WA-84 Premium Stereo Package

Precise Reproduction Of The Industry Standard

Legendary Roots

The WA-84 is a precise reproduction of the industry standard small-diaphragm condenser mic. Unlike modern transformerless recreations, vintage units are prized for the rich & detailed tone that delivers smooth yet detailed high end. Like the original, the WA-84 delivers that signature SDC sound trusted by artists and engineers on legendary recordings by James Taylor, Fleetwood Mac, Paul Simon, Steve Gadd and many more.

Clear, Focused Tone

Like the original vintage units, the WA-84 delivers open clarity with powerful noise rejection. Unlike modern reissues that skip the transformer and “update” the circuit, the WA-84 captures creamy smooth top-end and the BEEFY mid to bottom-end that made the original the studio legend that it is. The class-A circuitry, premium transformer, and meticulous design allow the WA-84 to capture precise detail in performances with professional sound isolation. The slight 8 – 10 kHz dip / 11 – 20 kHz bump smooths out harsh highs without any lost brilliance.

The carefully-crafted capsules provide the elite performance of the vintage original. The cardioid capsule has a smooth 9-10K dip to tame harsh high end while the omni capsule has a slight bump in that range to capture detailed room reflections.

The available -10 dB pad provides more headroom to record loud sources with the impressive detail of a condenser plus elite noise-rejection.
