The Warm Audio WA-2MPX expands the tape-era WA-MPX design into a dual-channel tube preamplifier, giving you two channels of vintage-inspired mic, line and instrument amplification for stereo recording, paired microphones or two independent sources.
Two channels of tape-era tube tone
Each channel uses a handwired circuit with custom CineMag transformers and three tubes, delivering substantial headroom and analogue colour. High Gain adds 20 dB for up to 90 dB of available gain per channel, making the WA-2MPX especially useful with low-output ribbons and dynamics.
Key features
- Dual-channel tube microphone, line and instrument preamp
- Up to 90 dB gain per channel with High Gain engaged
- Three tubes and custom CineMag transformers per channel
- Tone control switches input impedance between 600Ω and 150Ω
- Tape Saturation circuit for tape-style filtering and harmonic character
- 80 Hz high-pass filter and 2 kHz low-pass filter
- Ideal for stereo sources, paired microphones and dual-mono recording
For studios wanting two channels of classic tube-preamp character in one rack unit, the WA-2MPX offers a flexible route from clean amplification to deliberately coloured, saturated recording tones.
