Overview
The second generation Scarlett 2i4 is our most versatile USB-powered audio interface, ideal for anyone needing a cue mix for performing or recording with a computer. It is compact yet flexible, with two natural-sounding Scarlett mic preamps, super-low latency*, MIDI I/o, four analogue outputs and the same class-leading sound quality and digital conversion as the rest of the latest Scarlett range. Take it anywhere, connect by a single USB cable to a computer, plug two microphones or instruments straight in, and easily record studio quality audio against a cue mix. Focus rite is the perfect partner for Pro Tools, and to celebrate this Scarlett 2i4 now comes with an exclusive version of Pro Tools | First Focus rite Creative Pack, as well as Ableton Live Lite. It is also compatible with all other major DAWs, on Mac and PC. * Super-low roundtrip latency was measured at 2. 74ms, working at 96kHz with a 32 samples buffer on Logic Pro X, running on a Mac Pro and OS 10. 11
