Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 3rd Gen is the ideal compact studio solution for producers and musicians with two of Focusrite's upgraded Scarlett 3rd Gen preamps, plenty of audio inputs and outputs, and MIDI connectivity to get connected.

Scarlett 8i6 allows you to keep all your hardware plugged in and ready for when creativity hits. With improved A-D and D-A conversion, recordings and playback are crystal clear and pronounced up to 24-bit/192kHz and two independent high-fidelity headphone outputs with dedicated volume control enable flexible monitoring during recording and mixing.

8i6 provides two of Focusrite’s best-ever-performing third-generation Scarlett mic preamps: with optional Air setting to reproduce the Air effect of their original ISA mic preamp, giving your vocal or acoustic recordings a brighter and more open sound.

Record guitars or bass via the two high-headroom instrument inputs without any clipping or unwanted distortion. And get creative using the six flexible line inputs – two on the front with gain control, and four fixed-line on the back allowing you to record up to six mono or three stereo line-level sources such as synthesisers or drum machines.

A pair of virtual loopback inputs allows you to capture a stereo feed of any combination of hardware input and software playback channels – making podcasting, live streaming and sampling tasks easier.

Included Software
Scarlett 8i6 is designed to stand up to days on the road and connects straight to your Mac® or PC via USB cable. It comes with all the software tools you need to get started: two comprehensive digital audio workstations, Ableton® Live Lite™ and Pro Tools® First Focusrite Creative Pack; Softube’s Time and Tone Bundle; Focusrite’s Red Plug-in Suite; a choice of one of four of XLN Audio’s Addictive Keys.

    Plugin Collective

    Focusrite gifts Plug-in Collective members Reason Rack Plugin LiteFrom 17th September to 18th November, Plug-in Collective members can download Reason Studios’ Reason Rack Plugin Lite for free.

    A slimmed-down version of the legendary Reason virtual studio, Reason Rack Plugin Lite lets you run the full Reason Rack as a VST3/AU/AAX plugin in any Mac or PC DAW. The Rack plays host to 19 characterful devices, including the Redrum drum machine, Subtractor and Monotone synths, ID8 ROMpler, Scream4 Distortion, RV7000 Reverb, MClass mastering effects, and Scales & Chords MIDI processor. They can be used individually, or freely combined, connected and routed via Reason’s famous ‘backside’ patching interface to construct elaborate modular hybrids. And support for Rack Extensions means your device list can be bolstered with any of over 700 add-on devices in the Reason Studios Shop at any time.

    You can run as many instances of Reason Rack Plugin Lite in a project as your computer can handle, and it can also be deployed as a standalone music production application in its own right, enabling sequencing and editing of up to eight audio and/or MIDI tracks, with full access to the Rack and all its devices. Whichever way you choose to use it, Reason Rack Plugin Lite makes for a unique and hugely creative synthesis, signal processing and sound design system that’s sure to take your music down new and inspiring avenues.

    “This month sees a big collaboration between us and Reason Studios, as we offer up Reason Rack Plugin Lite,” says Plug-in Collective Product Manager, Jonathan Campbell. “This Lite version of Reason 11 comprises a whopping 19 Rack modules, including a number of mixing plug-ins and some of their famous instruments, making this a real heavyweight offer.
