Like the original B\u0026amp;O design, the Warm Audio Fen-tone recreates the compact, pencil-style design with ventilated sides that can easily be placed in crowded recording environments. Unlike the original, Fen-tone features modern upgrades, including a custom Japanese ribbon, rare-earth Neodymium magnet, and CineMag USA transformer to deliver the iconic ribbon tones made popular in contemporary music on electric guitars, overheads, horns, and many more sources. Fen-tone adds an all-analog 26 dB JFET in-line preamp, allowing for active use - a critical feature for using ribbons directly with underpowered interface preamps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThe Ultimate Ribbon Mic For Stereo Instrument Recording: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Warm Audio Fen-tone™ is a recreation of a classic 50s ribbon mic design with modern components, iconic tones, and feature upgrades in a stereo pair with key stereo accessories. Delivering rich detail at high SPLs, the figure-8 Fen-tone is ideal for many instruments, especially stereo guitar cabs, horns, stereo drum overheads, stereo piano setups, and more. In addition to custom, premium components, Fen-tone includes an in-line Warm Lifter preamp to add 26dB of clean, analog gain to setups with inferior or underpowered preamps.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTight Lows, Rich Mids, No Harsh Highs: \u003c\/strong\u003eFen-tone captures powerful bass \u0026amp; rich midrange, true to the sound profile of the most sought-after small-format modern instrument ribbon microphone. In addition to the bass and midrange emphasis, Fen-tone shows off its warm “forgiving” tone by taming top-end harshness above 15 kHz for smooth presence without exaggerated sibilance or harshness.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTailor-Made For Stereo Sources: \u003c\/strong\u003eFen-tone excels on loud stereo sources that require detail while handling high SPLs, like dual electric guitar cabs, drum overheads, pianos, and groups of horns.

That means that Fen-tone will pick up what is directly in front of it and behind it. This feature is great for recording two acoustic instrumentalists facing each other, playing into either side of the mic without picking up as much bleed as other microphone designs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHand-Inspected \u0026amp; Tested at Warm Audio HQ in Austin, Texas:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carefully inspected at Warm Audio Headquarters in Austin, Texas by trained engineers \u0026amp; musicians with a passion for helping you sound your best.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTech Specs\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003e2x Instrument Ribbon Microphones WIth In-Line 26dB Preamp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eCustom CineMag USA Transformer \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003ePowerful Rare-Earth Neodymium Magnet \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003e99.1% Aluminum, 1.8-Micron thick Ribbon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eSelectable 26dB In-Line Warm Lifter Preamp (Phantom Power Required)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003ePolar Pattern: Figure-8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eFrequency Response: 30 Hz-15 kHz (+\/- 3db)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eMax SPL: 148dB (1kHz≤1%T.H.D)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eOutput Impedance: 300 Ohms (Passive) 150 Ohms (Active) \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eS\/N Ratio: 87dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eSensitivity (Passive): -47 dBv Re. 1v\/pa | (Active): -21 dBv Re. 1v\/pa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eL: 6.7” | W: 1.5” | Weight: .67 lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eIncluded Accessories: Heavy-Duty Flight Case, (2X) Mic Clips, \u0026amp; (2X) Protective Mic Socks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePopular Uses\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eStereo Electric Guitar Cabs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eStereo Drum Overheads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eStereo Piano\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eStereo Acoustic Guitars\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eStereo Horns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-level=\"1\"\u003eStereo Strings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Warm Audio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47950410023149,"sku":"WA-2FT","price":1999.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0085\/8118\/5613\/files\/aokbt7wh1pkavtrukq5u.png?v=1744149117","url":"https:\/\/musiccitycanada.com\/products\/warm-audio-wa-2ft-fen-tone-instrument-ribbon-microphone-with-selectable-in-line-preamp-stereo-pair","provider":"Music City Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
