If you've been shopping for a studio microphone—drop everything.
Warm Audio just announced a giveaway of sorts, exclusively on Reverb: a "Mystery Box" that guarantees a mic of greater value than what you pay ($249) and may include a mic of up to $1000 more ($1299).
Sound too good to be true? I know, right? But—I don't think it is... According to the listing, "you’ll receive one of Warm Audio’s most popular studio microphones, ranging from the Jr Series of streamlined studio classics ($299) all the way to our flagship WA-8000 ($1299), with the possibility of everything in between including our WA-87 R2 ($699) legendary studio vocal mic, to the WA-44 ($1199) classic ribbon mic, to a stereo pair of Fen-tone mics ($1299)."
Breaking It Down
Let's break that down. The minimum value you're going to get out of your Mystery Box is a $299 microphone. That's already a sweet deal (+$50 value). BUT you could also score a mic of much higher value.
Now, I don't know the volume of each microphone model shipped. If they shipped, say, 100 Jr Series mics and one pair of Fen-tones, one WA-8000, etc, the odds wouldn't be that great (but still not terrible!). But if they're shipping an even distribution of these models, then your odds of winning a much more valuable mic are pretty high. So I say, go for it! (Disclaimer: I do not claim to know the odds. But I do know for sure that 100% of entrants will win at least a $50 value.)
Wait—there's more(?!). ONE lucky Grand Prize winner will receive a box with every single mic from the Mystery Box lineup (13 total!). That is a value of $11,687—a veritable studio arsenal that would be the envy of any engineer.
