Sweetwater is offering exclusive U.S. availability of the Soyuz Silver 17, a new large-diaphragm tube condenser microphone added to the 017 Series lineup. The Silver 17 features a newly developed edge-terminated version of the original S17 capsule.
Alimited Premier Edition of 20 units is available now in the U.S. exclusively through Sweetwater. This edition includes a commemorative suitcase and numbered card. International pre-orders are available now, with general availability at dealers worldwide set for July 7.
The microphone is designed to retain the full-bodied character of the 017 Series while offering refined air and natural top-end. According to the company, the Silver 17 provides an open, articulate voice suitable for vocals, acoustic instruments, keys, strings, drums, percussion and voice-over applications.
The Silver 17 shares sonic DNA with the 017 TUBE but emphasizes presence and clarity for modern productions. The company states the upper range remains open and expressive, allowing vocals to sit forward without edge. Acoustic instruments are described as having natural detail and extension, while drums and percussion receive smooth shimmer and transient definition without excessive brightness.
For voice-over and broadcast applications, the microphone offers weight, intelligibility and polish with minimal processing. The company notes the Silver 17 is suitable for any source needing depth and space without feeling too dark or buried.
