The read
What's actually worth knowing.
- You get one mic input and one instrument input, so you can record one thing at a time. If you need to record multiple sources simultaneously, you'd need a larger interface.
- The interface runs on USB power alone with no external power supply needed, making it genuinely portable for recording on the go.
- It includes a decent collection of software like Pro Tools Intro, Ableton Live Lite, and various plugins, so you're not starting from scratch after purchase.
As of Aug 14, the Focusrite Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen USB Audio Interface is overpriced at $119.99 — versus a $112.77 typical price and a $67.95 12-month low, based on Amazon's own price history.
