Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB Audio Interface
The Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 is an amazing interface for any home studio. Record up to two instruments at once and sound better than ever with high quality preamps.
Getting studio quality recordings at home has never been easier. Quick Start gets you set up, recording and playing back within minutes. Focusrite mic preamps, high-headroom instrument inputs and iconic Gain Halos mean the science of sounding great is sorted. We’ve worried about the tech so that you can focus on the music.
Focusrite interfaces are perfect partners for Pro Tools, so the Scarlett 2i2 comes with Pro Tools | First – Focusrite Creative pack, as well as Ableton Live Lite recording software and a suite of software and samples, so you can start recording straight away. As you’d expect, it works flawlessly with all major DAWs on Windows and Mac.
Scarlett 3rd Generation interfaces also have lower latency than any other USB audio interfaces.
Sound Like You
Focusrite have been making mic preamps for 30 years, and the 3rd Gen mic pre is the best the Scarlett series has ever had. The 24-bit/192kHz converters give your recordings clarity and detail. Air mode breathes life into vocals, adding unique high-end detail. Decades of experience mean Scarlett sounds just like you.
Record Guitar and Vocals Simultaneously
Record your guitar and vocals at the same time, onto separate tracks. If one doesn’t sound right, you won’t have to re-record both. You can also apply separate effects: amp simulation to your guitar, for example, and reverb on your vocal.
Effects in Real Time
Super-low latency lets you enhance your recordings in ways that are simply impossible with any other interface in this class, like enabling real-time guitar amp simulation and vocal reverb (subject to your software, settings and computer).
The Addictive Keys virtual instrument from XLN Audio is included for free with all Focusrite audio interfaces. One full licence per account is available for existing customers as well as new customers.
Start Recording Today
Compose, record, edit, save and export your music straight away, with time-unlimited versions of industry-standard music software: Ableton Live Lite and Pro Tools | First – Focusrite Creative Pack, which features 12 additional plug-ins including the Eleven Lite for real life guitar amp emulations and Black Op for iconic distortions and overdrives.
You also get Softube’s Time and Tone bundle, the Focusrite Red Plug-In Suite, Novation’s Bass Station Virtual synthesiser and 2GB of Loopmasters samples.
All the software is simple enough for beginners, yet sophisticated enough for advanced users.
Record Absolutely Anywhere
Never miss another moment of inspiration. Capture ideas at a friend’s house, or record your next open mic night: Scarlett 2i2 is compact and tough enough to take anywhere – but sounds just like the biggest Scarlett interfaces.

Newest Generation – Better In Every Way
The 3rd generation Scarlett Solo is packed full of upgrades. It operates at sample rates all the way up to 192kHz with new super-low latency* that lets you record and monitor with software effects in real time.
*Super-low latency depends on your choice of software, settings and computer.
Focusrite completely redesigned the instrument input so it can handle even the hottest guitar pick-ups, and have made it easier than ever to set your levels accurately. They also built in new analogue protection circuitry across the inputs and the outputs, to guard your interface against unwanted power surges.
Crisp and Clear Conversion
Converting your performance into digital audio and back again is the most important part of the recording process. Focusrite have been making class-leading converters for over 20 years, and Scarlett 2i2 has the best converters of any interface in its class.
You can really hear the difference! Every part of your recording will be beautifully crisp and clear, even when you’re playing softly. This means you can amplify your quieter moments without any unwanted hiss or buzzing.
Find the Perfect Level
Setting the perfect level couldn’t be easier, thanks to our signature halos around the gain knobs. They glow a reassuring shade of green when you’re recording at the perfect volume. If they turn red, it’s time to back off.
