Focusrite Scarlett 18i16 USB-C Audio/MIDI Interface (4th Generation)

18x16: Four Focusrite Preamps and Flagship RedNet Converters for Producers and Small Bands

Offering a powerful combination of high-quality sound and user-friendliness in a compact and portable format for recording, podcasting, and streaming, the Focusrite Scarlett 18i16 (4th Generation) 18-in / 16-out USB-C audio/MIDI interface lets musicians, producers, and creators capture high-quality audio with no learning curve, no matter where they go. The 4th Generation model features four ultralow-noise microphone preamps with up to 69 dB of gain to capture the full potential of your mics. The flagship, RedNet 24-bit / 192 kHz AD/DA converters provide a huge dynamic range up to 122 dB, matching the quality you'd find in a pro studio. The new Auto Gain mode automatically sets your recording level, and the Clip Safe mode automatically prevents your signal from clipping, ensuring every take is a keeper. The Loopback feature lets podcasters, gamers, YouTubers, and streamers mix audio from other apps running on the computer. The 18i16 4th Generation works in standalone mode without a computer, useful for live performances or monitoring-only situations.

Scarlett 18i16 is the perfect hub to integrate your DAW and hardware with eight analog inputs, four analog outputs, plus ADAT and S/PDIF digital I/O, and MIDI I/O to connect external instruments, processors, and effects, and manage complex routing with incredible ease via Focusrite Control 2 software.
