Classic Studio Sound, Contemporary Design

Combining one of the most legendary condenser capsules of all time with carefully designed contemporary circuitry, the WA-47jr delivers rich analog warmth on sources like vocals, acoustic guitar, drums, pianos, streaming/podcast and more.

Vintage-Accurate K47-Style Capsule

The WA-47jr features a true reproduction of the vintage dual-backplate, large-diaphragm K47-style capsule found in the most sought-after ‘47 microphones. Designed with the same hole pattern and frequency response as the original studio mic using a discrete signal path with ultra-low self-noise, WA-47jr delivers a rich analog tone perfect for vocals, instruments, and more.

Selectable Polar Patterns, Pad & Filter

The WA-47jr features three selectable polar patterns: cardioid, omnidirectional, and figure-8. Multiple patterns allow for precise control over the focus of the mic, from intimate “close” tones to capturing the natural ambiance of a room. The built-in pad and high-pass filter increase flexibility by making it easy to capture loud sources and reducing unwanted low-frequency noise. Together, these features make the WA-47jr a highly versatile microphone suited for a wide range of recording situations.
