The Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th Generation – a USB-C audio interface for Mac and PC – comes with two balanced line inputs for connecting synthesizers or other line-level audio devices and two balanced outputs, which will most often be used for monitoring purposes. Alternatively, microphones can be connected to two XLR input sockets located at the back of the device. The two Scarlett microphone preamps deliver superior sound quality, 48V of phantom power, and (as a new addition to the 4th Generation) a re-engineered Air mode comprising the Presence and Harmonic Drive functions. Electric guitars and electric basses can also be connected directly to the jack inputs and the impedance adjusted accordingly. All in all, the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th Generation represents a superb and visually appealing interface at an attractive price.
Love is in the "Air"
Focusrite has earned an excellent reputation during its thirty years of building microphone preamps and, with the addition of the Presence and Harmonic Drive functions, has now succeeded in making the 4th Generation version even more appealing. The optional Air mode Presence adds treble when recording, delivering – in Focusrite's own words – "high-end details for vocals, acoustic guitar or cymbals", and emulating the sound of this traditional British manufacturer's legendary studio console. The Harmonic Drive function boosts mid-range harmonics, making it ideal not only for electric guitars, among other instruments, but also for certain vocals.
Dynamic duo
As a desktop interface with compact dimensions, the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 is particularly suitable for home and bedroom studios. Powered by USB, the device is lightweight, despite its robust construction, and therefore portable. The two flexibly configured inputs and the two outputs (for use with active monitors, for example) should more than satisfy any connection requirement. The newly revised Gain Halos (coloured LED rings around the gain controller) make it even easier to check input levels. Unlike some of the larger models in the Scarlett series, the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th Generation is not equipped with a MIDI input and output; however, as many keyboards available today already come with a built-in USB interface allowing direct connection to a computer, this should not pose too much of a problem.
About Focusrite
Founded in 1985 by Rupert Neve, Focusrite quickly made a name for itself with high-quality analogue consoles. Today, the company markets audio interfaces, mic preamps, consoles, analogue EQs, and channel strips as well as hardware and software for digital audio processing. The company is based in High Wycombe, England, and has won numerous industry awards. In addition to the Focusrite Pro line, the company also has subsidiaries that include Adam Audio, Novation, and iOS app creator Ampify Music.
Hit the ground running
For aspiring producers who are looking to start recording immediately after purchasing the interface, Focusrite has also included an Easy Start tool and put together a comprehensive software package comprising Ableton Live Lite, a three-month subscription to Pro Tools Intro+, and the Hitmaker Expansion bundle, which includes guitar sounds from the Softube Marshall Silver Jubilee 2555, pitch adjustment options for vocals from Antares Auto-Tune, reverb effects from Relab LX480 Essentials, and the "Addictive Drums 2: Studio Rock" virtual drumming instrument from XLN Audio. The Studio Grand Piano from XLN Audio Addictive Keys is also accessible and the Focusrite Red Plug-in Suite provides an entire channel strip complete with EQ, de-esser, compressor, limiter, gate, and expander. And the icing on the cake: The package also comes with a two-month subscription to Landr Studio mastering tools, allowing those final touches to be added to any project.

Have an outboard micpre, line in with no gain on the device, sounds really nice. Most important for this set up is converting to digital, and there is really no noise at all detectable. great value and works really well.
Only thing is, off button would be nice in future, or like, if the second power USB when plugged in, disables power from the usb from computer - so it can be switched off without unplugging. For now it just stays plugged in and lit up.

the best budget audio interface on the market
Aidennf 11.12.2024
there’s no way a budget audio interface can sound this good, i tried a lot of them and none of them were able to catch the sound so majestically as this one.
Of course there are some minor issues i encountered: from time to time there’s a feedback in the higher frequencies, but with some eq that just disappears, plus it doesn’t happen all the time, so i don’t really know if it’s an issue with my electricity and its ground connection.
Nonetheless, it is my main device for recording guitar, bass and voice and it just sounds awesome.

Sozar79 16.03.2025
As an avid musician and content creator, I’ve used several audio interfaces over the years, but the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 4th Generation has completely blown me away! Whether you’re a beginner or a professional, this is hands-down one of the best audio interfaces on the market.
Sound Quality – Pure, Clean, and Professional
The sound quality is nothing short of spectacular. With its upgraded 24-bit/192kHz converters, every recording sounds incredibly crisp, clear, and natural. The preamps deliver ultra-low noise and provide a rich, warm tone that truly elevates vocals and instruments. The Air mode is a game-changer, adding beautiful brightness and clarity, making vocals shine effortlessly in the mix.
Build Quality & Design – Sleek and Robust
Focusrite has always been known for its premium build quality, and the Scarlett 2i2 4th Gen is no exception. The solid metal chassis gives it a premium feel, and the new dynamic gain halos make it super easy to monitor levels at a glance. The knobs feel smooth yet sturdy, and the unit itself is compact enough to fit any workspace while being durable for travel.
Preamps & Inputs – Exceptional Performance
The new ultra-low-noise preamps provide up to 69dB of gain, which is a huge improvement over previous models. Whether you're recording with a Shure SM7B or a RØDE NT1, this interface gives you clean gain without a cloud lifter! Plugging in guitars? The Hi-Z instrument input delivers crisp, dynamic recordings without unwanted distortion.
Latency & Software – Flawless Experience
Zero-latency monitoring is a lifesaver for real-time recording, and the USB-C connection ensures a rock-solid, ultra-fast performance. The included Focusrite Control software is intuitive and makes routing super easy. Plus, you get an amazing software bundle, including Pro Tools First, Ableton Live Lite, and the Hitmaker Expansion with top-tier plugins.

More gain for the mic but some problems with Windows 11
MatasM 25.01.2024
If you get problems with Windows 11 make sure to optimize it like I had to do. I thought it was hardware problem but its probably windows updates... now it works like it should.
