Focusrite Clarett+ 8Pre

Clarett+ 8Pre is the complete interface designed to bring pure analogue sound to your studio.

The eight Clarett preamps have been meticulously engineered to bring authentic large-format studio sound to any recording session. All-analogue Air mode, with impedance switching, recreates the legendary effect of Focusrite's ISA mic pres, adding clarity and presence to drums, guitars and vocals.

Two high-impedance JFET instrument inputs preserve your guitar’s true character and feel just like an amp. Independent A-D and D-A converters offer ultra-low distortion and up to 124dB dynamic range. Ten balanced outputs are hum-free for pristine monitoring, mixing and mastering with studio monitors. Eight channels in and eight out over ADAT allow 8Pre to grow with your studio.

And it comes with some of the best-loved tools in the business – with plugins from legendary Auto-Tune® creators Antares®, Brainworx®, Softube®, Landr, XLN Audio®, Relab and more.
