Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 Audio InterfaceHoused in an award-winning and
attractive anodized aluminum unibody chasis. View largerFocusrite’s Scarlett
2i2 is a 2 in/2 out USB recording interface featuring two award-winning
Focusrite preamps. Housed in an attractive anodized aluminum unibody chassis,
the interface not only sounds fantastic but looks great too. What’s more, it’s
solid enough to take on the road when you travel.The Scarlett 2i2 is much more
than just a pretty metal box. For more than 25 years, Focusrite has designed
some of the most popular microphone preamps in the industry. This experience
has been used to create the transparent, low-noise and low-distortion preamp
found not only in the Scarlett 2i2 but also the flagship FireWire interface,
the Liquid Saffire 56. Plenty of available headroom makes it suitable for
moving coil, condenser and ribbon microphones regardless of the source.
Phantom power is provided for mics that need it. View largerConnect and
Monitor Instrument Inputs for RecordingThe front panel Neutrik combination
input can be used to connect line and instrument level signals as well as
microphones. This makes it perfect for recording the output of a synthesizer
or stage piano, while at the flick of a switch, you can cater to the output of
an electric or acoustic guitar. Unique halo indicators let you know that
you’ve got a good signal level for recording. Red means that your signal is
clipping, and that you should reduce the gain. The halo will momentarily turn
amber as the level returns to a healthy level, at which point it will turn
green. A large monitor dial provides a tactile control for the volume of your
speakers, while a high quality headphone amp provides a clean yet loud signal
to headphones connected to the front panel socket. The direct monitor switch
routes audio directly from the inputs to both the headphone and speaker
outputs. This allows you to monitor the incoming signal with zero-latency.High
Quality Mic PreampsScarlett 2i2 features two high quality award-winning
Focusrite mic pres. With more than 25 years of experience in designing analog
equipment, Focusrite produces the best mic preamps in the industry. The
preamps found in the Scarlett 2i2 are no exception to this, and share the same
design as those found in our flagship interfaces: Saffire PRO 40 and Liquid
Saffire 56.Direct Monitor FunctionFlick the direct monitor switch on the front
panel of your 2i2 and you will hear what you’re recording through your
speakers or headphones, without the signal having to go through your computer.
This avoids the possibility of latency, which can be distracting when
recording. With 24-bit resolution at sample rates of up to 96 KHz, the digital
conversion in the Scarlett 2i2 is of very high quality, meaning that every
note and every subtle detail is captured with great clarity.Rugged Metal
Unibody Case with Truly Portable InterfaceThe anodized aluminum unibody
chassis ensures that your Scarlett 2i2 can withstand the harsh environment of
the road. It also makes Scarlett 2i2 the most beautiful interface around.
Scarlett 2i2 is very light and compact making it easy to fit in a laptop bag.
It’s also bus powered, meaning that you don’t need an additional power supply.
