 RETRO 64  WARM AUDIO 

 Classic Broadcast-Style Dynamic Microphone 

The Warm Audio Retro 64 reimagines a classic broadcast-style dynamic microphone design from the 1960s and updates the sound profile for the modern stage. Built around a custom-built dynamic capsule, Retro 64 delivers the kind of tried-and-true sound that live engineers rely on night after night: consistent, articulate, and controlled in even the loudest environments. Retro 64 is designed to emphasize the sweet-spot in the upper midrange without squeal or harshness and excellent off-axis control. Retro 64 slots naturally into any contemporary FOH setup, offering the reliable response live engineers expect from a standard workhorse dynamic. Whether on lead vocals, backing vocals, guitar cabs, snare, acoustic instruments, or broadcast duties, it delivers the familiar clarity performers trust, plus the kind of on-stage vibe only a retro-inspired design can bring.

RETRO LOOK WITH STAGE-READY SOUND

The Retro 64 reimagines a classic broadcast-style dynamic microphone design from the 1960s and updates the sound profile for the modern stage. Delivering a unique combination of vintage styling with a trusted sound profile that rejects noise and feedback, Retro 64 delivers the kind of trusted, tried-and-true sound FOH engineers rely on night after night. Retro 64 solves the two biggest problems with live vocal mics: trusted, mid-focused sound, and durability. Retro 64’s capsule is tuned to hit the upper-midrange just right, while rolling off enough highs to keep speakers from squealing - just like the most tried-and-true dynamic live mics. Inside the mic, an internal shock-mount keeps the capsule safe for any live environment - mosh pits included.

THROWBACK DESIGN, RUGGED CONSTRUCTION

The Retro 64 external design is inspired by vintage broadcast mics known for their hammer-like durability, even allegedly strong enough to hammer nails into wood without harming the microphone. Modern construction methods including the addition of an internal shock-mount ensure the Retro 64 can handle anything the road throws at it. Like all Warm Audio gear, every single Retro 64 is meticulously hand-tested and inspected by trained technicians with a passion for making music in Austin, TX USA.
