Focusrite Clarett recording interfaces

Focusrite Clarett 8PreX Focusrite has released a range of audio interfaces that combine a new preamp design with Thunderbolt technology, to offer high sound quality and interface latency of less than 1ms.

The Clarett range comprises four devices – the 2Pre (10 inputs/4 outputs), 4Pre (18 inputs/8 outputs), 8Pre (18 inputs/20 outputs) and 8Pre X (26 inputs/28 outputs). This final 2U-high interface has been designed for permanent racked studio installtions, featuring extended Adat I/O, and separate rear panel inputs for mic, line and instrument, as well as dedicated phantom power, phase reverse and high-pass filters on every channel.

All units support, 192kHz sampling at 24-bit resolution, with mic preamps that replicate the impedance and transformer resonance of the original Focusrite ISA range.

Key features:

· ISA design model.

· 116dB A/D and 118dB D/A dynamic range.

· Thunderbolt technology with <1ms interface latency.

· 192kHz, 24-bit sampling.

· Expandable via Adat.

· 64-bit AAX, AU and VST compatible Red 2 and Red 3 plug-in suite.

· Detailed metering.

The Clarett Range will be available Spring/Summer 2015.
