Soyuz The Launcher Deluxe

Key Features:

• Boosts And Adds Colour To Dynamic And Ribbon Microphones

• Adds Colour And Character To Condensers And Line-Level Signals

• Analog Signal Path With Four On-Board Transformers

Colour In Stereo

In a world full of microphone boosters and boxes, there is a surprising lack of options that offer unique and colorful sounds in stereo. The Launcher Deluxe changes that. This stereo inline mic preamp and line-level saturator expands on the winning formula of the original Launcher to give engineers and artists an indispensable tool they can use anywhere.

The Launcher Deluxe enables you to add 26dB of gain and color to two separate ribbon and dynamic mic sources or bypass the boost and just get a dose of beautiful saturation on any active microphone or line-level signal. Whether you need to boost a bland mic, spice up a sterile source, add some depth to your mixes or expand your sound in the live setting, the Launcher Deluxe can help make your audio stand out.

One-Of-A-Kind Vibes For Two

The Launcher Deluxe utilizes two separate signal paths for passing both mic and line-level signals through the unit. Each individual path features two custom hand-wound toroidal transformers and the same analog circuit that gave the original Launcher its distinct color and vibe. Unlike other microphone boosters, there is nothing clean about the Launcher Deluxe. You ll benefit from a powerful dose of stereo color, which you can control by driving your preamp as little or as much as you like.

More Options

In Saturate Mode, your Launcher Deluxe becomes more than an inline mic preamp. This new mode offers up The Launcher’s trademark coloration to any active mics, condensers or line-level source without any gain boost. While in Saturate Mode, it’s unnecessary to run phantom power to reap the benefits of the Launcher Deluxe’s color. If you’re using a condenser microphone that needs phantom power, simply engage it on your mic pre, mixer or interface and it will pass through the Launcher Deluxe to your mic.

Launcher Mode is the perfect choice for elevating any dynamic or ribbon microphone. When one or both channels are switched to Launcher Mode, simply plug your mic cable into one of two Neutrik combo jacks on the front plate of the Launcher Deluxe and connect an XLR cable from the back to your mic preamp, mixer or audio interface. Once you engage phantom power, you re now cooking with an additional 26dB of gain and color via the Launcher Deluxe. Take the strain off of your interface or preamp and enjoy the benefits of more headroom while expanding the sound of your dynamic and ribbon mics.

• Maximize Your Mic Locker
  Dynamic and ribbon mics will benefit from the extra boost and power in Launcher Mode. Condensers and active mics will get the same dose of iron and character in Saturate Mode. The Launcher Deluxe will open up the sound of any mic with a tasteful amount of color and presence. Experimentation is encouraged. No one mic will have the same result.
• Enhance Your Interface
  Most interface preamps tend to sound neutral, bland or sterile and don’t always supply enough gain and headroom for every mic or source. The Launcher Deluxe opens up your sound with a more exciting character and the option for additional gain effortlessly.
• Perfect Your Live Sound
  No matter the mic, venue or sound system, the Launcher Deluxe is gig-ready and will ensure your sound stands out with a splash of color and clarity. Bring vocals into clear focus or even run your mixer’s output through it for added distinction.
• Launcher on Everything
  Mix and match the effects of the Launcher Deluxe on both mics and line-level inputs. Spice up a stem for mixdown or add some weight to your drums. Put it first, last, or anywhere in between in your signal chain and experiment with making your sound your own.
