Focusrite Scarlett Solo (3rd Gen)

Third-generation USB audio interface

Compact, portable, studio-grade sound. The Scarlett has long been one of the best-selling audio interfaces on the market. Thanks to its affordable price and premium-grade sound, the Scarlett series has been a fan favourite of many musicians, from beginners to professionals. The new and improved design features revamped preamps, upgraded audio fidelity, new interactive onboarding and rock-solid, low-latency USB driver.

The Solo features a single XLR input for accommodating an XLR connection. It also features built-in 48V Phantom Power, allowing you to record using studio-grade condenser microphones.

New and improved preamps deliver pristine sound

Focusrite continue the tradition of creating the best quality audio interfaces they can. With top class components that help their interfaces stand out from the crowd.
