One of the best vocal microphones available on the market, period! Happy owner of 017 Tube and 017 FET here.
Awesome, Dims! We're so glad to hear it.
Необыкновенные микрофоны, молодцы ребята!
Spasibo!
Its incredible to see this sort of craftsmanship in the modern era. So few companies take pride in producing a quality product that takes this level of time and expertise. Bravo.
248 holes hand drilled? I would go nuts doing that all day every single day.
@@generalawareness101 There is a special tool that is named "кондуктор" ("conductor") in russian.
@@ВаняКа-Ка I have never seen one of those. How does it work and how small can it drill if it even drills?
@@generalawareness101 You could see the conductor on 1:12 - a perforated jar with a screw cap. But usually in mass production screw caps are not used due to the length of time. Usually there is a simple hinged lid or none one at all. I dont know how conductor is called in english.
@Ваня Ка I re watched it at your time mark and I don't know either BUT I stand by what I said because they are, indeed, hand drilled even though they use a guide it is still a very monotonous job at best.
Советская инженерная мысль была одной из передовых в мире, во многих сферах. Пользуемся микрофонами Октава и сегодня. Было бы круто, если бы кто-то, возможно вы, ребята, взялись за производство отечественных цифровых кинокамер для объёмного кино. СССР был первый в мире, кто совершил прорыв в сфере стереокино (3D-кино), задолго до всех, кто сегодня снимает стереокино, была создана единственная в мире моноблочная профессиональная камера для съёмки потрясающего качества как технического, так и художественного объёмного кино, не идущее ни в какое сравнение с нынешним 3D! Было бы круто, если бы вы взялись за воссоздание этой легендарной технологии в цифре. Все наработки есть, ситуация точно такая, как с Октавой, всё есть, ума только это организовать и воли нет. Камера технологии "Стерео-70" в цифре была бы мирового спроса, как и ваши микрофоны СОЮЗ, это круче IMAX 3D, поверьте! Свяжитесь со мной.
That's very interesting! Please write to me at soyuzmicrophones@gmail.com
248 holes, astonishing, I would have impressed with only 240 holes.
😅
lol hell yeah
"I made this video to say to you: you CAN´T DO IT AT HOME... HAHAHAHAHAHA" !!!! xDD
That would be challenging😅
Master builders of microphones!
Thank you!
Astounding build. Great capture
Thanks, Nad!
Wow. Einfach wow. Danke das so ein Video geteilt wurde
Thanks, Steffan! We're glad you enjoyed it
Absolutely exquisite. Handcrafted quality.
Would you consider selling the Capsule only by itself. Where can I get one please?
Amazing!
beautiful sound comes from something beautifully made ......................
Un Poco De Todo
Wonderful...
Thanks so much!
Now I understood why these ones sounds so cool! 2 magic numbers - 67!
😭 that was beautiful
Thank you!
I want that microphone.
JZ microphones are spirited from soyuz (cccp) skills and mastery. Get one of those. One of the best Top performance per price there is.
We have one for you!😅
Awesome !
Thank you!
Why do you need to cut the face that precisely if you're just going to lap it anyway
Excellent microphones !
Thank you!
Я слышал что их еще настраивают>Интересно как ) Только при натяжении пленки или еще как то эти болтики влияюит на натяжение потом?
2μm tolerance as in surface finish, diameter, or concentricity ?
So the flatness is achieved via lapping on the plate an not by the lathe right ?
Factologist it's not lapping, it's "final grinding on a special surface!" Haha
basically, its all just marketing garbage...
Ручная притирка, плоскостность 2 мкм. Что вас так удивляет, товарищи?
Really cool, guys. Really cool.
Great video!!!
Thanks a lot
Soyuz su 017 capsule. ¿De qué color es? ¿Es dorado, no? Thank you for sharing.
Si! los backplates son hechos de latón y el diaphragm es mylar con oro
Как же я хочу такой микрофон 👍😌
я тоже((
कहा मिलेगा यह?
What is this song?
..but when do you add the stored energy to it or is it only on electret microphones. I ve heard you shouldn t touch the diaphram because of it s voltage? But I cannot see in any step where the energy is put to the diaphram before placed onto the capsule
Yes, it is only electret capsules that have to be polarized in a factory, for true condenser ones like this one the polarization voltage is supplied externally through phantom power.
And you shouldn't touch the diaphragm, that is correct, but that's simply because it is very thin and can be easily damaged, and also the gold coating can be easily rubbed off.
@@RusAD-gb9jk alright thanks for your answer.
