About The Soyuz 011 FET

The secret to 011 FET's unique sound lies in its custom-designed capsule. Tailor-made to deliver controlled low-end, smooth mid-range, and defined top-end, the all-new 011 series capsule features a 19mm gold-sputtered membrane.

Combined with its ultra-quiet transformerless design, the 011 FET offers a quick and articulate transient response without compromising character or warmth.

With a small, lightweight body, the 011 FET fits perfectly in hard-to-reach places like close-miked drums, making it a solid choice for the studio or the stage. Speaking of drums, the 011 FET features a built-in -10 dB pad for use with loud instruments and amps.

The 011 FET comes stock with a cardioid capsule, which sounds great in most applications. For added versatility, the 011 FET comes bundled with an additional hypercardioid capsule, allowing you to hone in on a source with minimal noise bleed. Additionally, Soyuz has plans to introduce an omni capsule for the 011 FET in the future.
