Features
The . Clarett . 2Pre . hardware . interface . provides . the . means . for . connecting . microphones, . musical .
instruments, .line .level .audio .signals .and .digital .audio .signals .to .a .computer .through .the .computer’s .
Thunderbolt™ . port. . The . signals . at . the . physical . inputs . can . be . routed . to . your . audio . recording . .
software ./ .digital .audio .workstation .(referred .to .throughout .this .user .guide .as .the .“DAW”); .similarly, .
the .outputs .from .the .DAW .can .be .configured .to .appear .at .the .unit’s .physical .outputs.
Audio .sources .– .mics, .instruments, .etc., .can .be .recorded .into .your .DAW .and .then .played .back .from .
there .through .amplifiers .and .speakers, .powered .monitors, .headphones, .a .mixer .or .any .other .analogue .
or .digital .audio .equipment .that .you .wish .to .use. .Although .all .inputs .and .outputs .on .the .Clarett .2Pre .
are .routed .directly .to .and .from .your .DAW .for .recording .and .playback, .you .can .configure .the .routing .
within .your .DAW, .or .within .the .Focusrite .Control .application, .in .order .to .meet .your .precise .needs.
The .Clarett .2Pre .also .has .connectors .for .sending .and .receiving .MIDI .data; .this .lets .you .use .it .as .a .
MIDI .interface .between .your .computer .and .other .items .of .MIDI .equipment .in .your .system.
An . important . feature . of . the . Clarett . 2Pre . is . the . new . design . of . analogue . preamplifier. . In . addition .
to .their .class-leading .dynamic .range .and .ability .to .provide .all .the .gain .you’re .ever .likely .to .need, .
the . circuitry . now . includes . an . exciting . new . AIR . function. . Individually . selectable . on . each . channel, .
AIR . subtly . modifies . the . pre-amp’s . frequency . response . to . model . the . impedance . and . resonance .
characteristics . of . Focusrite’s . classic . transformer-based . ISA . mic . preamps. . When . recording . with .
good .quality .microphones, .you .will .notice .an .enhanced .clarity .and .definition .in .the .important .mid .to .
high .frequency .range, .just .where .it .is .most .needed .for .vocals .and .many .acoustic .instruments.
The .accompanying .software .application, .Focusrite Control, .is .designed .to .require .a .minimal .amount .
of .user .interaction, .letting .you .easily .configure .the .Clarett .2Pre .with .signal .routings .appropriate .for .
the .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.
.
All .inputs .on .the .Clarett .2Pre .are .routed .directly .to .your .DAW .software .for .recording, .but .Focusrite .
Control .also .allows .you .to .route .these .signals .internally .within .the .device .to .the .outputs .so .that .you .
can .monitor .the .audio .signals .with .ultra-low .latency .- .before .they .arrive .at .your .DAW, .should .you .
need .to .do .so. .
