Focusrite Clarett OctoPre Eight-Channel Microphone Pre and AD/DA Converter

Focusrite Clarett OctoPre Converter Features:

• Eight Clarett Mic Pres With Extra Air - The eight mic pres have been designed specifically for the Clarett range, with plenty of gain, yet low noise and distortion - and great sound quality. They are Air-enabled, so can reproduce the input impedance, clarity and frequency response curve of our original ISA mic preamp.
• Mic, Line and Instrument Inputs - The front panel includes dual instrument inputs featuring extra headroom to handle the loudest pickup, while the rear panel includes universal XLR/jack connectors for the remaining auto-switching mic/line inputs.
• Insert Points - Each input has its own switched insert point for single-cable connection of compression, equalization and other outboard analogue processing - with hardwired relay bypass so you can leave outboard gear or a patchbay connected ready to access at the press of a button.
• Eight Outputs - The Clarett OctoPre offers up to eight ADAT digital channels feeding 25-pin DSUB rear-panel analogue outputs, making it useful for mixing as well as tracking. The line outputs can optionally provide feeds from the mic pres - useful for feeding a live console while recording the digital outputs.
• Precision Digital Conversion - The Clarett OctoPre's precision 24-bit converters operate at standard sample rates all the way up to 192kHz - ideal for hi-res audio - with up to 118dB (A-D)/119dB (D-A) dynamic range. Hear your recordings sound better than you've ever heard them sound before.
• Enjoy Two Years Of Warranty - Commitment To Customers - Wherever you happen to be in the world, you can rely on Focusrite's two-year warranty if any Focusrite hardware needs repairing or replacing due to a manufacturing fault.
