Cloud Microphones Cloudlifter CL-1 Mic Activator

The Perfect Clean Signal Boost

The Cloudlifter CL-1 is a staple in almost any studio, it provides up to +25dB of clean, transparent gain to your dynamic and ribbon mic signals so you can get the most out of any mic! Cloudlifters drastically improve performance of passive microphone signals so you can get stronger signals and run longer cables without worrying about having too much noise.

The Cloudlifter uses discrete JFET circuitry to deliver clean gain without colouring the sound, just send +48v phantom power from your mixer and you can let the Cloudlifter do the rest.

A Studio Staple

Here at GOBIRD, we use cloudlifters every single time we bring out our ribbon microphones, and our pair of CL-1s get used in almost every session at Cordial Studios. They're a must have for ribbons and low output dynamic mics!

Cloudlifters are recommended for improving the signal to noise ratio and performance of passive microphone/preamp combinations with the following:

• Recording direct into a DAW/interface 
• Low gain or noisy preamps 
• Passive ribbon microphones 
• Low-output dynamic microphones 
• Miking softer sound sources such as acoustic instruments and voice 
• Long cable runs (output)

Features:

• Gives passive mics up to +25dB additional active output 
• Provides 2 distinct stages of ultra-clean gain 
• Easy to use self contained design requires only phantom power 
• Recommended for use with all passive dynamic microphones 
• Compatible with tube, battery, or power supply driven microphones.
• Safe for all passive ribbons with no transfer of phantom power
• Class A, Discrete JFET circuitry 
• Ideal impedance loading for optimal performance @3Kohms 
• Rugged and portable for studio, stage and broadcasting
• Handcrafted in the USA
