Four award-winning Focusrite mic pres
The best sounding interface in its class. Focusrite's 25-years of design experience
underpins this new interface with four award-winning preamps
18 inputs and 8 outputs
All of the analogue and digital inputs you need for home multi-track recording.
No need for breakout cables - every analogue input & output has a dedicated socket
Two independent headphone outputs each with a level control
With two fully independent headphone mixes the engineer and the artist can both listen to mix levels they need
Rugged metal unibody chassis
Whether you are in the studio or on the road your Scarlett 18i8 will
not only look great, but also withstand the impacts sustained by a mobile recording rig
High quality 24bit 96KHz audio interface for Mac, PC and iPad
18i8 features professional conversion technology guaranteeing pristine audio quality and reliable synchronization on Mac, PC and iPad (or any iOS device)
Unique gain halos for safeguarding your levels
Unique gain halo indicators make it clear when you have a good
signal for recording. When the halos are green you have a good level,
and when they turn red it means you need to turn the gain down.
