Focusrite Scarlett Solo (1st Gen) Compact USB Audio Interface

Scarlett Solo is a compact USB audio interface featuring one award-winning Focusrite mic preamp, one instrument input, and precision digital converters. This interface joins the top-selling range of USB audio interfaces in the world, offering both a legendary Focusrite preamp for your microphone and a crystal-clear DI/line input for your instruments, such as guitar, bass guitar, and analog synths.

The precision digital converters capture your performance with studio-quality 24-bit resolution at sample rates of up to 96kHz, providing an exceptional dynamic range of over 105dB. Simply plug into your Mac or PC via USB (USB cable supplied) and start recording. The Focusrite's unique gain halos stay green when your level is right and turn red if you're too loud, helping you get your volume right every time. You can also flick the direct monitor switch to hear exactly what you're recording without latency.

Connect your headphones and speakers to immerse yourself in Focusrite-quality sound, using the large volume dial to set the perfect level. The Focusrite preamps, like the one in Scarlett Solo, are considered by many to be the best in the world and provide +48V phantom power, allowing you to use any microphone you like.

Sleek, light, and tough enough to throw into your backpack, the stunning aluminum chassis can endure life on the road. Transform your Mac or PC into a portable recording studio and plug into four decades of analog audio equipment design. Inside the box, you'll find all the software and sounds you need to record and mix music, including Ableton Live Lite, 1GB of Loopmasters sample content, the Novation Bass Station virtual synth, and the Focusrite Scarlett Plug-in Suite (Compressor, Gate, EQ, and Reverb).

The better your preamp, the better your microphone will sound. Focusrite preamps are renowned for their exceptional quality, and the one in the Scarlett Solo is no exception. The precision digital converters capture your performance with studio-quality 24-bit resolution at sample rates of up to 96kHz, ensuring your recordings have an exceptional dynamic range of over 105dB.

Guitars can be plugged straight into the crystal-clear DI, minimizing the risk of distortion. The Scarlett Solo is powered via USB, eliminating the need for a bulky power supply. It includes an authorization code for a suite of software and sound content, including Ableton Live Lite, the Focusrite Scarlett Plug-in Suite, the Red 2 & Red 3 Plug-in Suite, the Softube Time and Tone Bundle, Novation Bass Station, and 1GB of Loopmasters samples.
