From the world shaped by Soyuz, The Launcher Deluxe arrives as a well-tempered companion to beef up your sources with a sonic elegance capable of embellishing every take without going into overly labyrinthine detail. You benefit from a stereo temperament that transforms your microphone into a veritable chromatic palette, ready to give relief to your most adventurous ideas.

And when you launch into a mix or a recording that's a little temperamental, it creates a sonic atmosphere that seems to tell an audiophile joke between two settings.

Presentation
At Soyuz, we've built around The Launcher Deluxe a preamp capable of adding a comfortable 26dB of gain while giving you an assertive character thanks to the four hand-wound toroidal transformers that act like little musical anvils ready to colour your sources with an instantly recognisable charm. When you switch from a dynamic mic to a ribbon mic, you discover a different way of sculpting your signal, because the internal dual path accommodates both mic and line levels with surprising ease, giving you the impression of having a small analogue workshop housed right on your desk. And with the two modes coexisting serenely, you can move from a saturated approach to a more nervous impulse without ever losing the continuity of your idea.
The Launcher Deluxe works in two ways: Launcher Mode supports your dynamic pickups while retaining a good margin thanks to the phantom voltage transmitted by your preamp or interface, while Saturate Mode circulates your active signals without gain but with a dose of similar character that acts like a little harmonic condiment placed in the right place to awaken the slightest source. This adaptability allows you to react quickly when your plug-in lacks energy, because you adjust the amount of colour simply by controlling your input level.
The Deluxe Launcher carries 2 independent paths that facilitate stereo set-ups, because each channel reacts freely without impinging on the other, and you enjoy a pleasant way of balancing your signals with coherent coloration that fits easily into a mobile setup or on a compact mixer during an impromptu recording.

To best accompany The Launcher Deluxe designed by Soyuz, remember to choose high-quality shielded XLR cables to preserve the coherence of your audio chain, because a good link between your microphone and your preamp reduces losses and also allows you to fully exploit the variations in colour that you obtain by modulating your input level.
At Soyuz, we cultivate an artisanal approach that draws on the tradition of Tula, where each prototype passes through the hands of technicians who pay as much attention to the sound as to the mechanical behaviour of their circuits, a way of working that blends Russian precision with a nomadic spirit designed for modern creators. The brand's history often recalls modest workshops where components are still adjusted with a magnifying glass, and this identity gives the product a warm dimension that you find immediately when you start to explore its two modes.
