HI all, first post, long time forum lurker.
I've recently purchased the Shure SM7B and now find I need to help boost the gain to get some good level out of it. I'm currently using a Focusrite Scarlet 18i20 interface and the available gain is just ok but I'd like more headroom.
I'm wondering if the Cloudlifter CL-1 is a good option or should I spend a little more and get a Mic Pre? Most Pre's are priced to high for my home studio needs but I came across the Golden Age Project PRE-573 today and it's priced low enough that I can justify shelling out a little more for it.
Any opinions on which option is best here?
