Love the commercial
Great editing on the video 🔥👍👏
69DB of Gain, and high end A-D converters are what I've been waiting for.
Nice
Glad you updated the headphone amp. The one on the v2 Scarlett boxes is really anemic.
"Up to 69dB input gain"
Nice
Nice.
Hope the new rack mount have output metering, that was something missing from version 3.
I have the third-gen and I'm thinking I will be checking into this fourth-gen soon. Cheers guys!
its and advertisement, in reality its not good at all. it simply dies and loses output. You can record, but producing sound is something this "audio interface" seems to struggle with.
@@ElegantBass I havent had any issues since I started using it
@@ElegantBass That certainly isn't a common complaint. Are you having technical problems? If so, our Support Team can help you identify what's causing that, please get in touch.
Generally speaking, Scarlett performs very well which is one of the reasons why it's so popular.
@@FocusriteTV It seems the problems have gone away now, i have connected the usb directly to the pc (and used another cable, not the one provided), this did not help at first however the sound output is stable now and has not stopped anymore for two days straight. There are some posts of people experiencing the same problem, that is how i found the fix. sorry for my post earlier, i was frustrated, i apologize. i am quite satisfied how the interface is performing now.
We're glad to hear that you've found a solution to this. Please don't hesitate to get in touch with our Support Team if you encounter any further issues.
I need more inputs and outputs 😭 Is the 18i8 4th Gen coming? 👀
Thanks for your interest in that! We don’t have any more announcements to share for the time being. At this time we’re launching the 4th Generation of Solo, 2i2 and 4i4.
I only work with my voice from my booth. I have a Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen. Everytime I need to scream or something I have to get out from the booth and move the knob to lower the gain.
Question: This new Scarlett will let me to do my job without leaving my booth everytime I have to lower the gain?
Scarlett 2i2, and 4i4 4th generation now feature remote control preamps. This means you can adjust your gain from Focusrite Control 2 without touching the device. So this should be possible now! Let us know if this helps or if you have additional questions.
Just got my 4th Gen Solo. Upgraded from the 3rd Gen which was amazing. Quick question. Are the lights on the front supposed to stay on even when I've turned my computer off? Thanks
Happy to hear you have enjoyed your Scarletts so far. If you have the device powered from a power outlet not just the computer, then the lights may remain on even if your computer is powered down. However, this is nothing to worry about, and will not harm your interface or computer. Please let us know if this makes sense or if you have additional questions.
Great, thank you so much
Well with a commercial like this, why would I not get it?
Need help, please. Is the USB connection on the 4th Gen Scarlett Solo good? Does it snap into place like a phone cable? The 3rd Gen Solo that I bought new came with a loose connection. The cable would try to fall out when moving the interface. Thanks.
We're sorry to hear you have had trouble with your Scarlett. Scarlett 4th generation is connected by a standard USB-C cable, and should have no issues staying connected while recording. Should you have a physical issue with your device, please reach out to our support team at the link below for further assistance.

I just got the 4th gen 2i2, the usb cable snaps in very securely, no wiggle. Use a quality cable also for best results.
hi
is it possible to set tones on the control panel? e.g. emphasize more bass and listen back to e.g. music? is this device only suitable for listening to music and enjoying music?
Scarlett provides the connectivity and conversion required to accurately capture signals from microphones, instruments and line-level sources, on your Mac, Windows PC and USB-C iPad. Similarly, audio will be accurately output from Scarlett to headphones and connected monitor speakers. Scarlett and the accompanying Focusrite Control 2 application don't feature an EQ or the ability to emphasise specific frequencies but Scarlett does come bundled with a comprehensive selection of software options that can certainly be used to do that. You will have access to Ableton Live Lite, the Hitmaker Expansion and a three-month subscription to Pro Tools Artist.
thanks. are there any plans to use EQ in control 2? would be a perfect tool.@@FocusriteTV
As audio doesn't pass through Focusrite Control 2, this isn't currently possible but we appreciate your feedback on this. Focusrite Control 2 essentially functions as a remote control for the hardware. If you want to process the signal and add EQ, you can do that using Ableton Live Lite.
Which should I get? Nuemann NDH 20 (will keep my old Scarlett Solo Gen 3) ... OR ... Beyerdynamics DT 770 250 ohm with Scarlett Solo Gen 4 upgrade?
I don't know about the other interfaces but i am quite satisfied with the performance and sound quality of the scarlett solo. when connecting make sure to connect the usb to your pc and not a usb hub.
Any details about 18i20 4th gen or upcoming 4th gen interfaces?
Afraid we don't have any further announcements to share at the moment.
@@FocusriteTVso i don't wait for 18i20 4th gen. And Now I have buy 18i20 3rd gen.
What about dc coupled outputs for Modular gear ?
No, similarly to earlier generations of Scarlett, 4th Gen doesn't feature DC-coupled outputs.
Does the 2i2 have the same preamps as the 4i4?
Yes, that's right. Scarlett 2i2 and 4i4 feature the same preamp design and Scarlett Solo features a slightly different preamp. All perform fantastically and all benefit from the same outstanding conversion, direct from our RedNet interfaces.
Help hora can I activate PAD for instrument? My guitar is clipping at 0 gain 😢
Scarlett 4th gen does not feature a Pad function, so you need to find a different point in your signal chain to lower the gain. If you need further assistance, please reach out to our support team at the link below:

