Soyuz - 023 Malfa Capsule

When you install the 023 Malfa capsule on a compatible body, you discover a character designed for voices seeking clear relief and precise articulation, thanks to careful shaping of the upper spectrum. You'll find an approach that favours softness despite a subtle luminous accent, creating a stable rendering in a variety of configurations, for both close miking and slightly distant sources.

You'll enjoy a capsule crafted according to the artisanal approach that has often animated the brand's workshops, where each mechanical element progresses step by step towards an unexpected overall coherence, gradually giving a recognisable sound colour. The adjustments made for this version, specifically imagined with the artist Malfa, add an aerial extension above the already precise zones, giving the cymbals, strings or residual harmonics a natural halo. The result is a capsule that fits in very well with recordings where you're looking for a more open touch.

When you're exploring different placements, the 023 Malfa capsule shows appreciable stability because its balance makes it easier to find a consistent angle, even if you vary the distances or change your acoustics. It already added a certain elegance in its early prototypes, thanks in particular to a clarified midrange that made voices and acoustic instruments more intelligible without requiring complex adjustments later on. On 023 or 017 series microphones, its rapid adaptation will accompany you in pop or broadcast-oriented projects, creating a signature that you'll be able to recognise as you go along. The whole unit remains fluid in its behaviour, even when you're working in a busy environment.
