The Story
The Soyuz 023 BOMBLET condenser is perfect for capturing everything from drums to amplifiers. With its forgiving top-end, smooth midrange, and thick lows, the Bomblet complements the aggressive tonalities of brighter instruments â and vocals â without sacrificing transients or detail. Featuring a distinct blend of color and clarity.
The Bomblet is an exceptionally easy microphone to use: it captures a full, balanced sound, regardless of placement and distance. An exceptionally forgiving sonic profile makes it an excellent choice for singers seeking a warm, colorful texture that is, nonetheless, true to the source. On louder and bass-heavy sources like electric guitar amplifiers, kick drums, and bass amplifiers, the Bomblet delivers a tight, full-bodied punch that captures the low-end extension of instruments with the clarity to cut through a dense mix. In addition, the proprietary Soyuz transformer imparts a thickness and character that enhances and complements sources that generally demand accuracy: cello, upright bass, bass clarinet, trombone and so forth.
The engineers at Soyuz have spent decades studying, servicing and building classic microphones; Soyuzâ machinists are the best in the world. This unique pool of knowledge, craft, and skill â combined with the ears of numerous musicians, producers and audio engineers â has culminated in the creation of the Bombletâs custom S23 capsule. A different design than that of the 017 series, the S23 is Soyuzâ reimagining of Lomoâs Russian version of the CK12 capsule: with its thick low-end, pronounced mid-range, and detailed top-end â one that is forgiving and flatters high-frequency sources rather than exaggerating them â we believe that we have improved upon a classic.
Key Features:
- Thick low-end, pronounced mid-range, and smooth top-endÂ
- Includes 20 dB pad for loud sourcesÂ
- Custom large capsule designed and machined in-houseÂ
- Proprietary toroidal transformer imparts color and depthÂ
- Comes in a hand-crafted Russian hardwood boxÂ
- 100% handmade at the Soyuz Base in Tula, Russia
