DI & Microphone Activator With Variable Impedance

Elevate Your SoundThe Cloud Microphones Cloudlifter CL-Zi 1-Channel DI and Microphone Activator helps you get the best possible audio output from your low-output dynamic and ribbon microphones. From stage to studio, the CL-Zi delivers up to +25dB of gain for lo-Z sources and XLR mics with up to 12dB for 1/4" instruments and hi-Z sources. This works with your preamp to amplify your signal for clear, transparent recordings. With this model you can adjust the input impedance to get the most our of your microphones. When using Cloudlifter CL-Zi in your set up, you will gain full advantage of your favourite ribbon mics and other low-output dynamic microphones of your choice along with any 1/4" jack instruments.
