For ultra-low noise 24-bit/192kHz A-D and D-A conversion, the Focusrite Clarett+ 4Pre USB audio interface is the choice of professionals throughout the world. Featuring 4 Clarett mic pres, ADAT I/O, and 2 monitor outs. Compatible with both PC and Mac.

Clarett+ Series Preamps
Focusrite Clarett 4Pre USB is an audio interface that has been designed to deliver high performance microphone pre-amplification with transparent audio conversion, in a low-noise, low-distortion lightweight unit. The dynamic range of the Interfaces in this range is 119dB, and users have the choice of either USB bus power (3A @ 5V 15W USB Type-C ports) or the included 12V power supply. The Clarett+ 4Pre USB is equipped with four front panel mic/line inputs, two of which have high-headroom instrument inputs for recording hot signals without distortion. Each mic pre has a separate gain knob with a Gain Halo meter that makes it easy to set the correct input level. The interface also provides four line-level outputs, MIDI I/O, stereo S/PDIF I/O, and eight ADAT input channels to expand your setup. The front panel features two 1/4" headphone outputs with independent volume controls. A pair of +48V phantom power switches allow you to turn on phantom power for condenser microphones on channels 1 and 2, and/or 3 and 4 respectively.

Many Features
The Clarett+ 4Pre USB offers a comprehensive software package that includes the Focusrite Red Plug-In Suite with accurate models of the Red 2 equalizer and Red 3 compressor, the Brainworx bx_console Focusrite SC plug-in that emulates the sound of Focusrite ISA 110 Equalizer and ISA 130 Dynamics Modules, the Softube Time and Tone Bundle with reverb, delay, mastering, and distortion plug-ins, and more. Also provided is Focusrite Control software that enables you to configure your routing and monitor mixes from Mac and Windows computers or iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch devices.
