Features
The 4Pre audio interface has four next-generation, high-performance preamps
allowing you to hear every nuance and capture clear and powerful audio with a preamp design that
brings masses of headroom, low distortion and low noise. Two new and improved extremely high-
performance A-D and D-A converters create tighter mixes, deliver extremely low noise and high
dynamic range and make more accurate recordings. Two true-to-life headphone outputs inspire
artists to hear every nuance, and evoke better vocal performances and two JFET instrument inputs
mimic guitar amp inputs to capture the true character and natural tone of guitars. The 4Pre
is also a MIDI interface, allowing your computer to connect to other MIDI equipment in your studio.
4Pre brings collaborators together, with options to record up to 18 input channels
simultaneously. Expandable using ADAT, you can connect devices such as Clarett OctoPre, with eight
channels of digital expandability, perfect for every stage of your creative journey.
The accompanying software application,
Focusrite Control
, is designed to let you easily configure the
4Pre with signal routings appropriate for most common recording tasks. For more complex
situations, it provides extensive routing and monitoring options, as well as the ability to control global
hardware settings such as sample rate and synchronisation. You can download
