Focusrite SCARLETT2i2ST-4G — Complete USB Recording Bundle

The Focusrite SCARLETT2i2ST-4G is a USB audio interface bundle crafted for solo musicians, podcasters, and home-studio producers. At its centre sits the Scarlett 2i2 4th Gen interface, matched with a CM25 MkIII condenser microphone, SH-450 headphones, a 3 m XLR cable, and a USB cable. Creators who want clean conversion, dependable preamps, and straightforward setup right out of the box will appreciate this package.

What Sets This Interface Apart

Delivering 69 dB of clean gain, the 4th-generation preamps provide enough headroom for ribbon and dynamic microphones. With Air Mode, classic studio console character is added, bringing harmonic drive and extra presence to vocals and acoustic instruments. For worry-free recording, Clip Safe monitors levels up to 96 000 times per second, adjusting gain automatically to prevent overloads, while Auto Gain quickly finds the right recording level with one touch.
