Introducing the Focusrite Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen: Elevate Your Recordings with Studio-Grade Sound and AIR Feature.

Unlock your music production potential with the Focusrite Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen audio interface, now available on our eCommerce website. Designed for both professionals and beginners, this compact and powerful device offers exceptional sound quality, seamless connectivity, intuitive controls, a versatile software package, and the unique AIR feature for adding professional polish to your recordings.

The Scarlett Solo, now in its third edition, is the most compact and portable model within Focusrite’s acclaimed Scarlett series of USB audio interfaces for Mac and PC. It features an XLR mic input, a balanced line input for synthesizers and other line-level audio sources, and a pair of balanced outputs for monitoring. The Scarlett’s high-quality mic preamp provides 48V phantom power and is also equipped with a brand-new Air Mode switch. Electric guitars and basses can be connected directly to the line input and the impedance adjusted to Hi-Z accordingly. The Scarlett Solo also looks great and is very attractively priced. An audio interface provides a connection between a computer and various external devices. The computer in turn requires special software in order to process the incoming signals. Focusrite offers a selection of software you can use to get started, including the digital audio workstations (DAWs) Ableton Live Lite and ProTools Artist, and a three-month subscription to Splice Sounds. Focusrite’s Hitmaker Expansion software bundle is also included.

Love is in the "Air"

Focusrite’s outstanding reputation for building high-quality mic preamps has been established for over three decades now, and much of this expertise has been included in the third generation of Scarlett interfaces via the brand-new integrated Air Mode, which when selected opens up and brightens the high end in a way that is intended to emulate their classic ISA preamps – or, as the British manufacturer puts it, to provide “unique high-end detail for vocals and acoustic guitar”. Decades of experience really do speak for quality in this case, and the AD/DA converters provide optimum clarity and detail with a maximum bit depth of 24 bits and frequency rates of up to 192kHz.

For lone warriors

This compact desktop interface is ideally suited to singers/songwriters. It is USB-powered and sturdily built, yet lightweight and portable. Plug your vocal mic into the first input and your guitar into the second – and let the recording session begin. Unlike other members of the Scarlett family, the Solo lacks MIDI connectivity. This should not pose too much of a problem, however, since most modern keyboards feature a USB interface as standard and can thus be connected directly to the computer.

Intuitive Controls for Streamlined Operation

The Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen features intuitive controls that put you in complete command of your recording session. The tactile gain knob allows precise adjustment of input levels, while the halo gain indicators provide visual feedback to ensure optimal signal levels. Activate the direct monitor button for real-time monitoring, eliminating any latency-induced distractions.

Hitmaker Expansion

The Hitmaker Expansion contains software tools for further enhancing your music productions: Guitar sounds with Softube Marshall Silver Jubilee 2555, tuning options for vocals with Antares Auto-Tune, reverb effects with Relab's LX480 Essentials, the XLN Audio® Addictive Drums 2: Studio Rock kit, and a choice of one of four instruments from XLN Audio Addictive Keys. Additionally, an EQ and compressor are offered with the Focusrite Red Plug-in Suite, a full channel strip offering an EQ, de-esser, compressor, limiter, gate, and expander with Bx_console Focusrite SC, and finally, two months with the Landr Studio mastering tools with five free masters to add the finishing touch to your projects. With the Hitmaker Expansion, you get both the interface and a selection of tools, so you have all the software you need to get started.
