The Focusrite Clarett+ 2Pre USB is a portable yet powerful USB audio interface that delivers pristine sound quality and wireless convenience. Featuring two newly developed Clarett+ mic preamps, the Clarett+ 2Pre captures recordings with stunning clarity, high headroom and ultralow noise. Its upgraded 24-bit/192kHz AD/DA conversion provides an unrivaled dynamic range to hear every nuance in your mixes. Now musicians and producers can compose and record with professional-grade gear anywhere inspiration strikes.

 

Pristine Sound and Vintage Character

The Clarett+ 2Pre is equipped with two redesigned Clarett+ mic preamps that provide gobs of gain with vanishingly low distortion and noise. An "Air" circuit model delivers the sonic character of Focusrite's classic ISA transformers, imparting warmth and richness to recordings. With impedance switching and relay-based gain control, the Clarett+ preamps suit any microphone and source.

 

Superior AD/DA Conversion for Maximum Clarity

Newly chosen analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters help the Clarett+ 2Pre achieve an outstanding 124dB dynamic range, enabling you to hear the finest details in your mixes and recordings. A lower noise floor reveals subtle textures that were previously inaudible. Every nuance comes through with stunning realism thanks to the Clarett+ 2Pre's unparalleled conversion.

 

Expandable, Flexible and Portable

Despite its compact size, the Clarett+ 2Pre is ripe with connectivity. It features two mic/line inputs, two line outputs, MIDI I/O, a high-power headphone out, and ADAT optical input for adding up to eight channels. USB-C and USB-A cables are included for plug-and-play connectivity with Mac and PC. And with optional bus power, the Clarett+ 2Pre can operate without an AC adapter for total portability.

 

Included Software

Each channel of this Clarett+ interface is equipped with a dedicated insert that lets you keep your favorite rack equipment plugged in and ready to track through. This flexible insert setup lets you add analog gear to your signal chains as needed, but all Clarett+ interfaces also include the Hitmaker Expansion, a studio-grade software bundle that includes powerful mixing plug-ins and virtual instruments. Plus, you get an Avid Pro Tools Intro+ perpetual license, access to Ableton Live Lite and a free 3-month Splice Sounds subscription.
