Many people have talked about whether or not you need microphone inline amplifiers like the Cloudlifter CL-1, The sE Electronics "Dynamite" DM-1 and the Triton Audio Fethead but few have run the tests to see if they really are necessary. In this video, I do just that.
I use various devices and plugins to determine this. From tone generators to the Waves Loudness Meter VST, you'll see me record samples and analyze results over and over again until we determine once and for all if they are really necessary.
It should be noted that if you were to apply an 80Hz roll off to the MixPre-6, Cloudlifter or Fethead recording then you'll likely see a noise floor similar to that of the sE Electronics DM-1.
