Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th Gen

Description

Essential Information About the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th Gen Audio Interface

  • 24-bit/192 kHz Conversion with 120 dB dynamic range for detailed, deep recordings ready for mixing.
  • Two ultra-quiet Scarlett preamps (up to 69 dB gain) and Air mode featuring "Presence" and "Harmonic Drive" for a console-like tone.
  • Auto Gain and Clip Safe for consistently controlled levels, dynamic gain halos for quick adjustments at a glance.
  • Bus-powered USB-C, Hi-Z inputs, loopback, and Hitmaker bundle to start producing right out of the box.

A 4th Generation That Confirms Its Status as a Home Studio Icon

The Scarlett 2i2 4th Gen continues the successful "2 inputs / 2 outputs" formula that made Focusrite famous, while taking a sonic leap forward. Converters inherited from the RedNet lineage, quieter preamps, and increased dynamic headroom: this generation modernizes the essential compact audio interface for musicians, podcasters, and creators seeking studio-quality without complexity.

Designed for Vocals, Guitar, and Mobile Creation

Whether you're recording vocals with a condenser mic, a guitar directly via the Hi-Z inputs, or a synth line-in, the 2i2 offers immediate setup, low latency, and precise headphone monitoring. Bus-powered, it integrates seamlessly with a laptop for a minimalist home studio or on-the-go recording, ideal for solo artists from beatmaking to podcasting.

Modern Features for Flawless Recordings

Scarlett Preamps and Redesigned Air Mode

The two preamps deliver up to 69 dB of gain with extremely low noise. With one click, Air mode adds brightness with "Presence" and harmonic density with "Harmonic Drive," making vocals and instruments stand out in the mix without heavy plugins.

Conversion and Level Safety

24-bit/192 kHz conversion and a 120 dB dynamic range provide depth and headroom. Auto Gain automatically adjusts your inputs, while Clip Safe continuously monitors to prevent unexpected clipping, even during loud passages.

Clear Connectivity and Production Tools

Plug in guitars and basses directly, power your studio monitors via balanced outputs, and use loopback for streaming, sampling, or quick demos. The Hitmaker software bundle delivers essentials to record, mix, and release your tracks without delay.
