bigger version best for rap vocals I have a real deep voice? I am also looking at a at4050 and a wa87

@JDS Bleedo thx so much str! !!!!

Hi, Andrew. Great question. The WA-47 Jr is one of my first suggestions for voice actors looking for an affordable and fantastic condenser microphone. It has a very low noise floor, which is important for voice recording, and a rich neutral sound to it. So it isn't over-hyped in the sibilance range. The full WA-47 with a tube is an excellent mic, but the tube stage adds a pretty hefty amount of noise, which makes it less than ideal for voice-alone work. You should expect a slightly more open sound stage from the WA-47 Jr compared to the SM7B, and it will be more sensitive to background noises, so watch that AC and the family pet! If you have any other questions, just give me a ring! Drake Sobehrad, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, (800) 222-4700 ext. 3271, drake_sobehrad@sweetwater.com

Have you found the answer?

Si es ma misma cápsula

Are handheld recorders just that bad or is it the environment?

Could be the inherent noise of the preamps of the recorder. Unless you have a high end handheld recorder, the noise floor of those preamps can be pretty high.

weedywet Some manufacturer in australia

Rode, perhaps?

Quanto?

EXACTLY! Smh

Hahahahahaha

Who did you want, Sinatra?🤔

No one sounds great isolated. And let's be honest -- probably setting a more realistic expectation hearing it on a mid-level vocalist.

@Murada I agree. They seem like they were designed to make you feel like you were a Adele lol

people get all caught up in the "name" of a microphone. Went in Nightwing Studios with Ron Capone - look him up, Grammy and Oscar winning engineer and producer. Sadly he's no longer with us. at any rate, he set up 57's on my Ludwig kit all around, and two overhead condenser mics that looked like they had been in a war zone. I asked "where are the Neumanns, the Telefunkens? how the hell are you going to get the awesome, grooving sounds of my Super Classics?? what is up with this?" After taking me to the mic locker and showing me all the gorgeous German legendary mics dully gleaming in the recessed lighting, he gave me this sage piece of advice: "Shut the hell up and play!" Straight into the board, my drums - with ME actually playing them, sounded like a gift from the Gods! Never before, never since has any of my kits sounded like that. Moral of the story: it ain't the name on the mic, it's learning how to listen, develop your ears. Unless you've got a Neve board, you won't notice the difference between this mic and a Neumann in the mix. If you can, and I can hear the difference in the master. call me, I wanna book time with YOU! M
