Features We Love:

Capture Your Performance

The Scarlett 8i6 features a pair of combination inputs and four line-level inputs. This allows for various recording combinations, which for example could include two singers with a digital piano recorded in stereo, a solo musician with one vocal and a guitar, or a podcast setup with two people talking and and using a pair of turntables. Singers can also take advantage of the Air mode which adds some high end definition to the tone of your microphone.

Outputs

With four line-level outputs, the 8i6 can be an essential part of your stage and studio setups.

In the studio, 8i6 could be used to send mixes to two pairs of monitors, or a mix to one pair of monitors with the other four outputs being used for FX sends where they're fed into two separate stereo effects units, returning to the four line-inputs.

On stage 8i6 can be used for sending multitrack stems to the PA, for example, you could have a backing track with bass, keyboards and backing vocals, each individually sent to the PA to be mixed by the engineer, and use the fourth output for a clicktrack which is sent to your drummer's headphones.
