Focusrite’s Scarlett Studio provides all the basic elements of a complete home studio kit for a Mac or PC user, including a fully featured music software suite. The package comprises a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 audio interface, Scarlett Studio CM25 microphone, Scarlett Studio HP60 headphones and Steinberg Cubase LE 6 music production software.
While the Scarlett 2i2’s dual inputs are well suited to singer/songwriters and electronic music makers, the Scarlett Studio CM25 condenser microphone can be used for vocal takes and guitars, keyboards or other line-level instruments can be simultaneously recorded. Scarlett 2i2 has TRS monitor outputs and a front-panel headphones outlet, each with dedicated level controls, and the zero-latency Direct Monitor mode handles tracking without monitoring delays.
Key features:
Focusrite has also teamed up with Steinberg to include Cubase LE 6 music production software in the package. Record up to 16 tracks of audio and 24 tracks of Midi, and run VST audio instruments and effects, such as the compressor, reverb, gate and EQ processors included in the Scarlett plug-in bundle. Novation’s Bass Station soft synth is also included, as well as more than 1Gb of royalty-free samples from Loopmasters.
The package is priced at US$299.99 MSRP ($249.99 at dealers).
