Eight detailed, ultra-low-noise preamps

Connect your studio to 18i20’s 4th-Generation remote-controlled preamps — Scarlett’s most transparent and detailed ever. 69dB of gain range provides all of the headroom you'll need to get the best result from the most intense multi-track recordings. Control preamp levels from anywhere in the studio using the Focusrite Control 2 apps, giving you the freedom to adjust settings remotely.

Auto Gain and Clip Safe

Let 18i20 handle your levels. Auto Gain will set all eight microphone preamp levels instantly and Clip Safe keeps them in the sweet spot, automatically tweaking the gain if you’re in danger of clipping. You'll never lose a take again.

All the I/O you need

Play your instruments

Connect a guitar directly to 18i20’s Hi-Z inputs for an amp-like feel, plug synths and grooveboxes into the eight line inputs, or route your favourite outboard gear through the ten line outputs.

Control MIDI devices

Use 18i20 as a MIDI interface to receive and send data to your favourite external MIDI-controllable equipment.

Expand your setup

Increase your channel count with up to 10 additional inputs and outputs by using the S/PDIF and ADAT connections. Dual ADAT supports eight channels of audio at 96kHz. The Word Clock output ensures your external gear stays perfectly synced.

Mix your way, with independent outputs

Take full control of your routing and mixing preferences using the Focusrite Control 2 apps, anywhere in the studio.

Dial in the perfect headphone mix for the artist, or route the signal directly to outboard gear to put the finishing touches on your mix.

Get that big console sound with two re-engineered Air modes

Presence mode boosts your signal’s high-end, bringing the sound to the front of the mix. Create intimate vocal recordings, capture every detail of acoustic guitars, and hear your drum overheads shimmer.

Presence and Harmonic Drive mode boosts mid-range harmonics in your sound, making its unique character shine through the mix. Try it on guitars, vocals, or anything else that needs a little more punch.

Huge 122dB dynamic range for incredible recordings

Scarlett delivers incredible audio quality, with converters direct from Focusrite's flagship RedNet interfaces — as found in high-end studios around the world.

Powerful sound, powerful control

Two custom-designed headphone amps deliver clear, powerful sound for high-impedance headphones, offering the best playback ever from a Scarlett. A built-in talkback mic ensures seamless communication to the artists, while alt monitor switching lets you A/B your mixes between two speaker pairs.

The Buy Now Pay Later option comprises a 36 month loan following a six month deferral period.

During the six-month deferral period, it is possible to pay off the loan, either by way of a lump sum or in smaller amounts. If the loan is partially repaid within six months, the remaining interest will be adjusted to reflect the new balance. If the loan is fully repaid within the six-month deferral period, then no interest is payable, however, a £29 early settlement fee is payable in respect of repayments within these six months.

Following the six-month deferral period, Novuna Personal Finance will initiate a monthly direct debit payment for the remaining duration of the loan. Interest will be charged at a rate of 18.9% APR (representative) on outstanding balances (backdated to the first date of the loan). Novuna Personal Finance will send a reminder letter approximately one month before the six-month deferral period is due to elapse.
