Comparison Table Scarlett 4i4 4th Gen Scarlett 2i2 4th Gen Scarlett 2i2 Studio Vocaster Two Review: great - I genuinely think the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 Studio 4th Gen USB Audio Interface Bundle is one of the best purchases I’ve made for my setup. Everything about it feels professional while still being really easy to use, even if you’re newer to recording. The sound quality is honestly amazing. Vocals sound clean, clear, and detailed, and instruments come through really nicely as well. The microphone included in the bundle surprised me a lot because it actually sounds very good straight out of the box, especially for home recording, streaming, or music production. The headphones are comfortable too and give a really clear sound while monitoring. What I love most is how simple it is to set everything up. You basically plug it in and you’re ready to start recording. Features like Auto Gain and Clip Safe make things so much easier because you don’t constantly have to worry about your levels peaking or ruining recordings. The build quality is also excellent. The interface itself feels solid and premium with that classic Focusrite design, and it genuinely feels like something built to last for years. The controls are smooth, responsive, and everything just feels polished. I can definitely see why so many people recommend the Scarlett range. It gives you that proper studio feel without being ridiculously expensive, and it works great for vocals, instruments, streaming, podcasts, or general content creation. Overall, I absolutely love it and think it’s 100% worth it if you want high-quality audio without making things overly complicated. Review: Easy to use, amazing quality audio - Upgraded from a cheap behringer to this. Slightly reluctantly. And I am so not regretting my decision. I'll start with the pretty lights around each dial. Not completely necessary, maybe, but really cool. I mean, it shows the in/output levels, but so does a line on the knob itself. Setup-wise, this was really easy. had it going in no time, and worked perfectly with my daw. In fact, with the older behringer, when my daw was open, it hijacked the audio so that nothing else in windows could play sound! But this seems to work just fine. Generally, Its pretty easy to use, though I've not really done much more than play with half of the buttons on it. For my needs (guitar and vocal recording), this is more than enough. But the audio quality itself, which is the reason I got this rather than a cheaper alternative, well that's blown me away a bit. People said it was better quality, but I'm no pro, and didn't expect to notice much. But it really is amazing. Everything down to the quality of the audio through the headphone jack is incredible. I really love this thing, so it may be a bit more expensive than other things out there, but worth every penny. ## Features - The music maker's studio hub: Connect your mics, guitars, synths and drum machines and get audio performance that matches what you'd find in a pro studio. - Ready for all your gear: Two Scarlett 4th Gen mic preamps.

Any cables you require for connecting to speakers or microphones for example are not included in the box, just the USB cable. Best regards, Jay // Focusrite Technical Support Engineer **Q: How do you adjust the gain levels on the two rear (3 and 4) line in inputs?** A: Hi, It is not possible to adjust the gain to the line inputs on the rear of the device. You can only adjust the gain if using the front two line inputs (Inputs 1 and 2). The rear two (Inputs 3 and 4) have a fixed gain level applied to them. The level can be altered using Focusrite Control 2 if listening live, or in your DAW if recording, but the gain can not be changed. Best regards, Jay // Focusrite Technical Support Engineer **Q: Does the solo have volume control for headphones?** A: Hi, Scarlett Solo 4th Gen has an independent volume control to the Line Outputs (for Speakers) and to the headphones. Previous versions, 1st, 2nd and 3rd Generation Scarlett Solo devices did not have this feature but it has been added to 4th Gen. Best regards, Jay // Focusrite Technical Support Engineer **Q: What does gen 4 improve?** A: Unfortunately, the focusrite was not comparable with my windows 11 laptop, and I had to return it. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ great *by C***S on 14 May 2026* I genuinely think the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 Studio 4th Gen USB Audio Interface Bundle is one of the best purchases I’ve made for my setup.

Beyond this, the product was purchased on end of year sales and is great value for money. The software bundle with this product is amazing and includes industry heavyweights like Native Instruments Massive and Antares Autotune. The interface itself is really good for a bedroom producer, songwriter and professional starting out, it has 2 inputs for mics, guitars etc. As some others mentioned there is no off button so will need removing when not in use but this is not a problem for me. The headphones are well built, they have decent sound quality although not quite at the same standard as some of the pricier studio wired headphones available. They are certainly sufficient for most entry level or beginner musicians. I have not tried this microphone just yet but it feels weighty and solid and comes with a foam pop filter and a clamp for your mic holder (need to buy a proper mic stand separately) but they provide a cardboard holder if you are short on cash. Overall very satisfied, just make sure you remove McAfee before attempting to install drivers or you may have a mini heart attack when you get blue screens and put into recovery mode. Always do your research! You can of course reinstall McAfee after the drivers are installed. ## Frequently Bought Together - Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 4th Gen USB Audio Interface, for Musicians, Songwriters, Guitarists, Content Creators — High-Fidelity, Studio Quality Recording, and All the Software You Need to Record - Cable Matters 2-Pack Premium XLR to XLR Cables - 6ft, Male to Female Microphone Cable, Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) Mic Cord, Black - Shure SM7dB Dynamic Vocal Microphone w/Built-in Preamp for Streaming, Podcast, & Recording, Wide-Range Frequency, Warm & Smooth Sound, Rugged Construction, Detachable Windscreen - Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/553868606-scarlett-4i4-4th-gen-usb-c-audio-interface](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/553868606-scarlett-4i4-4th-gen-usb-c-audio-interface) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-08-02*
