Designed to capture the rich, three-dimensional sound behind countless classic recordings, it delivers the same wide stereo image and natural warmth that made the original a studio staple. With dual large-diaphragm capsules and true tube circuitry, the WA-CX24 reproduces the smooth detail that made it a favorite on orchestras, pianos, and drum overheads. Famous for sessions with artists and engineers like Elvis Costello and Steve Albini, the original’s sound profile \u0026amp; iconic multi-pattern stereo functionality is accurately preserved with the WA-CX24.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTrue Stereo Sound, No-Compromise Components\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn addition to the original sound profile, WA-CX24 recreates the critical dual 180-degree rotating capsules for exceptional flexibility to achieve precise stereo imaging in audio recordings. Independently adjusting the position of each capsule allows for error-proof stereo pickup patterns for various recording techniques, such as XY, Blumlein, mid-side, or a custom angle tailored to the sound source and recording environment. Built around dual all-brass CK12-style capsules \u0026amp; two TAB Funkenwerk (AMI) US-made output transformers, the WA-CX24 delivers professional stereo recordings with phase-coherent vocals, intricate piano performances, and epic stereo room sounds.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1475\/9390\/files\/VibeSection_CX24.webp?v=1793209637\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1337\" height=\"752\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/2GuszFs1ARg\" title=\"WA-CX24 Stereo Tube Mic Demo | Hear It On Piano, Strings, Drums, Vocals, Acoustic Guitar\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1337\" height=\"752\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/t3A54W1lozE\" title=\"WA-CX24 Stereo Tube Condenser Microphone | Product Deep Dive With Founder Bryce Young\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"1337\" height=\"752\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VF4pFf6p74U\" title=\"WA-CX24 | Faithful Recreation Of The Most Legendary Stereo Tube Condenser Mic Of All Time\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLike the original C24-style mic, the WA-CX24 includes all the features \u0026amp; functionally that deliver a complete and professional recording experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1475\/9390\/files\/KF-1.webp?v=1793209787\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRotate the top capsule up to a full 180 degrees independently from the bottom capsule to achieve error-proof XY, Blumlein, and various stereo imaging options.
