Warm Audio WA12 MKII Discrete Microphone Preamplifier
Estimated delivery in Italy between 7 and 9 July
Discrete Microphone Preamp with DI
Many preamplifiers on the market do an excellent job of increasing the volume of microphones and instruments. Unfortunately, many preamps only do exactly that: increase the volume. The design of today's "super clean" preamplifiers often leaves the output signal exactly identical to the input. If you're looking for a preamplifier to enhance and shape your signal, the Warm Audio WA12 MKII is definitely the perfect solution, as it's designed to shape the sound of instruments and vocals with a warm and enveloping tone. If your mix lacks depth or simply a professional touch, it's very likely you'll love this WA12 MKII.
