★PROFESSIONAL QUALITY PREAMP This versatile and adaptable 8-channel ADAT microphone preamp features Clarett+ circuitry, delivering professional-quality sound. Its wide-range, low-distortion, pristine sound is inspired by classic Focusrite studio consoles, and its versatile design is reminiscent of classic Focusrite studio consoles. Focusrite's years of experience in mic preamp design ensures professional sound quality for guitarists and engineers seeking a truly authentic sound. ● Record with clarity down to the finest detail. Achieve clear recordings for every session. Equipped with eight low-distortion, low-noise microphone preamps with fully balanced circuits, it delivers professional Focusrite sound for your sessions. The true value of Claret+ lies in the analog Air system, featuring the same sound relay control circuitry as Focusrite consoles. Capture every drum beat, make vocals shine, and record with precision and clarity. When Air is enabled, the Clarett+ OctoPre input switches impedance and adds two stacked high shelves for a total 4dB boost in the high frequencies, recreating the sound of the legendary ISA 110 microphone preamp found in Focusrite consoles. ●Your sound, right there. From jazz to heavy metal drums, you'll hear the performer's image captured exactly as they are, with a clean input signal free of unwanted coloration. The generous headroom lets you focus on your session, minimizing the time spent worrying about gain levels. It captures the energy of your live session, delivering a consistently realistic sound. Insert your favorite outboard gear Eight channel inserts make it easy to add external hardware to the signal path, with insert/bypass switching at the touch of a button—no patchbay required. ●A setup that suits your style Superior DA conversion preserves audio quality even when sending audio to external gear such as analog compressors, EQs, and effects. Process audio the way you always do and integrate outboard gear into your workflow to achieve ideal results. Connecting Clarett+ OctoPre and Clarett+ 8Pre via ADAT creates 16 channels of high-quality audio I/O. ●Natural guitar sound The instrument input, featuring a JFET circuit, faithfully reproduces the characteristics of your guitar. The wide input bandwidth preserves high-frequency purity, giving you the feeling of connecting directly to your amplifier. Recording a live band simultaneously captures the essence of each moment with a clear, clean, and realistic sound.
