Huge Focusrite Sound in a Small Package

The Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 USB audio interface gives you a ton of flexibility for a portable interface. Two vibrant Focusrite mic/instrument preamps are right on the front panel where you need them, while the back panel hosts two additional line inputs and four line outputs. With MIDI I/O and two channels of S/PDIF I/O, the Scarlett 6i6 is a perfect foundation for home or project studios that may need to expand in the future. And with its rugged metal unibody design, the Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 is perfect for recording on the go.

  • A smart I/O configuration for small-format recording
  • Powerful signal management
  • Software to start recording right out of the box
A smart I/O configuration for small-format recording

The Scarlett 6i6 is a smart interface for small-format recording tasks. There are many compact interfaces out there, but few combine XLR inputs for your mics, hi-Z inputs for instruments, line inputs, and even S/PDIF digital I/O. At Sweetwater, we know that flexible connectivity is crucial even when you're recording one track at a time, and that makes the Scarlett 6i6 a smart solution.

Powerful signal management

To keep all of those channels under control, Focusrite included their acclaimed MixControl software for ultimate versatility. Create up to six separate mono mixes or three stereo mixes, each routable to any of the Scarlett 6i6's outputs. Save your mixes for instant recall later on. Re-route your signal path without having to replug your whole studio. The Scarlett 6i6 was built with flexibility in mind.

Software to start recording right out of the box

Focusrite didn't stop at stellar sound quality and flexible routing with the Scarlett - you also get a powerful software bundle that includes the Red 2 and Red 3 Plug-in Suite, as well as Softube's Time and Tone Pack, featuring the Drawmer S73 Intelligent Master Processor, TSAR-1R Reverb, Tube Delay, Saturation Knob, and Multi-band compressor. Also onboard: the Scarlett VST/AU/RTAS plug-in suite featuring Focusrite's acclaimed Scarlett compression, reverb, gating, and EQ! These plug-ins give you access to the vibe of classic Focusrite studio hardware with the flexibility of software processing. Factor in the included Ableton Live Lite production and performance software, and you have a complete music production suite.

Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 USB Audio Interface Features:
  • USB 2.0 audio interface with excellent I/O configuration for home and project studios
  • Up to 24-bit/96kHz AD/DA for pristine sound quality
  • Rugged metal unibody construction and great-feeling knobs give you the assurance only well-built gear can provide
  • Unique halo gain indicators make it easy for you to check settings at a glance
  • Flexible routing options make it easy to change your signal flow without re-plugging cables
  • MixControl software makes it simple to create low-latency monitor mixes on the fly
  • Included software bundle adds a ton of value with free software, loops, and plug-ins
The Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 gives you huge Focusrite sound at a budget-friendly price!

If you're like a lot of the recording engineers here at Sweetwater, then you probably grew up with stories of the legendary Focusrite Forte console and its ISA preamps. Our relationship with Focusrite is extremely tight, and we regularly enjoy everything from the inside scoop on new gear to fish and chips when they stop by Sweetwater. While Focusrite still produces the classic analog preamps, EQs, and compressors we love, our Sales Engineers are just as excited to introduce our customers to their remarkable RedNet network audio platform, and we have worked with Focusrite to outfit studios, churches, venues, and schools with this awesome technology in action. From everyday audio interfaces to full system designs, if you want Focusrite gear, Sweetwater has you covered.
