Step into the heart of your studio with the Scarlett 18i20, your ultimate hub for demanding project work. This interface comes packed with 18 inputs and 20 outputs, featuring eight of our most pristine, ultra-low-noise mic preamps. Whether it's drums, vocals, guitars, or synths, connect them all with ease through line, Hi-Z, and MIDI options.
With Focusrite Control 2, you can tailor the routing and mixing to fit any session perfectly, giving you the flexibility to route to 18i20's independent outputs. Expand your setup with ADAT, S/PDIF, and Word Clock connections for perfect sync across all your gear.
Experience the magic of Air mode, which adds that big studio console vibe with Presence and Harmonic Drive effects. Never worry about levels again with Auto Gain and Clip Safe features ensuring your recordings are always in the sweet spot. Low-latency monitoring, A/B speaker switching, and a built-in talkback mic make this interface ideal for serious producers.
The Hitmaker Expansion software bundle provides all the tools you need to go from recording to release. Plus, with the Focusrite Control 2 apps on desktop and mobile, you've got the freedom to adjust settings from anywhere in your studio.
Our 4th-Generation preamps offer the most transparent and detailed sound to date, with a massive 69dB gain range for handling even the most intense multi-track sessions. Auto Gain and Clip Safe take care of your levels, so you can focus on making music, not managing tech.
Plug in your guitar for that amp-like feel, connect your synths or grooveboxes to the line inputs, and route your outboard gear through the line outputs. Use the MIDI interface for all your external MIDI devices, and expand your setup further with additional inputs and outputs via S/PDIF and ADAT.
With a dynamic range of 122dB, Scarlett 18i20 ensures your recordings are of the highest quality, akin to what you'd find in top-tier studios.
