Best Interface I have ever used!!!

I read hundreds of reviews of countless different audio interfaces. Thankfully I chose this wonderful unit. I have had this for more than 8 years now, and is still going strong with no issues! I use this interface with Logic Pro on Mac. Original set up and synchronizing settings with the mac was a tiny bit of a challenge, but nothing a few phone calls couldn’t fix. Once it’s all set, you are good to go! I love how easy it is to work with this interface! I mainly have 2 keyboards running stereo ( 4 cables ), a microphone recording saxophone. For outputs i have 3 sets of headphones, 2 speaker monitors, and normal Logitech speaker system with an adapter to plug into the interface! This interface runs all of that with no latency, and excellent sound quality! This is a very powerful unit, and will handle most music studio setups, whether you’re a beginner or looking to add to your collection! This is also perfect size for most studio desks, this interface can be mounted too! This is definitely best bang for the buck! Im hoping to get another 8+ years out of this! Once this one is done, I will buy another.

Best 8-mic interface out there

Fantastic audio interface, great sounding preamps and high quality signal processing. For the price, you won't find a better 8 mic pre interface. Perfect for budget home studios trying to break into live drum tracking. High quality build too, it's quite heavy and durable for those who would bring it out to practice spaces or mobile studio owners.

Great quality piece of gear for a home studio

Great quality piece of gear for a home studio. My son has been making drum covers as of late and with 8 channels the Scarlett handles everything very well. He's using it with a newer Mac mini and Logic Pro X and the quality of the recordings have been pretty stunning.

Great audio quality

System is easy to use it tends to have a little bit of latency unless you have a very fast computer with a lot of RAM. The headphone amp leaves a little bit to be desired and so does the playback through the mains. Great for home use. I switched over to this instead of my fire studio because I finally got tired of Mac changing their inputs every new generation. Having this run with standard USB should give me some longevity.

Must have for Individual Track recording

I bought this from Guitar Center today, so I've only had a few hours to play around with it. Initial impressions are a bit negative. I was disappointed at how necessary the Focusrite Control software is needed for this device. It wouldn't even give me sound until I configured my outputs through this software. After I found a good workflow through this software, it works just fine!I'll probably come back when I have a full band playing through this thing. Using this interface with Ableton was absolutely a breeze! ProTools... well, I still have learning to do with how to configure all of ProTool's tricks. Definitely worth every penny though. Inputs and Outputs work brilliantly, and it's an absolute must if you're going to be recording different instruments to different tracks. Also great for recording separate mics for podcasts and pretty much anything where you need to record mics separately. I really wish I would've purchased this product four years ago.

Beware if you plan to use this with a 2012 mac pro...

I got this for a 2012 mac pro and found it was extremely unreliable with the built-in USB ports... I could only use the device for about 90 seconds before it would fall off the bus and leave notes hanging.... In order to make this device reliable, I had to install a usb 3.0 pcie card. After plugging into the usb 3 add-in pcie card, everything worked fine for hours, so this makes me sure that focusrite only tested with modern hardware and not the hardware that people are likely to have in their home studios given what Apple charges for a black trashcan with dated cpus. On the other hand, if you've got a nice new usb controller on your computer, it will probably work fine.

Focusrite is first class not oonly in their equipment but also with support,.

This interface is great with really great sounding mic pre amp and easy to work with. Not so impressed with the Pro Tools First, ok to learn DAW but limited upload to cloud and a hand full of other small issues for a person to be able to perfect. Focusrite however is first class, even had tech call me when faced with a simple issue and that is well beyond average. Techs usually only answer calls,not return a call.

Nothing to really complain about

After a few months, I have nothing but good things to say about my 18i20 thus far. Even though the control software wasn't immediately intuitive and some programs needed some finicking to interface properly the build quality, sound quality, and overall experience have been very positive.I'm looking forward to doing some bigger projects are pushing the equipment a bit more than I have so far!
