Description
A faithful recreation of one of the most natural and balanced tube condenser microphones of all time, the WA-CX12 captures the true sound of sources and rooms with extreme accuracy. Used over and over again by some of the world's most recognized engineers and artists, the original microphone stands out as open, airy, and natural. Pairing the CK12-style capsule with the large-core TAB-Funkenwerk USA output transformer helps the CX12 capture musical bass, organic mids, and polished high end. With no-compromise components and elite build quality, the WA-CX12 delivers that iconic sound that no personal or professional mic locker is complete without.
Features:
Known for their ability to emphasize 'musical' midrange and smooth out any high end harshness, original C12's are go-to's for capturing professional solo vocalists, piano performances, and epic, natural room sounds. A popular choice from rock, pop, jazz, and RnB, you could say that the original C12 sound is "Peppered" on countless hit records. The WA-CX 12 is a faithful recreation of a studio icon offered at a fraction of the original price - made possible by using premium components and Warm Audio's elite build quality.
The original AKG C12 has a complex history. Desperate to compete with Neumann who had a 19 year head start, AKG was created for Austria to try its hand in dominating the professional microphone game. Their first mic? The C12.
There are many versions of the C12, including many revisions by AKG over the years and the rarely found "Siemens" SM204 mies. It's important to know that the original AKG C12 built from '53 - '63 is our inspiration for the WACX12.
The original 251's, a cousin of the C12, have continued on and are deceptively close to C12s with differences in the circuit. Many describe the C12 as "less dark" in the mids. Original C12's are cited as being excellent at controlling harsh high end as well.
