Product Information

The producer’s Scarlett

Featuring converters taken directly from Focusrite’s broadcast-ready RedNet range, Scarlett 16i16 is the industry-leading USB audio interface for project studios. It features 16 inputs and 16 outputs — including two mic preamps, Hi-Z instrument and line inputs, ADAT, SPDIF, and MIDI. 

Capture every detail

The 4th Generation preamps offer an impressive 69dB of headroom, so you can capture the most dynamic performances. With a total of six analogue inputs, you have ample connectivity for outboard gear. Powerful outputs ensure clean, ultra-low distortion playback; plus, two brand new custom-designed headphone amps which can drive high-impedance headphones.

Class-leading audio quality

The Scarlett 16i16 incorporates completely revamped audio circuitry, equipped with the same professional-grade 24-bit, 192kHz converters found in Focusrite’s RedNet range, used in top recording studios and broadcast facilities worldwide. Experience unparalleled clarity with 122dB of dynamic range to capture everything from a whisper to a jet engine.

Enhance your sound with Air mode

Re-engineered Air mode takes your sound’s unique character and brings it to the front of the mix, adding musical presence or rich harmonic drive to vocals and acoustic instruments; replicating the sound of driving a classic studio console.

Streamline your workflow with Auto Gain

Scarlett 16i16 features unique workflow tools designed to benefit engineers of all levels. With Auto Gain, in just a few seconds, Scarlett will set the perfect level for whatever you’re recording. Set usable levels for multiple microphones instantly, so you can get complex sessions up and running quickly. 

Clip Safe: Never lose a take

With Clip Safe actively monitoring levels up to 96,000 times per second, Scarlett 16i16 automatically adjusts gain to prevent clipping so you avoid introducing any unwanted artefacts from hard limiting. Never miss a crucial take, especially in high-pressure recording environments such as live shows and location recordings.

The Focusrite Control 2 software simplifies setting up routing, levels, monitor mixes, and other functions on Scarlett 16i16 in addition to the desktop application, the iOS and Android FocusriteControl 2 apps,so engineers and performers can adjust monitor mixes and mic pre-gains without having to return to the computer.
