microphone.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe original, released in 1960, is reverently considered one of the most beautiful sounding microphones ever made.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eWith

Warm Audio turned its attention to the godfather of large-diaphragm tube condenser microphones, you knew it had to be good. .\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eAnd it is always!\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eWith its unobtrusive, transformer-balanced vacuum tube circuitry and custom reproduction capsule, the Warm Audio WA-251 nails the huge, creamy sound of the

to exploring the sonic possibilities offered by different recording techniques.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eWith two of these great mics, you can implement stereo techniques such as spaced pair (A\/B), XY (including Blumlein), ORTF matrix, and mid-side (MS).\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFor full orchestra, add a third WA-251 for the minimalist—and highly effective—Mercury Living Presence technique: three omnis spaced across the orchestra soundstage, centered above the conductor's podium.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eSet all three channels to unity gain, adjust for the loudest musical peaks, and leave those faders alone.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eLet the conductor balance the orchestra (as nature

use.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eIn fact, you could mike an entire symphony orchestra with nothing more than three WA-251s carefully positioned in omni.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eConsidering their incredible value, you'd be wise to get two to record tracks in stereo.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eYou haven't lived until you've heard a grand piano come to life when miked with a pair of '251s.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eFor drum mics, use two WA-251s and destroy the stereo signal with a fast
