The Warm Audio WA-87 Jr. SE: A Streamlined Classic With Studio-Grade Sound

Vintage-inspired sound with modern simplicity

The Warm Audio WA-87 Jr. SE takes one of the most celebrated studio microphone designs of all time and distills it into a streamlined, cardioid-only package. Whether you’re tracking vocals, recording acoustic guitar, or streaming live, this large-diaphragm condenser delivers the kind of polished, professional results that instantly elevate any production.

Authentic capsule reproduction for timeless tone

A  single-backplate, gold-sputtered K87-style capsule separates this mic from similar products, it is a faithful recreation of the vintage ‘87 microphones revered for their focused mids and pristine highs. This capsule captures the warmth and clarity that made the original design a studio standard, now offered in a more accessible format.

Cardioid focus for clean recordings

With its fixed cardioid polar pattern, the WA-87 Jr. SE hones in on the sound source directly in front of the mic while rejecting unwanted noise from the sides and rear. This design makes it equally at home in a treated studio or a less-than-perfect home environment, providing a focused and reliable capture every time.

Studio-ready performance without the fuss

Engineered with a fully discrete signal path, wide dynamic range, and ultra-low self-noise, the WA-87 Jr. SE provides professional results straight out of the box. It’s built for creators who want the classic analog tone and studio polish without navigating complex features or intimidating controls.
