A ’251 for the rest of us
What can you achieve with the WA-251? Every studio needs at least one pair of high-quality large-diaphragm condenser mics, and the Warm Audio WA-251 is designed after a legendary one. You can use the WA-251 on anything — with world-class results. It’s simply stunning on vocals, acoustic guitars, double bass, electric guitar and bass cabs, piano, drums and percussion, strings, brass, woodwinds, and any other source you’d care to throw at it. In fact, you could mic an entire symphony orchestra with nothing but three judiciously placed WA-251s set to omni. Considering its amazing value, it would be wise to get two for recording tracks in stereo. You haven’t lived until you’ve heard a grand piano spring to life when miked with a pair of ’251s. For drum room mics, use two WA-251s and nuke the stereo signal with a fast compressor. Positively explosive!
