The Warm Audio Fen-Tone is a premium single ribbon microphone inspired by the classic ribbon mics of the 1950s, purpose-built for capturing instruments with vintage warmth and clarity. With its sleek pencil-style body and dual-mode operation, the Fen-Tone offers high-end tone and modern performance versatility in a compact, studio-ready form. At the heart of the Fen-Tone is a 1.8-micron pure aluminum ribbon—custom-made in Japan—suspended in a rare-earth Neodymium magnet structure. This precise combination delivers a tight low-end, lush mids, and silky highs, ideal for electric guitars, horns, drums, and pianos. A CineMag USA transformer adds vintage analog coloration, while the built-in Warm Lifter 26dB JFET preamp offers increased headroom and output when needed, switchable via onboard toggle. Whether you're recording at high SPL or need pristine detail from quieter sources, the Fen-Tone performs beautifully in both passive and active (+dB) modes. Its figure-8 polar pattern ensures natural room capture and accurate instrument imaging, while its low-profile design makes it easy to position in tight spaces.
