Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 USB 2.0 Audio Interface — 18 in/8 out, 4 mic preamps, 24-bit/96 kHz, ADAT, S/PDIF, MIDI, and a full software bundle for pro studio recording.

The Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 USB 2.0 Audio Interface is a professional-grade recording solution delivering 18 inputs and 8 outputs at resolutions up to 24-bit/96 kHz — making it an ideal centerpiece for any serious home studio or project recording setup. Four high-quality Focusrite mic preamps with up to 60 dB of gain, switchable phantom power, and Hi-Z instrument inputs on channels 1 and 2 ensure that every source — from condenser microphones to guitars — is captured with pristine clarity.

Built into a rugged unibody metal chassis and compatible with Mac, Windows, and iPad, the Scarlett 18i8 offers exceptional connectivity including ADAT Lightpipe, S/PDIF, and MIDI I/O, plus two independent headphone mixes and an integrated monitor level control. It ships with a powerful software bundle including Ableton Live Lite, the Focusrite Red 2 and Red 3 Plug-In Suite, and the Softube Time and Tone Pack — delivering studio-quality tools right out of the box.
