Cloud Microphones Cloudlifter CL-1 Mic Activator

The Cloud Microphones Cloudlifter CL-1 provides active gain for low-output microphones such as ribbons and dynamics. The CL-1 converts phantom power into gain - up to 25dB. It does not colour the sound like a pre-amp but rather increases the presence of the microphones’ characteristics in the overall signal 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
• Utilizes Patent Pending Class A, Discrete JFET circuitry
• Ideal impedance loading for optimal performance @3Kohms
• Rugged, road ready and portable, for studio, stage and broadcasting
• Free lifetime limited warranty for parts and labour, with registration
• Handcrafted entirely in the USA

Active Gain for Dynamics and Ribbons
The Cloudlifter® CL-1 is completely self-contained, driven only by the phantom power from your mixer or preamp. Ideal for dynamics and ribbons alike, the CL-1 turns phantom power into the extra gain required for using passive microphones. The immediate dose of extra gain can make even a budget microphone/preamp combination sound clean and professional. For broadcasting and live sound, the active output signal of the CL-1 can prevent added noise over long cable runs. With endless uses, Cloudlifters is quickly becoming a standard workhorse solution for audio and broadcast professionals.
