Upgrade your studio with the Focusrite Clarett+ OctoPre from Sweetwater today!Capture the whole band with professional Focusrite sound If you already own other Focusrite multichannel preamps, the Clarett+ OctoPre fits right into your existing setup. Expanding your I/O via ADAT will allow for proper tracking sessions with ample preamp inputs to capture the excitement and interaction of an entire band playing together with the classic analog clarity and punch of the legendary Focusrite Studio Console. Boasting a dynamic range of 118dB and an EIN (Equivalent Input Noise) rating of 129dBu, the organic sound of your source signals is preserved. The Clarett+ OctoPre’s fully balanced signal path ensures those signals are rendered cleanly and with negligible noise levels.Eight Clarett+ mic preamps with analog Air Designed exclusively for the Clarett range, the upgraded preamps in the Clarett+ OctoPre deliver loads of pristine gain and vanishingly low noise. In addition, these preamps include Focusrite’s proprietary Air feature that breathes life into your recordings by switching in an analog model of the acclaimed transformer-based ISA 110 mic pres on the original Focusrite Studio Console. Activating Air changes the impedance to 2.2k ohms and engages two cumulative high shelves. Technically, it adds up to a 4dB high-frequency boost, but make no mistake: Air sounds quite different from EQ. If you’ve always wanted vocals that shimmer with presence and silky air, then try recording with the Clarett+ OctoPre with Air engaged. You will be impressed.Plugged in and ready to rock Each channel of this Clarett+ interface is equipped with a dedicated insert that lets you keep your favorite rack equipment plugged in and ready to track through. This flexible insert setup lets you add analog gear to your signal chains as needed, but all Clarett+ interfaces also include the Hitmaker Expansion, a studio-grade software bundle that includes powerful mixing plug-ins and virtual instruments. Plus, you get a 3-month subscription to Avid Pro Tools Artist, access to Abelton Live Lite, and a free 3-month Splice Sounds subscription.
