Hi
In this episode I will take a look at a new microphone from Warm audio (WA44). I will compare the WA-44 against the AEA R44CE. It's not a fair comparison as the AEA R44CE cost four times more then the WA44.
I love ribbon microphones, but it is possible to catch the sound from the old 44-series microphone?
Feel free to comment.

To me, the AEA is just so much smoother. The Warm has some odd telephone-y buzz and a weird sort of sizzle in the 3-4k range. I’m sure that could be mitigated with EQing but the AEA is just velvet.

I totally agree, I will not sell my AEA R44CE, its sounds wonderful. However for its price, WA44 sounds great, warm and dark like a really nice ribbon mic.

Yes absolutely! For its price, the WA44 are really great. AEA has more air, that's what I hear.

Listening on my Nokia, i think they sound very simillar, never seen a ribbon mic, but it sounded great. Would be curious how it aligns to like a cheaper dynamic mic.

Hi thanx for watching my channel, yes you are right about that, this microphones sounds alike, however if you listen in good headphones or speakers you can hear differences. So do you have suggestens of any cheap dynamic mic, maby I can do a new test in a future episode.

@@kingsgaterecording Your absolutely right, i should’ve listened on my speaker, and i will. For test i can recommend the Shure SM58-LC, that one i have at home, i also like how it sounds. But you can go cheaper ones like the Behringer SL-84C.