2:23 2:47 Сделано в СССР "Made in USSR" - And that - all you need to know, Why is so perfect ;)
Это просто индикатор. Советские были качественные, но и сейчас в России их делать пока не разучились. Импортные не хуже, но если нет разницы, зачем платить больше.
Wow 🙎♂️🤷♂️👌
Every Russian machinist name is Roman...
You're not far off! But we have an Ivan and a Sasha as well 😅
@@soyuzmics lol any Boris or Vladimirs? This video is so relaxing to watch. Such precision and craftsmanship is an art form.
It might be done by digital programmed machine nicely without hand wotking.
not in our experience
Винты с шлицами и станки полувековой давности.
Прогресс?
Какой прогресс?!
Нам и на @@@ не нужон этот прогресс ваш!...
When making something good, why not make it better? Flathead screws? Only to achieve a look?
Do you think that countersunk would be better? Why?
@@ВаняКа-Ка philips, hexagon, torx... Flathead name comes from the tool type not the shape of the screw head.
@@tommibjork А, так речь про прямой шлиц? Is it about a straight slot? I do not understand english well. What is wrong with straight slot?
💟💟💟💟💟💟💟💟
только не показывайте это виде технарям...
Приму в дар данный микрофон.
Продам микрофон союз,дёшево.
@@ZOV1980 Скинь денег пожалуйста
sounds like a lot of this "precision" is bullshit marketing for people who think it magical
If only that were true, our job would be much easier😅 The acid test is always the sound. We share this just to show people the lengths we go to in pursuit of great sounding mics and because we think it's fun for them to see the processes involved.
Your first mistake is modeling your capsules after the Neumann K67, which has a harsh high frequency peak that can only be dealt with be corrective EQ. Not impressed.
Do you know what causes the capsule to do so? What capsule design would you suggest?
Какой стыд, у немцев дизайн подсмотрели и на музейной технике повторяют…. ЧПУ это конечно бездушная машина, но она же одинаково делает?) Усб уже на этом металоломе не выходит изготовить и Тулу в малазии делают… Только вперёд в прошлое!
Читаешь коммент, потом имя и вопросов к тебе не возникает =)
@@moviegear Это точно)
Know, give to Nikki Minaj!
Not so very good product. - think of it this way. Imagine your cellphone handmade by Russians Do you get it now? that is why they did not build one.
CNC makes perfect replicas of the same old German concept But these few Russian guys did not have one on hand. Chinese do it with CNC and microphone cost them 1/100 of Russian price.
1 thou is nothing special in mechanics, (Equal to 1⁄1000 of an inch, it is normally referred to as a thou) And methods of checking preferred in this video are old
Russian standards.
All of it is just marketing for people who think it magical.
Fellow Americans most of you could do it in your basement not knowing much about it.
Haas office mill + office lathe and some few tools . With 4k price range you can make return of your investment in withing 1 year, by simply calling it MADE IN USA instead of calling it Soyuz that failed along with Berlin Wall as well as most of Russian made products. And now you are ready to sale it straight to Russia for much discounted price.
You will be surprised how many Russians will buy it , as they really trust American quality over the Russian one.
You do not have to be a guru in it , your machine does the job based on software in it. Your cost of production per piece is around 16 -20 dollars.
Your initial investment might sound high but when compared to return it takes only 25(+25) microphones made and sold. And we have ~7.2 billion people in the world.
In production time (3 piece per day) it is just less than 20 days so 365-20= 345 days left for the machine to make net profit of quite wealthy person.
Do not listen to The Russian Propaganda.
Good luck

So what? In world of music quality in quantity suffers due to price range that must be adjusted to general public needs.
Think of it as gold plated Toilet Bowls .- the quality is the same as the average bowl, but due to its price quantity is small .
For "Cold Play" it was simply a deal .
Let me ask you how many times have you seen in the past 5 years mark on the product - Made in USA?
You probably did not.
Because such product is rare, pricey valuable and trusty .
Is it always true?
In 99.999% of it yes it is. And now take Russian products. most of them piece of garbage . If you find one that is not you are lucky guy.

Fellow Americans? ) You don't sound like an American, more like another illegal immigrant from ex-soviet republics who is bitter about Russia. If you think that making a reference-class mic is that easy then why haven't you done so? Why haven't you opened a factory in your basement? Because you can't and you know nothing about microphone manufacturing. As far as I can tell you are only capable of badmouthing and bashing other products based on the nationality of a person who made it. That's disgusting.
