Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 3rd Gen 18x20 USB Audio Interface, 3rd Generation

Unbeatable, studio-quality sound right out of the box, Focusrite's third-generation Scarlett 18i20 is the heart of your studio. This high-performance 24-bit/192kHz AD-DA converter USB audio interface features eight of Scarlett's advanced third-generation mic preamps with a switchable Air setting feeding your vocal recording a brighter, more open sound. Each mic preamp also features a pad to smooth out higher-level signals without clipping. Record guitars and bass without unwanted distortion or clipping thanks to two front-panel high-headroom instrument inputs. Podcasts, live streaming, and sampling are easy with the pair of virtual loopback inputs that allow capturing a stereo feed of any combination of hardware input and software playback channels, while Speaker-switching technology and a built-in talkback mic allow for easy communication during sessions. Scarlett 18i20 is powered by a standard USB-C connection to Mac or PC or via the included IEC power cable. The 18i20 comes with some of the best-loved tools in the business, including Hitmaker Expansion, with exclusive content from legendary Auto-Tune® creators Antares®, along with Brainworx®, Softube®, XLN Audio®, Relab, and more. Plus, you get Ableton Live Lite and a three-month subscription to Avid® Pro Tools® Artist with the Complete Plugin bundle. And as with all Focusrite products, you’ll also benefit from a three-year warranty and award-winning customer support.
