Each microphone is meticulously engineered to recreate the unmistakable sound profiles of the classic ‘47 or ‘87-style studio microphones. To achieve this, all four models are built around the exact same professional mic capsules as their flagship Warm Audio studio counterparts, delivering true classic tones at affordable price points.
The 47 Series: Rich Analog Warmth with Timeless Studio Tone
Both the WA-47jr and the WA-47jr Studio Essential follow in the footsteps of the legendary ‘47-style tube microphone—revered for its smooth highs, rich midrange, and full low-end character. Modeled after the flagship WA-47 tube mic, these FET-based designs offer the same unmistakable sonic character in a modern, transformerless format. At the heart of each mic is Warm Audio’s vintage-accurate K47-style capsule, delivering the lush, analog warmth found on countless iconic recordings.
The current WA-47jr features a dual-backplate K47-style capsule and offers modern flexibility with three selectable polar patterns (cardioid, omni, figure-8), a -10 dB pad for capturing loud sources, and a 70 Hz high-pass filter for reducing unwanted low-frequency noise. Combining one of the most sought-after, vintage condenser capsules of all time with carefully designed contemporary circuitry, the WA-47jr delivers rich analog warmth on sources such as vocals, acoustic guitar, drums, pianos, streaming, podcasts, and more. To fit the needs of all creatives, the WA-47jr is complete with a professional shockmount, hard mount, and leather storage pouch.
The new WA-47jr Studio Essential (SE) retains the same core tonal profile, using a single-backplate version of the K47-style capsule in a streamlined, fixed-cardioid design. With the same ultra-low self-noise, wide dynamic range, and fully discrete signal path of the Jr, the WA-47jr Studio Essential delivers professional studio sound straight out of the box. Perfect for: musicians, streamers, podcasters, and voice artists who want legendary analog tone without the need for pattern switching or onboard controls.
The 87 Series: Pristine Clarity and Studio Polish
Both the WA-87jr and the WA-87jr Studio Essential recreate the iconic tone of the famous ‘87-style studio microphone—renowned for its pristine top end, detailed midrange, and polished vocal presence. Following the design of our professional WA-87 R2 microphone, these FET-based mics bring the unmistakable clarity and character of classic studio sound into a modern, transformerless format. Each mic is built around Warm Audio’s K87-style capsule, accurately recreating one of the most sought-after large-diaphragm capsules in recording history, delivering the all-time studio favorite tone found on countless legendary vocal and instrument tracks.
The WA-87jr features a dual-backplate K87-style capsule paired with a transformerless, low-noise circuit for clean, articulate sound across a wide range of sources. With three selectable polar patterns (cardioid, omni, figure-8), a -10 dB pad for capturing loud sources, and an 80 Hz high-pass filter for reducing unwanted low-frequency noise, it’s a versatile tool for lead vocals, acoustic instruments, drums, and more. With a professional shockmount, hard mount, and leather storage pouch, this mic is right at home in a pro studio or a personal setup.
The WA-87jr Studio Essential simplifies the design while preserving the core tonal qualities of the WA-87jr. It uses a single-backplate version of the same K87-style capsule to deliver crisp high-end detail and a clean, focused midrange in a fixed-cardioid format. With the same ultra-low self-noise, wide dynamic range, and fully discrete signal path of the Jr, the WA-87jr Studio Essential delivers analog warmth and pristine detail. Perfect for: vocalists, voice artists, acoustic instruments, podcasters, streamers, and creators seeking professional studio tone in a streamlined package.
Like all Warm Audio products, each microphone in the Jr and Jr Studio Essential Series is meticulously hand-tested and inspected by Warm Audio technicians in Austin, TX, and comes with the industry-leading 5-year warranty.

“Many Moons,” the New Album by Trumpeter Markus Rutz

Label: Third Coast Sound
Markus Rutz & Third Coast Sounds announce Many Moons, the latest musical expression from the well-regarded trumpeter and composer.
Many Moons is the ninth album from Rutz following the recent albums Storybook (2023) and Penumbra (2024) and features music in small group recorded with contemporaries from the Chicago scene. The ensemble sound is reminiscent of Rutz’s previous Blueprints recording project, extended by more grooves, styles and compositional nuance.
The new work is a continued acknowledgment of the present frame of mind for the musician, contemplating time as expressed in titles referencing the moon and periods of time, with the original tunes By and By, Before We Met, Penumbra, and also including Time to Spare, a composition from Brice Winston. Familiar standards Blue Skies, Moondance and Blue Moon play with the album theme and concept.
Musicians contributing to this recording have a large part in creation of the band’s sound and include friends and associates from various times in Rutz’s musical life. Brice Winston plays tenor saxophone on this third project together, Sharel Cassity plays alto as a second album together and this is the first album with Greg Ward, also on alto saxophone, who plays the closing piece and contributed as producer of the album. Bassists Christian Dillingham and Samuel Peters share the bass chair for their second albums together, as is the case with Matt Gold on guitar and Gregory Artry on percussion.
Whether to find good feelings, inspiration, solace or just a momentary respite from the saturation of global events and circumstances we face, the album is intended to provide just such a soundscape. Many Moons is an invitation for you to unplug, unglue, unwind and enjoy the first album from Third Coast Sounds.
About Markus Rutz
Chicago-based musician Markus Rutz is known for bluesy, soulful trumpet stylings and gorgeous tone. Accolades and radio attention have been favorable internationally and at home nationally. As a composer Rutz brings a breadth of writing experience and diverse set of sounds to his recordings.
Track Listing: Compositions by Markus Rutz (except where noted): Penumbra; By and By; Moondance (Van Morrison); Before We Met; Asso-Kam (Joe Sample); Many Moons; Blue Moon (Richard Rogers); Denouement; On the Bosrand; Blue Skies; Time to Spare (Brice Winston).
