About Cloud Microphones Cloud 44-A

If you're seeking a microphone that embodies the essence of the legendary RCA Type 44 ribbon mic with modern enhancements, the Cloud 44-A Active Ribbon Microphone is your premier choice. This high-quality, professional-grade microphone boasts an innovative figure-8 polar pattern, delivering exceptional side null rejection for pristine audio capture. Its active design is powered by a "Cloudlifter" Class A, discrete circuit, ensuring a robust and clean signal without the need for external phantom power.

The Cloud 44-A is meticulously crafted with an internally shock-mounted ribbon element, providing durability and reducing unwanted noise from vibrations. The microphone's new mount design offers a versatile 180-degree range of motion, allowing for precise positioning and optimal sound recording in any studio setup or live performance environment.

As the first and only active ribbon microphone with switchable Voice/Music response curves, the Cloud 44-A stands out in its versatility. The Voice setting instantly tailors the frequency response to reduce the bass proximity effect and minimize rumble when close to the source, making it ideal for clear and articulate vocal recordings. Conversely, the Music setting allows for a full bass response at close proximity, capturing the warm, rich tones of acoustic instruments and the unique character of a human voice with that special ribbon microphone warmth.

Whether you're recording in a professional studio or performing live, the Cloud 44-A Active Ribbon Microphone is engineered to deliver unparalleled audio fidelity with a touch of vintage charm. Its durable construction and innovative features make it a reliable and versatile tool for any audio professional looking to capture sound with clarity and depth.
