About this item 
Passive Output Whereas the Cloud 44-A is "active" with Cloudlifter circuitry built-in, the Cloud 44 Midnight is passive for use on louder sources or when close micing is desired. 
Includes "Midnight Edition" Cloudlifter Ships with its own Cloudlifter CL-1 Mic Activator in a matching black finish, providing the option of ultra-clean gain or for use with other ribbon, dynamic, or tube mics. 
Vintage Inspired, Modern Made While the ribbon motor design remains true to the original 1930's RCA 44, everything else has been upgraded using state of the art materials, manufacturing processes and technology 
Made in the USA Cloud Microphones are 100% Made in the USA. Two year ribbon warranty and free limited lifetime warranty on all other parts.
