Soyuz - 023 Malfa Deluxe Limited Edition

The 023 Malfa Deluxe mic from Soyuz features a retuned MALFA capsule that brings natural articulation to vocals, ideal for main tracks and overdubs. Its extended response above 15 kHz enhances cymbals and acoustic textures without aggression. The FET body, combined with a proprietary toroidal transformer, ensures smooth dynamics and a balanced sound, even with sources close to saturation level. The cardioid pick-up pattern limits room noise while capturing the subtle nuances of every performance. This mic lets you capture every detail with clarity and musicality, while retaining the warmth typical of Soyuz mics.

Each 023 Malfa Deluxe comes with an interactable -20 dB pad module that makes it easy to work with high-level sources, and a carefully machined wooden case to protect your mic when travelling or in storage. The exclusive design, with its Malfa badge and satin black mid-section, gives your studio a distinctive look while offering ergonomics designed for everyday handling. The 33mm gold-plated diaphragm ensures a detailed and balanced capture of timbre, allowing vocals and instruments to breathe in the mix without any harshness, while maintaining a precise and natural sound image.

With only 25 units in the world, the Soyuz 023 Malfa Deluxe is a collector's item and a rare creative tool for producers and engineers. Its midrange articulation and superior 'air' bring acoustic instruments, vocals and drum overheads to life, even in complex arrangements. The combination of the MALFA capsule with the FET body of the 023 series offers astonishing versatility, making it possible to adapt to different styles and sound sources while retaining a rich, open and flattering soundstage.
