"...Switches felt firm but not terrible to click back and forth and didn’t feel cheap...." Read more

"...One of my imacs has a broken headphone jack and this was cheaper, faster and better than tearing it apart to repair it." Read more

"...No need for beta drivers... no buffer issues. No lag whatsoever on any of the mainstream programs." Read more

"...and sleek, soft rubber volume controls were a nice feel and felt very responsive...." Read more

149 customers mention95 positive54 negative

Customers have mixed opinions about the sound quality of the audio midi interface. Some mention that the sound is acceptable at this price point, it adds no background noise or distortion, and is an excellent little amp for an audio listener.

"...It worked perfectly. Easy, well sounding interface. Oddly after first use & an update on my MacBook Pro to Big Sur, the Scarlett no longer launched...." Read more

"...The sound quality is incredible. Because I am only playing back, and not recording, I did not need to install any of the provided software...." Read more

39 customers mention25 positive14 negative

Customers have mixed opinions about the software that comes with the audio midi interface. Some mention that it works perfectly, comes with many software programs and add-ons, and is a free software bundle. However, others say that the software is lacking, has known issues, and it is a huge hassle to download software for any product of this company. Some say that it is not compatible with Win7, and that the mixer software is not compliant with Win8.

"...The instructions where informative and the included software was huge bonus! This was a simple setup and even a beginner had zero issues...." Read more

"...The provided software does you no favors, either...." Read more

"...Simple, no software needed to be recognized on any system i've tried it on (OSX largely)...." Read more

"...Pros:1. Free software bundle. Great DAW applications like ProTools and Ableton Live Lite.2...." Read more

Great product does what it says
5 Stars
Great product does what it says
I bought this to record both microphone and guitar on different tracks and do basic editing on the laptop. It works great. Simple to set up (drivers for Windows were easy to find and MacBook doesn't need drivers). I also connected it to my stereo amp to have a sort of mini studio monitor and that works great too.The strange looking sockets do in fact connect to either 1/4" cables or microphone cables.The only disappointment (and this has nothing to do with the Focusrite product itself) is that it was supposed to come with ProTools. This was a complete failure. After creating an account, waiting for a massive 2.7GB download, installing, and rebooting several times, ProTools didn't even work. It requires a "cloud" login which fails every time (even though the Avid App Manager on the same PC works fine). So I switched to Garage Band on the Mac and it worked as expected.(Note that the version of ProTools that comes with this product doesn't include any support, so Avid refused to troubleshoot even a basic issue like not being able to get the software to start).The Scarlett is still a 5-star product, but if you are buying it because you think you're getting ProTools, think again. For 99% of amateur recordings, Garage Band is going to be far simpler anyway. And it works.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ottima scheda per la fascia di prezzo
Reviewed in Italy on February 7, 2019
Possiedo da alcuni anni una FOCUSRITE Saffire Pro 24 DSP Firewire collegata alla mia workstation desktop, scheda veramente eccezionale ma, ormai datata e poco supportata e aggiornata, inoltre, non utilizzabile sul mio nuovo portatile primo di fw.

Mi sono quindi messo alla ricerca di una scheda USB da utilizzare con il notebook e che la potesse sostituire la 24 DSP, in caso di necessità.

Dopo numerosi confronti tra i marchi migliori di questo settore ho deciso di affidarmi nuovamente alla Focusrite.

Devo, ammettere che, acquistare una scheda USB, dopo anni di FireWire, sembrava quasi un passo indietro dal punto di vista tecnologico (ho avuto numerose schede audio usb, prima di passare, felicemente ad una scheda firewire), ma questa piccola Scarlett 2I2 è riuscita a sorprendermi.

Ottima latenza per una scheda USB: L’opzione direct monitor è raramente necessaria. Bassa latenza anche su DAW con molti plugin.
Come da tradizione Focusrite, ottimi pre. Buon volume di entrata e suono pulito e cristallino. Forse un pochino freddo e meno spaziale, rispetto alla 24 DSP.
Costruzione ottima: solida, compatta e molto, ma molto, bella da vedere.
Altra nota positiva è il vastissimo assortimento di software e plugins in bundle con questa scheda, ma dovete scaricarlo dal sito, dopo la registrazione del prodotto (utile ai fini della garanzia).
Al software bundle, dichiarato sul sito Focusrite, è stato recentemente aggiunta una versione light di Bias Amp2 della Positive Grid: Veramente una gradita sorpresa, per chi ama i simulatori di amp di questa casa.

Sicuramente ci sono delle differenze, con la Saffire Pro 24 DSP, per l numero di connessioni, controlli e anche un pochino nella qualità dei pre, ma parliamo di un prodotto che costava tre volte questa piccola Scarlett 2I2.
Altra piccola nota dolente è l’impossibilità di utilizzare il software di controllo Scarlett MixControl or Focusrite Control, ma è un limite presente anche nel modello superiore 2i4.

Complessivamente, una buona scheda USB, probabilmente, la migliore in questa fascia di mercato: Suona bene, è bella da vedere ed è piacevole usarla e anche trasportarla nella borsa del notebook.

Impossibile pretendere di più per questa fascia di prezzo.
