The perfect interface for singer/songwriters

Compact, portable, studio-grade sound. The Scarlett has long been one of the best-selling audio interfaces on the market. Thanks to its affordable price and premium-grade sound, the Scarlett series has been a fan favourite of many musicians, from beginners to professionals. The new and improved design features revamped preamps, upgraded audio fidelity, new interactive onboarding and rock-solid, low-latency USB driver.

The 2i2 features two XLR/instrument combination inputs for accommodating both a¼-inch jack connection or an XLR connection. This means you can record two inputs at the same time, ideal for artists who play and sing at the same time. It also features built-in 48V Phantom Power, allowing you to record using studio-grade condenser microphones.

New and improved preamps deliver pristine sound Focusrite continue the tradition of creating the best quality audio interfaces they can. With top class components that help their interfaces stand out from the crowd. The new third generation microphone preamps offer the best sound from a Scarlett interface yet. Exceptional dynamic range and improved lower noise performance give you true professionalism in a compact form.

Enable Air for added richness One of the most prominent new features of the Scarlett is Air Mode. When Air Mode is enabled, the preamps can reproduce the classic Air effect from the original ISA mic preamps. This Air technology is ideal for recording acoustic guitar performances or for recording vocals performances that are on the softer side.

CM25 condenser microphone – ideal for vocal recording The CM25 large diaphragm condenser microphone is designed to record everything from vocals to acoustic instruments, delivering stellar audio quality. The microphone features a cardioid pickup pattern, making it perfect for a range of applications from recording studio-grade vocal takes to string sections or guitar amplifiers. The microphone improves on its original design with a wider frequency range and improved performance. The microphones also comes complete with a 3 metre XLR cable and a stand clip for attaching the microphone to a stand.

HP60 closed-back headphones for monitoring The Scarlett Studio HP60 headphones are reference-grade headphones designed to deliver incredible detail, allowing you to monitor and mix songs with maximum accuracy. The extended frequency response and large drivers allow you to hear every nuance of the sound as it is intended, perfect for monitoring mixes and listening to reference tracks while you mix and master.
