The Focusrite Clarett 4Pre USB is an audio interface that comes with 18-inputs alongside 8-outputs and features specially designed high performing, low-noise (-128dB EIN) microphone pre-amplifiers with super-low distortion and has a linear design that guarantees a crystal clear, open transparent sound which gives an accurate representation of your original performance. This interface boasts a 119dB dynamic range as well as a smooth frequency response across the whole spectrum and can now be experienced with any Mac or PC thanks to the USB 2.0 connection.

The Clarett range is critically-acclaimed for its excellent sound quality; this is partly due to the specially designed microphone pre-amplifiers with the unique ‘Air’ effect when this effect is enabled the mic pre-amps work to reproduce the input impedance, clarity and frequency response curve of the original ISA microphone pre-amp. You also get Focusrite’s ultra-precise digital conversion, a carefully balanced noise floor, huge dynamic range, smooth frequency response and super-low distortion, all working together to give you the best possible sound to and from your DAW. The Clarett 4Pre USB also comes with loads of free software including: Avid Pro Tools Intro+ for Focusrite, Focusrite’s Red 2 & 3 Plug-In Suite, Softube Flow® Guitar Essentials and more.

The Clarett 4Pre USB allows you to capture every detail and subtle nuance thanks to the decades of analogue circuit design experience that is applied to the 24-bit/192kHz analogue-digital and digital-analogue converters and delivers a far superior signal path than its similarly-priced counterparts. The four microphone/line inputs feature gain halo meters that make it super-easy to set the input level, two of the mic/line inputs are high-impedance which means they can record super-hot pickups without any unwanted distortion. This interface also features four fixed inputs while the ADAT input supports an additional eight channels when combined with a multi-channel microphone pre-amplifier such as the Clarett OctoPre. The outputs on the 4Pre include two monitor outputs with anti-thump technology, a headphone output with volume control and two line outputs as well as a MIDI in/output.
