Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 Studio 3rd Gen USB Audio Interface Bundle with Desktop Boom Arm Mic Stand, Mic Shock Mount for 44-47mm Microphones and Pop Filter (4 Items)

First off, there is a reason why focusrite scarlett is the most used interface, it is just great. The packed in mic is very nice, the mic stand works well, and the pop filter is a nice inclusion to help mic recordings sound better. The headphones in the kit are the weak point of this product, they are ok but they are just brand generic headphones with the focusrite logo slapped on. The headphones also can be somewhat uncomfortable as well. The interface of course is amazing because of how easy it is to use and of how good the recordings are. The included software, Pro Tools First, is very good, but I prefer to use audacity as my main recording software, but pro tools is still amazing. Overall, every part of this kit is amazing quality, except the headphones.

I purchased this to get back into recording. I had read the reviews and knew that this bundle no longer comes with Pro Tools. Albeton seems pretty good though. I'm using software I already had and it works perfectly with it. I had a mic hum when I first got it. I Google the issue and fiddled with the head unit and the hum went away and has not returned.All the components seem to work very well but I love the Scarlett it's simple, well built and easy to use. So far I've used the microphone and inputs for keyboard and guitar and very pleased with the value and quality of this bundle.

As beginner kits go, this one works great and is easy to use. The shock mount is plastic and cheap, but does still reduce vibrations. The bendable arm is cheap as well, takes a lot of muscle to adjust but it does get the job done. You can clamp it to a table or an adjustable display stand. The microphone itself is good enough to sound like you're in a studio. You don't need a $1000+ mike unless you're a professional. I really like the design to screw in the end of the mike to a stand if you're not using the shock mount. Overall, it's exactly what I needed to record voiceovers from my home studio.

Originally purchased for my daughter's continued online music lessons thanks to COVID-19, I spent some time recording some samples of my own.First, this took a whopping 17 minutes from unpacking, booting the laptop and setting it up in Garage Band, Logic and even in Audacity on my Linux laptop.Second, we tried it over some online meeting software with her music teachers (voice & piano) and there was so little lag that they were able to play and sing together live. With the audio hooked directly in and the quality of the equipment the sound on both sides was perfect and we were able to record the lessons easily.Third, I just sold away my 2 other mixers. The audio quality coming from this blew away my old equipment that I had purchased for $500 not too long ago. I had absolutely zero issues and had an increase in the quality of the input that resulted in better production output.I'm absolutely blown away, especially for the price. The mic isn't bad, but it's not top quality. Most people getting started in music won't notice a difference and it's perfect for a home studio. The quality is great, but it's an easy upgrade to another microphone later if you ever outgrow it.I'm recommending this to absolutely everyone I know and the audio samples I sent to some friends in a professional orchestra already ordered some for home and on-the-go.

My dad recommended this interface for me to start with. This is a GREAT bundle and worth the money. Set up is pretty easy for the most part and functions well. But the cord that connects to the interface is getting loose after a couple months. But again this is GREAT! I love the design.

I started to use this interface on a six-year-old mid-end hp laptop running AV Linux. I'm new to home recording and this is my first experience with an interface. While the "included" software is for Windows and Mac users, this interface works with Linux right out of the box with Ardour, JACK, etc. My first test recordings of three tracks (Hydrogen drums, bass guitar direct, and lead guitar direct), with plugins for compression, reverb, and overdrive, and a rough stereo mix, resulted in a very clean signal beginning to end. The unit is physically solid and high quality. For the price, you can't beat its super quiet preamp, and I have yet to try its Air feature with this bundle's included CM25 mic, which from the reviews I've seen, is a very good condenser mic for the price, too.Mic boom stand works well enough, but the isolation mount, in my opinion, doesn't provide enough isolation from bumps and vibrations. Further testing is required for me to determine its efficacy compared to other isolation mounts.

Muy sencillo perfecto para viajar para llevarlo a cualquier lado

Being new to audio recording systems this is the perfect choice. I’ve noticed it’s a respected brand/system in the industry, as it’s referenced often as being a good one to have. In fact, it was relatively simple to connect and get started. (If only it came with a tutorial about editing and mastering audiobook files. That’s a whole other story. But at least, while I learn how to do that, this system perf a well. Also, all the components seem to be well-made.
