Equally comfortable in the studio or as part of a mobile rig, the Focusrite Clarett 4Pre USB desktop 18x8 USB Type-C audio/MIDI interface combines 24-bit / 192 kHz AD/DA conversion with low-latency monitoring and four Air-enabled microphone preamps that can model the sound of the company's classic ISA preamps. With low noise (-128 dB EIN), low distortion, and a 118 dB dynamic range, the high-performance mic preamps deliver a clean, open, and transparent sound, for accurate reproduction of the original performance.

In addition to the four mic/line preamps (two with Hi-Z capability), the interface offers four rear-panel line inputs, an optical ADAT port for digital input expansion, S/PDIF stereo digital I/O, and MIDI I/O for integration of MIDI equipment such as a keyboard or drum machine. Four line-level outputs and two stereo headphone outputs let you properly hook up monitors, headphones, and more. The Clarett 4Pre USB includes a software package featuring Ableton Live Lite, Focusrite and Softube plug-ins, 2GB of royalty-free samples, and more. Also provided is the Focusrite Control software that enables you to configure routing and monitor mixes from Mac and Windows computers, or iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch mobile devices.

Great for Project Studios and Expanded Home Setups

With its desk-friendly size, USB Type-C connectivity, and expandable inputs via ADAT and S/PDIF, the Clarett 4Pre USB is well suited for project studios and home setups in need of extra inputs and outputs without sacrificing a bunch of table space.

Pristine, High-Resolution Conversion

Capture more detail than ever before; the carefully engineered design means Clarett 4Pre USB gives you stunning results. At a class-leading 118 dB dynamic range, the low-noise 24-bit / 192kHz converters give your recordings clarity and nuance.

Clarett Mic Preamps with Customizable Tone

Built upon 30 years of mic pre mastery, the Clarett preamp is the finest Focusrite preamp built into a USB audio interface. Air mode, with impedance switching, gives new color to your mics, emulating ISA's transformer-based mic pre to bring out unique high-end detail. Clarett 4Pre USB's high-bandwidth ultralow-distortion design allows you to capture incredible sound, whatever your setup. Phantom power is switchable for channels 1-2 and 3-4, so you can use dynamic or condenser microphones as you desire.

Software Instrument/Line Input Switches

At the press of a button in the control software, the first two 1/4" inputs can be used for line-level sources (like a mixer's stereo output or the line outs from guitar and bass amps) or directly connecting instruments such as electric guitar and bass, synthesizers, or drum machines—no need for DI boxes.

Rear-Panel Line Inputs

With four balanced 1/4" line inputs on the back of the Clarett 4Pre USB, you can patch in line-level sources such as external mic preamps, an outboard mixer, or synthesizer sound modules while leaving the front-panel inputs free for direct connection of mics, instruments, or other line-level sources.

Straightforward Controls and Level Indication

The Clarett 4Pre USB's independent gain knobs and bicolor gain halo meters mean you'll have no trouble getting set up and dialing in the perfect levels.

Dual Independent Headphone and Line Outputs

The four balanced 1/4" TRS line outputs on the rear panel enable connectivity with active studio monitors and outboard gear. To allow critical listening through headphones for two people, there are two front-panel 1/4" headphone jacks. Separate knobs are provided for quick and independent adjustment of the monitor and headphone volumes.

MIDI I/O

Spin the Clarett 4Pre USB around, and you'll find traditional 5-pin MIDI I/O ports, perfect for hooking up a MIDI keyboard controller, a synthesizer/workstation, or a sound module, for MIDI recording, editing, and sequencing.

8-Channel Digital Input

In addition to having flexible analog I/O, the Clarett 4Pre USB offers a TOSLINK optical input, which can accept an 8-channel ADAT input at up to 48 kHz (four channels at 88.2 / 96 kHz) or a stereo S/PDIF source. Connect any external microphone preamp equipped with an ADAT or S/PDIF output to this optical input to record additional microphones.

Stereo S/PDIF Digital I/O

The interface also includes S/PDIF stereo digital input and output ports via coaxial jacks. Use the S/PDIF input to record the output of a digital DJ mixer or an external mic preamp outfitted with an A/D converter and S/PDIF output. Run the Clarett's S/PDIF output to a high-end D/A converter for extra processing or mastering with analog gear.

External Power Supply

The Clarett 4Pre USB includes an external power supply to ensure its proper operation. The interface can be connected to your Mac/Windows computer with either of the two supplied USB cables (one Type-C and one USB Type-C to Type-A).

Powerful Software Control

Route your audio, cue mix, loopback, and monitor mixes from your Mac or Windows computer via the Focusrite Control desktop software. Tap into even more convenience by using the Focusrite Control iOS app on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch, to remotely control your Clarett 4Pre when connected to Focusrite Control Desktop.
