How do I use a Cloudlifter?

Place the Cloudlifter between the microphone and preamp/interface using XLR cables. Enable +48v of phantom power and turn down the gain before dialing it back up to find the sweet spot.

Why the Cloudlifter and not a cheap booster?

Our competitors add color or noise with their boost in gain while our circuits are transparent and clean. Shure licensed technology from Cloud for their new SM7dB's active circuit because it's the best!

Where is the Cloudlifter made?

Made in the USA, hand-built to last out of Arizona steel with circuit boards made on the Navajo Reservation in AZ.
