* Prices may vary. Check retailer for current pricing and availability.
The Cloudlifter CL-2 is a clever little device that gives weak mics a significant boost, especially those ribbon mics that need a little extra juice. It’s a really clean gain stage – no added color – and a great solution for engineers working with vintage or lower-output microphones, but it’s not a magic bullet for every recording situation.
