The black Soyuz 1973 is a large-diaphragm condenser microphone designed for recording applications. It's suitable for vocals, guitars, pianos, and more. Based on soviet-era technology, the cost-effective 1973 puts the same S23 capsule found in the Bomblet mic into a streamlined chassis that easier to position in tight places, especially when used on drums and guitars. The mic offers a cardioid polar pickup pattern by means of its dual 1.3" capsules, one of which features gold sputtering.
The Capsule
The 1973 features a version of the Soyuz S23 capsule. The S23 is a completely unique capsule with a very interesting history. In the early 1970s LOMO redesigned an AKG CK12 capsule, giving it three backplates in order to increase consistency. In 2015 Soyuz redesigned it for the 023 Bomblet and have now further adapted it for the 1973.
The Resonator
The 1973 features a custom resonator that reduces unwanted resonance and also adds a degree of plosive protection, making the mic extremely well suited for vocals, voiceovers, and podcasts.
The Pad
With both -10 and -20 dB pad settings available, this versatile mic can handle high-volume sources, including kick drums and guitar amps.
The Sound
The 1973 features a transformerless design that provides extremely low self noise. Nonetheless, it retains what many people call "the Soyuz Sound," with lows that are present but not boomy, a midrange that's forward but not boxy, and a high end that's open and airy without being harsh.
