Product Information

Plug your guitar into Scarlett Solo's Hi-Z instrument input, it feels just like an amp. Connect the CM25 MkIII studio condenser mic to Solo’s mic pre and it sounds great right away. Listen in detail through the SH-450 headphones. Scarlett brings Focusrite’s professional sound quality to wherever you make your music.

For standout lead vocal and instrument tracks, Scarlett’s re-engineered Air mode takes your sound’s unique character and brings it to the front of the mix, adding truly musical presence and rich harmonic drive, just like a classic console in a big money studio. You'll never want to record without it. Scarlett’s Dynamic Gain Halos make setting levels quicky and easy, helping you set the perfect level and get great recordings every time.

Hit the red button and you’re recording with 192kHz, 24-bit converters direct from Focusrite’s flagship RedNet interfaces – as found in countless high-end studios around the world. Squeeze every last drop of detail out of your recordings without sacrificing any sound quality.

For the best sound straight away, Scarlett Solo Studio includes Focusrite’s CM25 MkIII studio condenser mic and SH-450 closed back headphones. You can use the CM25 MkIII for almost anything, but you’ll love how it sounds on vocals and guitar thanks to its bright and detailed character. With the SH-450 Focusrite have created their most accurate studio headphones, with plush pads and a soft-touch headband design to keep you focused, not fatigued. If you haven’t got a mic stand yet, Focusrite have even included a rather clever cardboard stand so you can get started right away.
