This video has been requested a lot. Surprise surprise! With just the simplest amount of processing we defeat the purpose of the cloudlifter or fethead at all. While the Shure SM7B may have more gain requirements than your average mic, we make the issue a way bigger deal than is actually necessary. If we just use a bit of processing with our microphone setup, then your problem is solved :)
