Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 (3rd Gen) USB Audio Interface with Pro Tools, First

The audio interface is really a great investment for someone who is just starting out. The 2i2 gives only two inputs and 2 outputs but this 4i4 gives 4 inputs (2 mic/line level + 2 only line level inputs) and 4 outputs which is useful in the long run. This also has Loopback feature which is especially useful for podcasts, streamers.Sound quality is amazing. Noise reduction is pretty good. Use good quality cables and mic.For mic, Shure SM-58 seems to be a great choice. Studio monitors and headphones are recommended (but not mandatory) to get the most out of your Music Production quality. You can add these gradually in your music arsenal.This 4i4 also has MIDI so if you already have a keyboard which has MIDI outputs, you can connect it to the interface using MIDI cable. (MIDI OUT from keyboard to MIDI IN of Scarlett).Works fine and MIDI data is captured (used Ableton, but should work in any DAW).The Focusrite Control software works fine. It allows you to toggle functions like Air, Pad and toggle Line/Inst inputs and also route outputs, control volume, or mute.I think it's good that these functions are operated by software and not by physical buttons, which makes the audio interface less crowded and clean (as opposed to having knobs everywhere). This also makes the size of the interface smaller and portable.The only problem is the default cable that comes with any Focusrite Scarlett model. It is of extremely low quality and loose. Keeps disconnecting.I went ahead and bought Amazon Basics braided cable (red) as you can see in the photo. (Or buy a good cable which is short, as long cable increases attenuation.)This is a nice cable from Amazon and solves disconnection issues. It also looks awesome with that matching red color!Focusrite should collaborate with Amazon and include this cable as default!!If you are looking for a good audio interface around 20k with long time performance, go with 4i4.Other one you can go for is Solid State Logic SSL2+ (4 i/p and 4o/p) but this one is costly and big size, not too portable.

May be the one of the best. Build quality, sound quality all is good. But for home studio you will need high range computer to operate the software coz it comes with protocols and abletone. Its some how very tricky to download the software which come with the item. If you are serious about quality than go for it.

Focusrite is a studio quality professional audio interface. There is no compromise if you get 2i2 except the extra buttons. Sound quality will get professional quality if you have a good microphone along with this. Dont think, go for it.

I got the product which was not working, then I replaced it and the new one is working well! This is a good product for your home studio.

Biggest reason to go with this instead of the 2i2 was the pad feature since the 2i2 does not have it and if you are a metal guitarist with really hot pickups like bareknuckles then you will really need the pad feature so that you don't clip . Now coming to the review the 4i4 has much more than the 2i2 and it's a complete package for guitarists .It has a compact size with all the features of scarlett's big sized interfaces like the focusrite control software. This things looks beautiful and works smooth . Hoping to work on this for eternity ❤️❤️

Works Great. Build Quality & Sound Quality Is Awesome. We Will Get 4 Input & 4 Output In a Reasonable Price.

Excellent sound quality and easy interface along with best quality free software packages. Instead of Ableton Live10 free software Cubase will be better choice.
