Description
Meet the WA-412
Warm Audio’s WA-412 is a four channel preamp that offers a classic console sound. Paying homage to API’s 312 preamp, Warm Audio uses original op-amps inspired by the legendary 2520 op-amps, and high-quality ALTRAN transformers. Having independent input and output gain for each channel, the WA-412 allows you to saturate the signal at either the input transformer or the output transformer. This offers a wide range of tonal flexibility for any number of uses. HI-Z input is also available for every channel, allowing you to get the sound of a classic console on your DI inputs.
WA-412 In One Take:
- -20db pad
- HI-Z switch
- Polarity switch
- Phantom power
- Meter display
- XLR and TRS balanced outputs
- 115v/230v AC Voltage selector
- Op-amps not potted for better heat transfer
Tone Switch
Unique to the WA-412 is its tone switch, which is available for each channel individually. When disengaged, the signal still travels through high-quality components, maintaining a classic console tone, with a transparent sound. When engaged, this switches the input impedance from 600 ohms to 150 ohms, resulting in more coloration and character.
