Warm Audio WA-WL Warm Lifter Inline Active Microphone Preamp
Warm Audio WA-WL Warm Lifter Inline Active Microphone Preamp Reviews
Like you, Sweetwater studio engineers know the struggle of getting ample gain from go-to passive ribbon and dynamic mics while keeping the noise floor low. That’s why they give their mics some help with products like this Warm Audio Warm Lifter, an inline active microphone preamp designed for low-output mics that retains top-quality features for both studio and stage applications. Imagine +26dB of analog gain with true impedance matching plus a 100Hz highpass filter and a 3kHz high-shelf boost to shape your sounds before they even hit the EQ. Additionally, the Warm Lifter features an ultra-low noise JEFT input, balanced input/output signals, and it operates on +48V phantom power. Finally, it's all housed in a solid, dependable device that is more than road-ready and built proudly in the USA.
Great sound and tool
Works as intended and stays out of the way. Love the extra options of HPF and lift that others don't have.
it's all about having options
Frogville studios are very happy with our pair of WA-44 ribbon mics but decided to grab a pair of the WA-WL Warm Lifters because it's really nice to have some options shaping the sound at the mic/source before it hits the gear in the control room and waaay before it gets turned into 1's and 0's.
Good stuff
Solid piece of kit. Built well. Zero noise. Using on Shure SM57 and 58 for vocals. Only reason I took off a star is, I question how much the HPF and shelf boost add in my situation. Would buy again.
