Download the Softube Time and Tone Pack for free from their download area on focusrite.com; valid with all registered purchases of Focusrite Scarlett, Saffire, and Clarett Interfaces that were made on or after September 1st, 2015

Softube Time and Tone Pack is a unique plug-in bundle (valued at $198), which includes three of Softube’s

world class plug-ins: a reverb, a delay and a distortion:

 

TSAR-1R: Add space, depth and width to your sound—TSAR-1R is a reverb plug-in with world class sound

and extreme ease of use. With a single slider, you can take TSAR-1R from realistic and three-dimensional

rooms to dramatic and dreamlike halls. 

 

Tube Delay: A tasty echo effect that can go from clean to rude by overdriving its three modeled tube stages.

Create anything from realistic room echoes to rockabilly style slapbacks—or take it all the way into dub

reggae echo madness.

 

Saturation Knob: Add grit and warmth to any sound source with this modeled output distortion unit. Use

it to fatten up bass lines, add some harmonics and shimmer to vocals, or simply destroy your drum loop.

Simply turn up the knob to add saturation, and use the three-position switch to alter the distortion character.

USB 2.0 audio interface with eight Focusrite mic preamps

Focusrite’s Scarlett 18i20 is the latest in the company’s new generation of multi-channel USB-based audio interfaces, featuring eight award-winning Focusrite microphone preamplifiers, designed specifically for the computer interface environment, delivering legendary Focusrite sound quality.

Focusrite’s mic preamps are found in the world’s top studios and give the 18i20 an unequalled level of performance, with low noise, minimal distortion and enormous dynamic range. The Scarlett preamps offer exceptional headroom, and two front-panel inputs also offer 10dB pad buttons to handle the highest-level inputs without distortion.

Comprehensive inputs/outputs

With 18 inputs and 20 outputs, Scarlett 18i20 includes enough I/O to handle the vast majority of day-to-day studio tasks at maximum quality, with maximum flexibility. Scarlett 18i20 features six combo XLR/jack mic/line inputs plus two front-panel XLR/jack mic/line/instrument inputs with 10dB pad buttons, 10 analogue line outputs, two independent headphone outputs on the front panel, and ADAT and S/PDIF digital I/O, plus MIDI I/O and Word Clock out for digital synchronisation when required.

The ADAT interface can be used to bring in digital sources or to add extra preamps such as Focusrite’s OctoPre Mk II, bringing the mic pre complement to 16 channels, ideal for recording a complete band and minimising overdubs. 

Class leading digital conversion

This prodigious I/O capability is backed by Focusrite’s class-leading precision digital conversion technology with JetPLL™ jitter-reduction at sample rates up to 96 kHz, 24-bit, to ensure that you get the very highest quality into and out of your audio software – all major DAWs are supported.

High channel count and Focusrite quality – now on USB 2.0 and iOS

Scarlett 18i20 is the USB complement of the tried and tested Saffire PRO 40 Firewire interface. Suitable for Windows, Mac and even iOS (with the Camera Connection Kit*) platforms, Scarlett 18i20’s USB 2.0 connection suits almost any computer, helping you build a setup in which external storage and audio interfaces do not have to share the same computer bus (recommended for the best performance) – if you have Firewire drives, for example, a USB audio interface is the best choice.
