Cloud Microphones 44 A Active Ribbon Mic

Cloud 44-A Active Ribbon Mic

RIBBON REVOLUTION

The Cloud Microphones 44-A is an active ribbon microphone that captures vocals and instruments with a natural, smooth sound. From direct RCA lineage, the Cloud 44-A microphone reawakens the spirit of the classic RCA Type 44 ribbon mic for today’s applications. Internally within the Cloud 44-A, the ribbon itself remains unchanged, handcrafted to specifications first prescribed in the 1930s by RCA’s Harry F. Olson. Everything else has been engineered anew, however, using 21st-century improvements transcending the capabilities of Olson’s time. Utilizing Cloud’s award-winning, patented Cloudlifter circuitry with its unique features and ultra-clean characteristics, the 44-A is an active ribbon mic with personality from the past plus all the strength and clarity required for today’s most demanding tasks.
