The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- It has two microphone inputs with preamps and two instrument inputs, so you can plug in a mic and a guitar at the same time if you need to.
- The Air mode adds a presence boost to recordings, which can help vocals and acoustic instruments stand out, though it's an effect you'll want to use intentionally rather than on everything.
- It records up to 192kHz, which is higher than most people need, but the real benefit is the 24-bit depth that gives you more detail in your recordings compared to lower-bit interfaces.
As of Aug 15, the Focusrite SCARLETT 2I2 3rd Gen 192KHz USB Audio is a good price at $355 — versus a $345.55 typical price and a $149.99 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
