I have been using a Focusrite 2i4 for several years and really like it. Upgrading to this 3rd generation model is just as reliable and easy to use. I like the much smaller form factor of the 3rd generation model 2i2 and am glad I made the purchase. FYI, for anyone who buys a Focusrite and experiences any crackling sounds while using it...just be sure to set the GHZ level to be the same if you record music using a DAW. I made sure my level was at 48,000 inside the audio settings in the DAW as well as in the control panel software that comes with the Focusrite software. It works like a dream and I'd recommend it to others who are looking for a decent I/O device!! Thank you Focusrite for the easy installation experience and for how well it works on both Mac and PC!!

The Focusrite Scarlet 2i2 (2nd Gen) USB Audio Interface did the job well. I'm enjoying using its many capabilities.

I'm a public school music teacher and with my newer Macbook Pro, I was no longer able to record into Garage Band (or any other recording software, as there is no longer a dedicated "line-in" jack on the computer. In order to record my students in school, I needed a digital audio interface. I read reviews on several different brands and features. This unit from Focusrite has all that I needed. Now that the new 3rd generation is available, the prices on this 2nd generation unit have come down a bit. For the money, it is AWESOME! I can't hear ANY noise from the preamp in the recordings. It is completely "plug and play" on my Macbook Pro. Picking this up for a great price in the "like new" condition that it's in was a bonus. I'm very happy with this purchase.

Stereo recordings work great! After installing the updated drivers and a reboot. I tested it with the NCH WavePad Sound Editor app to verify that it could actually record in stereo and it passed with flying colors. I could see that the right and left sound recording level bars work independently from each other. The 2i2 was connected to a headphone jack by using a 1/8 inch TRS Stereo to Dual 1/4 inch TS Mono Y-Splitter Cable. Found the stereo setting in Windows 10 under the "device properties / additional device settings / advanced tab. Changed the sample rate drop down menu to "2 channel, 16 bit, 48000 Hz (DVD quality)" So cool!

It works perfectly! Absolutely thrilled about this item. I regret to say I felt a little uneasy about the term "refurbished". This has definitely exceeded expectations. From cosmetics to functionality, the quality is great. The software bundle worked flawlessly, as well. The 2i2 is a now staple of my humble home/travel studio. It has all the essentials one would need with a simple setup. I have a guitar and small microphone running through the two inputs, which are routed into Ableton. All knobs and buttons feel sturdy. No problems with any inputs either.
