Focusrite Clarett+ 2Pre 10-in/4-out USB Audio Interface

Whether recording vocals and instruments or composing in the box, the Focusrite Clarett+ 2Pre is the audibly impressive, pure-sounding, bus-powered USB-C interface for PC and Mac to take with you on your creative journey.

Two Clarett+ mic preamps, featuring All-Analog Air with impedance switching and relay control, capture superbly clear recordings with high headroom, low distortion and ultra-low noise. Two JFET instrument inputs let you plug straight in and preserve the natural tone of your guitar, just like plugging into an amplifier.

Independent AD and DA converters bring you closer than ever to your music and let you hear the truth, whether you’re in the studio or on the road. Greatly improved DA dynamic range enables you to hear every detail and have greater control over your mix. Lower AD converter distortion lets you capture signals with more clarity, for greater transparency and sonic accuracy.

Clarett+ 2Pre is the interface that accompanies you as you grow. Expandable using ADAT, you can connect devices such as Clarett OctoPre for a 10-input tracking environment.
