Warm Audio WA-412 Four-Channel American Mic Preamp
Introducing the Warm Audio WA-412: A 4-channel classic American console preamp in a sleek 1RU design, renowned as "the sound of Rock n' Roll" for its powerful low end and smooth top end. Offering an exceptional price/performance ratio, it outshines pricier alternatives. Boasting fully discrete socketed 6-pin opamps and custom Altran USA transformers, the WA-412 is your go-to for multiple channels of world-class tone at an affordable price.
Loaded with Features
Expect everything you'd want from this preamp style and more. Each channel includes Output Trim for precise control and creative gain staging. The Tone switch (transformer input impedance) allows you to toggle between a warm, punchy classic console tone or a more open and neutral sound.
Top-Quality Components
Each channel features a discrete socketed 6-pin opamp, swappable for customization. Known for high headroom and low distortion, the discrete opamp circuitry contributes to the coveted sound of classic console preamps. Proudly made in the USA by Altran, the input and output transformers were carefully designed to extend low-frequency response, utilizing a vintage winding technique for a distinct, smooth character. The result is the WA-412: a remarkable four-channel preamp/DI, performing at the highest levels while infusing your signal with vintage console magic.
