Description
Brings All of the Clean Gain & Vari-Z Control of the Cloudlifter Z to an Active DI
Variable Impedance Control
Variable impedance control - Vari-Z - to shape and contour your tone, whether you are using a microphone on a cabinet or going direct with your bass, guitar, or keyboard.
Variable High-Pass Filtering
Continuously variable high-pass filtering @ -6dB per octave works in tandem with the variable impedance control for even greater tonal shaping.
Variable Gain
Three settings yield up to +25dB of ultra-clean gain for XLR microphones and up to +15dB for 1/4" inputs like bass, guitar and keyboards.
Combo Input
Compatible with 1/4" Hi-Z instrument inputs and XLR Lo-Z microphones via the Neutrik Combo Input Connector.
Premium Electronics
Patented Class A, discrete JFET circuitry and Hi-Z to Lo-Z premium CineMag instrument transformer for pristine sound.
Made in the USA
Rugged, road-ready, and portable. Manufactured responsibly in the USA. Free lifetime limited warranty.
Plug in, set the gain, & turn the Vari Z knob to dial in your ideal tone.
Going direct just got a whole lot more fun!
