Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th Gen USB Audio Interface

Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th Gen USB Audio Interface

The Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th Gen is the completely redesigned, fourth-generation version of the world's most popular USB audio interface. This 2-input, 2-output device has been re-engineered from the ground up, featuring studio-grade converters borrowed from the flagship Focusrite RedNet series. This delivers an impressive 120 dB dynamic range, allowing you to capture every sonic detail with stunning clarity and zero background noise.

The fourth-generation model introduces highly significant smart features that streamline the recording process. The "Auto Gain" function automatically sets the perfect input level in just 10 seconds, while "Clip Safe" technology continuously monitors your signal and automatically adjusts the gain if a clipping risk is detected, protecting your take from digital distortion. The updated microphone preamps now offer a massive 69 dB gain range, easily driving even the most demanding dynamic microphones (like the Shure SM7B). The legendary "Air" mode has also been upgraded, now offering both "Presence" (adding openness and brightness) and a "Harmonic Drive" function that injects analog console warmth into vocals or instruments.
