Clarett 4Pre 400pxFocusrite Clarett 4PreFocusrite is proud to introduce the Clarett+ range of premium-quality USB audio interfaces for PC and Mac, which build on the strengths of the previous Clarett ranges. With improved converters and professional quality mic preamps, Clarett+ 2Pre, 4Pre and 8Pre interfaces inspire producers, engineers, and artists to make their best music.  

The ultimate recording preamp: Clarett+ interfaces feature professional quality mic preamps, which have very high headroom, low distortion, and ultra-low noise; so exceptionally pure recordings can be captured, whether miking guitars, recording vocals or tracking drums.  

All-analogue Air: All-analogue Air with impedance switching and relay control brings clarity and presence, and makes vocals shine, by emulating the ISA 110 mic preamp from the classic Focusrite Studio Console.  

Clear just got clearer: Improved high-dynamic-range A-D and D-A conversion with ultra-low distortion provides clearer mixes and stunning detail at all levels.  

Hear the truth: Improved headphone outputs and DAC performance offer powerful, transparent sound at all levels — on any headphones — so producers, engineers and artists can make their best mix decisions and inspire amazing performances.  

All the tools needed: A collection of software, including mixing plug-ins and virtual instruments, offers all the tools needed for the user to master their craft.