Can I plug this straight in to my iPad Pro with USB Type-C and use it without connecting it to the wall outlet?
Yes. Whilst Scarlett 4th Gen is primarily designed for use with Mac and Windows PC it would be expected to be able to pass audio successfully if connected to an iPad Pro via USB-C, providing it is able to draw the required 1.5A USB-C power.
69dB input gain for Condenser Microphone?
That's right. Both Scarlett 2i2 and 4i4 4th Gen provide a huge 69dB gain range to get the best from every mic.
What do I get, this or the Clarett+ 2pre? Singer/songwriter using a condenser and an SM58 dynamic together...nothing more complicated than that.... I'd heard the clarett+ 2pre isn't powerful enough for the simple SM58 dynamic, is this true?? can't be...
It's great to hear that you're considering our products! That's a tough one. Both will perform well and deliver fantastic results. Clarett+ has some superior specifications although Scarlett 4th Gen benefits from features not found on Clarett+ such as Loopback, Auto-Gain, Clip Safe, AIR - Presence & Harmonic Drive and remote controllable pre-amps. There's no reason why both wouldn't pair well with a Shure SM58. Both should provide adequate gain range for most applications.
@@FocusriteTV Great many thanks! I think I'll go for the Clarett+ 4pre, seems to be a bit better overall (not really bothered about the other features). I started with Focusrite years ago and have been all over the place since then, I miss my Focusrite sound though so I'm coming back!
I have the OG 8i6.
Still viable in 2023?
That's great to hear. There's certainly no reason why your original Scarlett 8i6 shouldn't continue to serve you well 👍
@@FocusriteTV well drivers for apple silicon maybe? Lol
Mac Drivers? Scarlett has actually always plug-and-play on Mac as it's a USB Class Compliant device. A proprietary Mac driver doesn't exist as it's not required. Scarlett utilises Apple Core Audio.
Scarlett Mix Control, which essentially functions as a remote control for the hardware, is also compatible with Apple Silicon-based systems. Compatibility was added in version 1.10.6 of Scarlett MixControl, available from the 'Downloads' section of our website 👍
Our Windows USB and Thunderbolt/PCIe drivers are also the same across all devices, meaning that 1st Gen Scarlett users are still getting the benefit of driver updates now, over a decade since we released that range.
Will there be an 18i20 4th gen? 🥵
We don’t have any more news to share for now. At this time we’re launching the 4th Generation of Solo, 2i2 and 4i4 but we appreciate your interest in that.
Can i use external power supply with ipad Air 5
Yes this is possible. For more info on connecting a USB-C iPad with your Scarlett, you can reference the article below:
support.focusrite.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360012532199-How-to-connect-your-USB-C-iPad-with-your-3rd-or-4th-Generation-Scarlett-Audio-Interface
Unlucky, I thought u put a real limiter inside interface, without decrease gain, maybe in the future in 5th gen you'll innovated? But still imo this is the best interface = eazy to use without any problem compare to anothers interfaces. I hope in the future u put a real limiter and u add a knob for balans INPUT/USB sounds, then its a perfect interface for me and for everyone
I am starting to hate Focusrite products.
The fact is that you guys are making AMAZING products at a very affordable price. But coming up with a new product every 2 to 3 years makes no sense to me. I don't see you coming up with a new version of your high end products. And yes, this product "Clarett+ OctoPre'' is asking me to buy it lol.
Don’t buy this interfaces they go bad in a year, I bought 2 Focusrite interfaces the first 2i4 2gen damage in one year and then 4i4 3gen in less than a year and listen this Focusrite never never!!!, answer to me when I wrote the emails. Thanks Focusrite for make me lose my money; Apollo Twin universal audio that’s the solution!!!💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

I have one of these. My advice to anyone who is thinking of getting one, don’t under any circumstances. I have never been able to use it. The software does not install you need two or three different accounts for things they need to sync, they don’t. The set up time for me so far is two years and counting. Everyone will tell you that it’s an easy set up. It’s not! Biggest waste of money.
We're very sorry to hear that you have had problems, Frank. Is there a specific program that you are having problems with? If you need assistance with anything, please give us a call, use LiveChat or send us an email. We're here to help - bit.ly/FocusriteSupport
The only piece of software that Scarlett requires to function is Focusrite Control 2 which is freely available from the 'Downloads' section of our website, no account is required to access that.
Scarlett is plug-and-play on Mac. For use with Windows, you just need the USB driver, which is included with the installation of Focusrite Control 2. Once installed Scarlett is ready to use with any audio application of your choice.
By creating an account on our website and registering your Scarlett, you will have access to a selection of optional software offers. None of these programs are fundamental, we just provide some options to get you started. For most of the offers, we supply an activation code and a link that you can use to redeem the offer on the software manufacturer's website.
I’ve done it doesn’t work it’s a scam it’s just a lump of metal and wires that is a waste of money I wish I never bothered. Everyone tells me how simple it is to use but no one can show me.
Rest assured, this certainly isn't a "Scam" of any kind. We're very sorry to hear that you feel that way. If you give us a call, we can help you with this today - bit.ly/CallFocusriteSupport
@@FocusriteTV very sorry I feel that way? It’s a scam I’ve used your helpline and help desk before still didn’t work. If anyone reads this don’t get one you’re wasting your money
