Better, Faster, Easier
Focusrite's Clarett low latency USB range features the same specially designed high-performance, low-noise (-128dB EIN) mic pres as its Thunderbolt predecessor. The low-distortion, ultra-linear design of these pres guarantees a clean, open and clear recording signal, giving you as accurate a representation of your recording as you could wish for.
Featuring a massive 119dB dynamic range, the Clarett can now interface with your Mac or PC via USB 2.0 (or above) ports, and bring you decades of analogue circuit design experience to deliver a superior signal path.

New Feature: Bus Power
Clarett USB 2Pre USB interface can be bus powered after updating the firmware to build 1246 via Focusrite Control 2.3.3 or later. Bus powering is highly convenient for the small, portable interface, because users can benefit from the same optimum audio performance, without the need for a power supply!
Bigger on the Inside
Like its Thunderbolt predecessor, the Clarett 2Pre USB is a 10-in, 4-out audio interface, with two Mic/Line/Instrument inputs which allow you to record anything from condenser mics, to super-hot pickups without any unwanted distortion or clipping. You also get an ADAT input which supports up to an additional eight channels, two monitor outputs (with anti-thump technology), a headphone output with volume control, two line outputs, and even a MIDI I/O socket.
Air-Enabled
Both mic preamps in the Clarett 2Pre USB are Air-Enabled, which means they can accurately reproduce the input impedance, clarity, and frequency response curve of Focusrite's original ISA mic preamp!
