Warm Audio WA-RA – All-Analog Studio Re-Amper With Independent Preamp & Re-Amp Signal Paths

The Warm Audio Reamper is a creative routing hub that lets guitar amps, pedals, synths, and studio gear work together, with silent tube amp recording built in. Re-amp dry DAW signals with any of your

favorite tube amplifiers. Add any studio gear to your guitar chain, or add any guitar effects to your typical studio chain - easily. Use the built-in power soak to record tube amps up to 50W (8Ω impedance) without engaging the speaker for silent tracking. Not limited to just guitar, add any synth modules to line-level sources as well and craft the ultimate experimental tones with any type of effects processors.

Add Life To Dry Guitar Tracks With Real Tube Amps: Take dry guitar tracks straight from your DAW and feed them directly into your favorite tube amps via the Reamper. Not having to play the part during the re-amping process means endless tweaking and sound-crafting possibilities.



Independently Track Dry & Tube-Amp Signals: Use the multitude of connections on Reamper to record with your favorite tube amps for confidence, feel, and response while also simultaneously capturing a “bail-out” dry signal for the session that can be re-amped or run through amp sims later in the mixing process. Reamper also works for integrating keyboard/synth gear and works for active and passive connections.



Track Loud Amp Tones Quietly At Home Or In The Studio (50W/8Ω): Get the most out of your 50W tube amps regardless of time of day, or how many neighbors will complain. Reamper has a built-in 50W/8Ω power soak, allowing you to record the pre and power amp without connecting a speaker. Easily monitor the signal through headphones connected to your audio interface.



Seamlessly Add Guitar Pedals To Line-Level Studio Rigs: Seamlessly integrate unbalanced guitar effects into balanced, line-level signal chains. All of the cool delays, reverbs, tremolos, or ring modulators can be easily added to vocal chains, drum busses, and much more.



Use Line-Level Rack Mount Effects Units On Guitar Chains: Any line-level balanced studio rack gear can be added directly into your guitar recording chain during recording or re-amping. Whether it’s a compressor, EQ, or digital reverbs and delays, Reamper makes translating guitar chains to studio chains simple.



Built To Professional Studio Standards: Reamper includes USA-Made CineMag transformers on the input and output stages and a custom heat sink to manage the power soak for silent recording. Like all Warm Audio gear, Reamper is loaded with premium electronic components throughout the signal path.



5-Year Warranty: Like all Warm Audio gear, every single WA-RA comes with a 5-year warranty and is meticulously hand-tested and inspected by trained technicians with a passion for making music in Austin, TX USA.
