Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 4th Gen 18-In/20-Out USB Audio Interface with 2 4th Gen Mic Preamps

The Scarlett 18i20 4th Gen is a top-tier USB audio interface designed for use in Project to Production studios,  offering plenty of I/O to integrate with all your analog and digital gear. Equipped with converters from Focusrite’s broadcast-grade RedNet range, it delivers professional 24-bit, 192kHz capture quality with a 120dB dynamic range that senses the nuance, power, and dynamics of every performance. The 4th Generation preamps offer 69dB of headroom for exceptional clarity without distortion, even when recording drums, horns, or a screaming 100-watt stack. And since you need to hear what's going on, the 18i20 comes with a pair of independent headphone outputs powered by custom amps that will drive your high-impedance phones with ease. Scarlett 18i20’s re-engineered Air mode enhances sound by replicating the tonal quality of a classic studio console, adding presence and harmonic richness to your tracks. The interface also features workflow enhancements like Auto Gain to set the ideal recording level automatically, and Clip Safe, which monitors levels up to 96,000 times per second to prevent clipping. These tools make it easy for engineers of all experience levels to get the perfect sound, even in complex recording sessions or live settings when time is at a premium. Whether you’re recording vocals, instruments, or a full band, the Scarlett 18i20 ensures studio-quality results with minimal effort so you can capture the moment when it happens.
