FocUSrite Scarlett 8I6 (3Rd Gen) USb Audio Interface With Pro Tools | First, Ams-Scarlett-8I6-3G

It’s a good audio interface. Advice make sure you don’t have multiple laptops connecting on it cause it might disrupt your audio settings

Performance good.

Wie immer kann ich nichts negatives über den Scarlett sagen. Alles da wo es sein soll, und die Qualität ist sehr gut.

Be aware that this is from a third party marketplace and not from amazon directly, if there is something that is wrong and you wish to return it also be aware that you will lose 50% of your refund for opening the item. Also, be aware than this device does NOT work through a ground loop isolator, so if you have other USB synths connected to your computer that you want to connect to this, make sure than the isolator works with those other devices, because it wont through this one. Would have been very pleased to have had this amongst my setup but this problem made it impossible, so 5 out of 5 for the device in the correct environment but 1 out of 5 for the retailer, as the policies were not made clear at the time of purchase.

This is great hardware. I use to do my production hobby work on a desktop that died prematurely. My previous incarnation I ran a R-Bus into my Roland VM-3100 and additionally ran a SoundBlaster Emulator X. Unfortunately running those on an outdated laptop was not an option. I recently purchased a HP Laptop and tried running FL Studio. The audio out was lacking so I decided to look into audio interfaces and their software bundles. I already own an outdated version of Reason, Cubase, and Ableton. So I wanted to see what could I beef up my arsenal with. After seeing what Focusrite had I was thoroughly impressed. My next need was midi i/o. Again I had outboard gear in the form of two MidiSport 8x8. This filled in that gap with it being MIDI capable. My next option was multiple audio inputs and outputs. This more than covered my needs. I just needed a headphones out and it has two. I also needed something to connect my monitors and this was covered. I can chain my MIDI and use my patch bay if needed to route audio in. This device covered more than I needed which is perfect! Setup was pretty much straightforward but a tiny bit awkward. Everything on the Focusrite side is in perfect condition. Downloading everything is simple due to a lack of a DVD drive. Unfortunately I hit a brick wall with the software bundle. Some of the instructions are lacking. After finding a way to download most of the software I found myself at a crossroads. ProTools decided to discontinue their support of PT First. So that DAW isn’t an option for use. You’ll have to rely on Ableton’s Live in order to get any production work done. My other issue is with a bundled reverb. It crashes my DAW of choice every single time. I have a support ticket open for it so who knows if there’s a fix or if it’s just a problem with my configuration. There’s a lot of people with the same issue and different DAWs…??? Overall I love my new system. It’s been able to resurrect my love of production.

Integrada en un home studio y el funcionamiento más que correcto. Estoy encantada con ella. Buenos previos, conectividad, los puertos midi, el número de entradas y salidas... Una tarjeta de verdad por 300€.

Geniales Interface mit herrvorragender Tonqualität. Ich nutze das 18i20, um mein Schlagzeug aufzunehmen. Hierfür ist es bestens geeignet. Die Air Funktion kommt bei mir bei den Overhead Mics zum Einsatz. Bisher habe ich das Interface in einem Regal liegen, plane aber einen Koffer inkl. Rack Mount zu nutzen, um es auch Live für das Abspielen von Playbacks mit verschiedensten Outputs zu nutzen! Das Interface hat mich überzeugt und ich habe sogar daraufhin mein Mobile Pre 2 gegen ein Scarlett 2i2 Gen3 ersetzt.
