Four of our most detailed, ultra-low-noise preamps.

Plug into 18i16’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 dynamic performances. 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 18i16 handle your levels. Auto Gain sets your levels 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 to 18i16’s Hi-Z inputs for an amp-like feel, plug synths and grooveboxes into the eight line inputs, or use the four line outputs for your favourite outboard gear.

Control MIDI devices.

Use 18i16 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 when using the S/PDIF and ADAT connections.

Mix your way, with independent outputs.

With 18i16, headphones, monitors, and line outs each get their own mix, so you can create the perfect studio setup for your speakers, the artist’s headphones, or outboard gear — controllable anywhere in the studio via the Focusrite Control 2 apps.

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 our 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.

Alt monitor switching lets you A/B your mixes between two speaker pairs — essential for studio setups with multiple monitors.

All the software you need to make a hit record.
