Cloud Microphones Cloudlifter CL-Z Studio and Stage Utility Kit

When you need to quash noisy signals or lift low-output mics, look no further than this Kit, which bundles a Cloud Microphones Cloudlifter CL-Z with two different length XLR cables, delivering a useful utility for any studio, stage, or live broadcast environment. This kit is great for long cable runs, passive microphones like dynamic and ribbon mics, or use it for silencing scratchy preamps.

Cloud Microphones Cloudlifter CL-Z Variable Impedance Mic Activator

The Cloudlifter CL-Z Variable Impedance Mic Activator from Cloud Microphones is a compact, single-input solution for common audio problems in the field and in the studio involving low-output passive microphones, including ribbons. The CL-Z uses any standard phantom-powered mixer or microphone input device to provide up to +25 dB of clean gain, variable input impedance, and a variable high-pass filter. Having an input impedance control that is sweepable from 150 Ohms to 15 kOhms allows you to creatively load the microphone s output transformer, with the result being a wide range of new tonal variations becoming available to each mic.

The CL-Z improves signal-to-noise ratio and improves the performance of passive microphone signals by driving stronger, cleaner signals over longer XLR cable runs, making them ideal for broadcast, live, and studio applications. It is housed in a rugged steel enclosure which offers shielding and durability.

Variable High-Pass Filtering for Proximity Effect Control

The variable high-pass filtering works in conjunction with the impedance value, allowing for even more tonal shaping and control. When engaged, the frequency cutoff is affected by the impedance setting. This allows for a sweepable frequency cutoff range from below 20 Hz to approximately 200 Hz, just by turning the " Z" knob. This can be especially useful for tonal shaping or reducing the proximity effect of a ribbon or dynamic microphone

Variable Gain

The CL-Z has a two-position gain switch allowing for more gain, or the maximum gain available. Most of the time the MAX (approx. +25 dB) position will be used, however, the reduced gain setting (approx. +12 dB) may be useful in situations where the source does not require as much gain, or where more of the preamp s color from additional gain is desired
