Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 USB Audio Interface Soundcard 2nd Gen

Product Description The Scarlett 2i4 hardware interface provides the means for connecting microphones, musical instruments or line level audio signals to a computer running Mac OS or Windows. The signals at the physical inputs can be routed to your audio recording software / digital audio workstation (referred to throughout this user guide as the “DAW”) at up to 24-bit, 96 kHz resolution; similarly, the DAW’s monitor or recorded output will appear at the unit’s physical outputs. Audio sources – mics, instruments, etc. – connected to the physical inputs can be recorded in the DAW and then routed from your DAW to the physical outputs. The 2i4 is equipped with four audio output channels, which can be connected to an amplifier and speakers, powered monitors, headphones, DJ or other type of mixer, or any other analogue audio equipment that you wish to use. Although all inputs and outputs on the Scarlett 2i4 are routed directly to and from your DAW for recording and playback, you can configure the routing within your DAW in order to meet your needs. A Direct Monitoring feature lets you hear what you are playing without the effects of computer latency. The 2i4 also acts as a convenient MIDI interface between your computer and other MIDI equipment. For DJs, the two pairs of outputs make it simple to interface the stereo output from a laptop running DJ software to two channels of a DJ mixer.
