Cloudlifter CL-2

I bought the Cloudlifter 2 after watching a video on YouYube to get the most from my Focus Scarlett USB audio interface.It's undoubtedly a well-built bit of kit and looks good. I set everything up with a friend, and we made some recordings. Neither of us could notice any difference in the quality of the recordings; maybe it would make a difference if you were using very cheap mics, yet if that's the case, you'd be better off buying decent quality mics for less money.The Cloudlifter 2 didn't appear to improve the sound going through our Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen USB Audio Interface. It only made the setup more complicated with more leads to connect.I haven't used it since; I leave it lying around as it looks cool. I should have sent it back for a refund as it's not needed. I doubt anybody with the funds to afford the Cloudlifter 2 would be using cheap mics that are so bad you need to buy one of these if they were serious about recording.An expensive but not needed gimmick unless you are out to impress someone who doesn't know anything about sound engineering.
