Presentation
The Warm Audio WA-FT Fen-Tone captures the aesthetic of a 1950s ribbon microphone while adding modern touches for optimized use in today's recording environments.
Its compact pencil-style design with vented sides allows for easy placement in tight spaces, making it an ideal choice for studios short on space. The custom-made 1.8-micron Japanese ribbon offers a frequency response of 30 Hz to 15 kHz, ensuring detailed and accurate sound capture.
This microphone is a valuable ally for recording high-dynamic range sources, perfectly capturing the nuances of each sound source.
The WA-FT Fen-Tone not only boasts a vintage look, it is also equipped with cutting-edge technologies for quality recording. The Warm Lifter preamp with +26 dB gain allows it to be used with modern audio consoles and interfaces without fear of quality loss. Thanks to its figure-8 pickup pattern and passive design, this microphone offers precise sound capture while maintaining low self-noise with a signal-to-noise ratio of 87 dB.
Whether you're recording electric guitars, drums, or even piano, the Fen-Tone will deliver the warmth and depth typical of classic ribbon microphones.