BTW these mics are used by Radiohead, Coldplay and Paramore and I doubt that they would have used a "piece of garbage" in their music production and studio work.
Dear Russian Xerxis You are absolutely wrong in your assessment .
But that is OK You are here on American RUclips , using American computer (licensed to American facilities in China) and American Windows/ Linux/Apple/Aiphone (any other software is likely Western but not Russian)
Well..USA and EU found that *"Kaspersky Software"* was made to *Spy* but advertised by Russians as *"advanced"* "protection".
And best of all , you have rights to express yourself thanks to *American Constitution* ruling outside of Russia - the country where every other law is raped and abused.
Look at my RUclips. *I'm American.*
I'm quite well , in electronics, and physics is my field and my life. (over 30 years in science).
I'm not, as you say it- The illegal immigrant from (ex-soviet), Russia who is bitter about Russia.
When Russian primitivism in mechanics is advertised , as a craft/art, that must not be replaced by Russian automation, - You should understand that there is NO Russian automation, It does not exist .
*Art of primitivism* is present in all aspects of Russian reality as *unfortunate necessity* , but *not as a choice* . or form of expression.
99% of machines are not made in Russia anymore. Even Mr. Mirzayanov who made Russian biological weapon *Novichik that kills in England* (Skripal case) run for safety , to the United States in 1995 after 30 years at sort of *concentration camp* but made for scientists : The ( "closed town- Shikhany ") - Rusian Research Organic Chemistry GNIIOKhT (and it's affiliates.)
Putin few days ago decided to change the status of facility/ town of Shikhany that was manufacturing Novitchok poison weapon from "secret camp" to "normal city." acting under the pressure of England. (the attempted murder of ex-spy Sergei Skripal along with his daughter Yulia in March.)
So automation in Russia is not the ever-present threat of hostile actors looking to inflict mayhem on our nation’s railroads. It is just technology from outside of Russia that was legally or mostly illegally transferred there, from outside world.( e.g . Siemens the German-made electricity turbine that was installed in Crimea in contravention of European sanctions. by Russians . - That is Russian fraud. )
However we - THE Western World , we may try to understand that Russian HAND-MADE MICROPHONES
are excellent Russian replication of quality of American James West and Gerard Sessler of Bell Labs
*History:* The electret was discovered by Mototaro Eguchi in 1919, Professor of Physics, Higher Naval College, Tokyo, Japan. (not by Russians), but was not used for microphones until about the 1960s, when James West and Gerard Sessler of Bell Labs invented the foil electret microphone.
We may say that Yes.. Yesss... Russians are good in it... But why we need to pay 4k per piece
if my lab or any lab traceable to American National Bureau of Standards can prove that some of 8 or 12 American dollars worth Chinese replica can do the same or better.
And this is REAL EFFECT OF AUTOMATION.
The other way to look at it is emotional in nature. - why we Americans, need to support CRIMINAL ENTITY in power , that makes even their own Russian crowd to suffer . What for?
Example: Nurse in USA NY earns ~ $87000 per year.
Nurse in Russia earns ~$189 per month
But that is just emotional aspect that may not be important to many.

@@stivep1 you totally brainwashed, my dear american friend
Этот человек имеет близкое к реальности представление о текущем состоянии российской промышленности, но он плохо себе представляет реалии промышленного производства. А в политике и экономике он вообще профан. Добиться с помощью ЧПУ себестоимости в 30 долларов возможно только при крупном серийном производстве. Но изделие серийного производства никогда не сравнится со штучным. А при штучном производстве ЧПУ оно нафиг не нужно, и даже вредно. Я работал и на том, и на том - это просто разные вещи. Хотя, конечно, моей пролетарской душе милее серийные микрофоны по 40$ а не штучные 4000$ - по соотношению цена-качество оно того не стоит.
omg the amount of garbage marketing is both pathetic and funny at the same time.
Glad you enjoyed it😅
LOL!
Such bullshit, 2 micron tolerance? On what? For what? So you think that it's necessary and to make you pay more?
IF U R making a moronic comment like this you need a carbon microphone from a 1910 telephone. This type of quality is beyond your comprehension.
I don't know, but tighter tolerances may allow you to have a smaller gap from the membrane to the backplate. The smaller the distance, the greater the capacitive changes when sound hits it, the better the signal to noise ratio?
we at soyuz found 2.17 micron tolerance was just not enough...so we rounded it to 2 micron..🎉😂😂🎉😂
Вроде это технология фирмы "Октава"...
дайте парочку!
