Cloud Microphones is committed to delivering pro-quality audio with their microphones that feature clean gain and preserve the tonal quality of any audio source.

History of Cloud Mics Founded in 2009 by Rodger Cloud, Cloud Microphones’ mission was to revolutionize the audio industry with state-of-the-art tools for dynamic and ribbon mics. They started their journey with the invention of the Cloudlifter, an inline microphone preamp that ensures clean gain for improved clarity and output. This device set new industry standards as it enhanced low-output mics without coloring its tone. Cloud Microphones eventually branched out to build their own ribbon microphones. Their first hit was the Cloud 44-A active ribbon microphone which was a modern tribute to the classic RCA 44 series. The 44-A combined vintage ribbon mic characteristics with contemporary technology, making them reliable for modern settings. Today, Cloud mics are celebrated globally for their superior sound quality, making them staples in studio recordings, live performances, and podcasting rigs.
