Samson HighRise Mono Active Microphone Booster

Boost the Power of Your Low-Output Microphone
The Samson HighRise Mono Active Microphone Booster is a compact and powerful inline microphone signal booster designed to significantly improve the audio quality of low-output microphones. Whether you're a podcaster, musician, live streamer, or voice-over artist, the HighRise ensures your microphone delivers a professional-sounding, clear, and powerful signal.

Unleash the Potential of Your Microphone
Many microphones, especially passive ribbon mics, have a naturally low output level. This can make it challenging to achieve a strong enough signal for recording or live performance. The HighRise acts as a pre-preamp, providing a selectable gain boost of up to +30 dB. This extra boost strengthens your microphone's signal, allowing you to record at optimal levels without cranking up the gain on your mixer or preamp. This significantly reduces unwanted noise in your recordings for a cleaner, more professional sound.

Tailored for Exceptional Audio
The HighRise offers more than just a simple gain boost. It features a high-quality, Class-A pre-amplifier that delivers pristine, transparent audio. Choose between a +20 dB or +30 dB gain setting for clean amplification. Additionally, a dedicated +20 dB high-frequency boost setting adds extra presence and clarity to vocals.

For improved clarity and reduced background noise, the HighRise includes a selectable low-cut filter. This filter eliminates low-frequency rumble and hum, ensuring your microphone captures only the desired audio.

Safe for Your Delicate Microphones
The HighRise is phantom powered, eliminating the need for additional power supplies. Crucially, it does not supply phantom power to the microphone itself. This makes it perfect for use with passive ribbon microphones, which can be damaged by phantom power.

Built to Endure: Roadworthy and Reliable
The HighRise is housed in a rugged, 14-gauge steel enclosure. This compact unit is built to withstand the wear and tear of constant use, making it ideal for both studio and live performance environments.
