Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 3rd Gen 8x6 USB Audio Interface Bundle

Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 3rd Gen 8x6 USB Audio Interface

The Scarlett 8i6 from Focusrite is the compact studio solution you’ve been looking for, allowing you to keep all your hardware plugged in and ready to go. This portable third-generation Scarlett audio interface lets you set up mics, guitars and synths to start creating as soon as inspiration strikes. With improved A-D and D-A conversion, your recordings and playback will sound clear and pronounced up to 24-bit/192kHz and two independent high-fidelity headphone outputs with dedicated volume control enable flexible monitoring during recording and mixing.

Switchable Air Mode

Scarlett 8i6 provides two of Focusrite’s best-ever-performing third-generation Scarlett mic preamps with switchable Air mode to give your vocal and acoustic recordings a brighter and more open sound.

Instrument Inputs

Record guitars or bass via the two high-headroom instrument inputs without any clipping or unwanted distortion. And get creative using the six flexible line inputs – two on the front with gain control, and four fixed-line on the back allowing you to record up to six mono or three stereo line-level sources such as synthesizers or drum machines.

Loopback Inputs

A pair of virtual loopback inputs allows you to capture a stereo feed of any combination of hardware input and software playback channels – making podcasting, live streaming and sampling tasks easier.

Scarlett 8i6 is designed to stand up to days on the road and connects straight to your Mac or PC via USB cable, with no external power required.

Included Software

Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 comes with all the software tools you need to get started: two comprehensive digital audio workstations, Ableton Live Lite, three months of Splice Sounds, three months of Avid Pro Tools subscription, and Focusrite Plug-in Collective.
