Unlock the full potential of your microphones with the Cloudlifter CL-X Transformer Mic Activator. Designed to elevate the performance of dynamic, ribbon, and tube microphones, the CL-X is a groundbreaking tool for recording studios, live performances, and broadcasting.

Revolutionary Gain Technology
The CL-X offers up to +36dB of ultra-clean gain. This revolutionary technology is ideal for using low-output microphones to capture quieter sources like acoustic instruments, podcasting, and ASMR. Experience pristine clarity and detail, even in challenging gain-required situations.

Custom Transformer for Dynamic Character
In collaboration with CineMag, we've developed a custom nickel transformer that dynamically responds to your signal. It adds a touch of saturation and harmonic content, enhancing the vibe and character of your recordings.

Versatile Attenuator for Diverse Applications
The CL-X features a selectable output attenuator, allowing you to reduce the gain by up to 12dB. This flexibility is perfect for capturing louder sounds like snare drums or guitar amps without sacrificing the transformer's unique character.

Capture Every Nuance and Detail
Cloudlifters are known for dramatically increasing microphone sensitivity. With the CL-X, you can capture every nuance and detail of quieter sources, showcasing the true character of your microphone.

Enhanced Mic Performance Without Compromises
The CL-X's patented ultra-clean gain circuit eliminates noise and coloration. It allows preamps to operate at lower gain levels, reducing noise floor and distortion, and enhancing the natural sound of your microphones.
