Designed and assembled in the USA, the Cloud 44 pairs a carefully tuned ribbon element with Cloud's renowned transformer to deliver a smooth top end, rich low-mids, and the kind of effortless realism that flatters vocals, guitar amps, brass, strings, and room sources alike.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it is a passive ribbon, the Cloud 44 performs at its absolute best with plenty of clean gain - which is why this package includes a Cloudlifter to boost the signal with up to +25 dB of completely transparent gain. The result is a quiet, open, high-resolution signal path that lets the ribbon's character come through without noise or strain on your preamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBuilt for the studio and rugged enough for daily use, the Cloud 44 is a go-to ribbon for engineers who want vintage-style tone with modern reliability. Its figure-8 polar pattern makes it equally at home on solo sources, Blumlein and mid-side stereo arrays, and creative room miking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHand-built passive ribbon microphone, designed and assembled in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarm, natural, detailed ribbon tone with smooth top end\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes a Cloudlifter for up to +25 dB of ultra-clean gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFigure-8 polar pattern for solo, stereo, and room applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustom Cloud transformer for rich, musical character\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIdeal for vocals, guitar amps, brass, strings, and drums\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e Passive ribbon microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolar pattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Figure-8 (bidirectional)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded activator:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cloudlifter (up to +25 dB clean gain)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePowering:\u003c\/strong\u003e passive mic; Cloudlifter needs 48V phantom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hand-assembled in the USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eConnector:\u003c\/strong\u003e XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCloud 44 passive ribbon microphone\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCloudlifter mic activator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShock mount\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStorage case\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Cloud Microphones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46405843747013,"sku":"CLOUD-44-44CLOUD","price":1699.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/3085\/3829\/files\/51QmWoRAKCL.jpg?v=1781817883","url":"https:\/\/avlgear.com\/products\/cloud-microphones-cloud-44-passive-ribbon-microphone-with-cloudlifter","provider":"AVLGEAR","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
