User Guide
OVERVIEW
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Third Generation Scarlett 2i2 Studio, part of the
range of Focusrite professional audio interfaces incorporating high-quality
Focusrite analog pre-amplifiers. You now have a simple, compact, and complete
solution for recording with a microphone or directly from instruments, by
routing high-quality audio to and from your computer.
In developing the Third Generation series of Scarlett interfaces, we have made
further improvements to both performance and features. Audio specifications
have been upgraded throughout the unit to give you greater dynamic range and
even lower noise and distortion; additionally, the mic preamp now accepts
higher input levels.
An important enhancement is the inclusion of Focusrite’s AIR function.
Individually selectable on each channel, AIR subtly modifies the preamp’s
frequency response to model the sonic characteristics of our classic
transformer-based ISA microphone preamps. When recording with good quality
microphones, you will notice enhanced clarity and definition in the important
mid to high-frequency range, just where it is most needed for vocals and many
acoustic instruments.
We have also enhanced the Direct Monitor feature found on previous Scarletts:
now you can monitor as you record in either mono or stereo, with zero latency.
This User Guide provides a detailed explanation of the components to help you
achieve a thorough understanding of the product’s operational features. We
recommend both users new to computer-based recording, as well as more
experienced users, take the time to read through the User Guide so you are
fully aware of all the possibilities the Scarlett Studio components and
accompanying software have to offer. If the main User Guide sections do not
provide the information you need, be sure to consult
support.focusrite.com which contains a
comprehensive collection of answers to common technical support queries.
Features
The Scarlett 2i2 Studio comprises a Scarlett 2i2 audio interface, a Scarlett
Studio CM25 MkIll studio-quality condenser microphone, a pair of Scarlett
Studio HP60 MkIll reference-quality headphones, and all the necessary software
to get you started as quickly as possible.
The Scarlett 2i2 hardware interface is the key component in the Scarlett 2i2
Studio; this provides the means of connecting the CM25 MkIll (or other)
microphone, musical instruments, or line-level audio signals to a computer
running macOS or Windows. The signals applied at the 2i2’s physical inputs can
be routed to your recording software at up to 24-bit, 192 kHz resolution via a
USB connection. Similarly, the recording software’s monitor or recorded output
will appear at the 2i2’s physical outputs. (Note – audio recording software is
frequently referred to as a –Digital Audio Workstation”, or –DAW”, and the
term “DAW” is used throughout this user guide.)
Box Contents
Along with your Scarlett 2i2, you should have:

System requirements
The easiest way to check your computer’s operating system (OS) is compatible
with your Scarlett is to use our Help Centre’s compatibility articles:
supportfocusrite.com/hc/categories/200693655
As new OS versions become available over time, you can continue to check for
further compatibility information by searching our Help Centre at
supportiocusrite.com .
GETTING STARTED
With the Third Generation, Scarlett interfaces introduce a new, faster way of
getting up and running, using the Scarlett Quick Start tool. All you need to
do is connect your Scarlett 2i2 to your computer.
Once connected, you will see the device is recognized by your PC or Mac and
the Quick Start tool will guide you through the process from there.
IMPORTANT: The Scarlett 2i2 has a single USB 2.0 Type C port (on the rear
panel): connect it to your computer using the USB cable provided. Note that
Scarlett 2i2 is an SB 2.0 device, and thus the USB connection requires a USB
2.0+ compliant port on your computer.
The Scarlett 2i2 does not need a separate power supply; It gets its power from
your computer via the USB connection. However, we recommend when using a
laptop, the laptop is powered using its AC adaptor, as otherwise, the battery
will drain faster than when powering from the laptop alone.
Your computer will initially treat your Scarlett as a Mass Storage Device
(MSD), and during its first connection, the Scarlett will be in “Easy Start
mode”.
**Quick Start Tool
**
We have tried to make registering your Scarlett 2i2 as simple as possible. The
steps are designed to be self-explanatory, but we have described each step
below, so you can see how they should appear on either a PC or a Mac.
Mac users only:
On connecting your Scarlett 2i2 to your Mac, a Scarlett icon will appear on
the desktop:
Double-click on the icon to open the Finder window shown below:
Double-click on the “Click Here to Get Started.url” icon. This will redirect you to the Focusrite website, where we recommend you register your device:
Click on “Let’s get you started”, and you’ll see a form that will be partly
prefilled for you automatically.
When you submit the form, you’ll see options to go straight to the downloads
to get the software for your Scarlett or to follow a step-by-step setup guide
based on how you want to use your Scarlett.
Once you have installed the Focusrite Control software to set up and configure
your interface, the Scarlett will be switched out of Easy Start mode so it no
longer appears as a Mass Storage Device when connected to your computer.
Your OS should switch the computer’s default audio inputs and outputs to
Scarlett. To verify this, go to System Preferences > Sound
, and ensure the
input and output are set to Scarlett 2i2.
For detailed setup options on a Mac, open Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup.
Windows only:
On connecting your Scarlett 2i2 to your PC, a Scarlett icon will appear on the
desktop:
(Note that the drive letter may be something other than F: depending on other
devices connected to your PC).
Double-click on the pop-up message to open the dialogue box shown below:
Double-click on “Open folder to view files”: this will open an Explorer window:
Double-click “Click Here to Get Started”. This will redirect you to the Focusrite website, where we recommend you register your device:
Click on “Let’s get you started”, and you’ll see a form that will be partly
prefilled for you automatically.
When you submit the form, you’ll see options to go straight to the downloads
to get the software for your Scarlett or to follow a step-by-step setup guide
based on how you want to use your Scarlett.
Once you have installed the Focusrite Control software to set up and configure
your interface, the Scarlett will be switched out of Easy Start mode so it no
longer appears as a Mass Storage Device when connected to your computer.
Your OS should switch the computer’s default audio inputs and outputs to be
the Scarlett. To verify this, right-click on the Sound icon on the taskbar and
select Sound Settings
, and set the Scarlett as the Input and Output Device.
All users:
Note that a second file – –More Info & FAQs” – is also available during the
initial set-up process. This file contains some additional information about
the Focusrite Quick Start tool which you may find helpful if you have any
issues with the procedure.
Once registered, you will have immediate access to the following resources:
- Focusrite Control (Mac and Windows versions available) – see NOTE below
- Multi-language User Guides
You can find the license codes and links for the optional bundled software in
your Focusrite account.
To find out what bundled software is included with Scarlett 3rd generation,
please visit our website:
focusrite.com/scarlett
NOTE: Installing Focusrite Control will also install the correct driver
for your device. Focusrite Control is available to download at any time, even
without registering: see “Manual Registration” below.
Manual Registration
If you decide to register your Scarlet at a later date you can do so at:
customer.focusrite.com/reciister
You will need to enter the Serial Number manually: this number can be found on
the base of the interface itself, and also on the barcode label on the side of
the box.
We recommend you download and install our Focusrite Control application, as
this will disable Easy Start mode and unlock the full potential of the
interface. Initially, when in Easy Start mode, the interface will function at
sample rates up to 48 kHz. Once Focusrite Control is installed on your
computer, you can work at sample rates up to 192 kHz.
If you decide not to download and install Focusrite Control immediately, it
can be downloaded at any time from:
customer.focusrite.com/support/downloads
To force your Scarlett out of Easy Start mode without first registering it,
connect it to your computer and press and hold the 48V button for five
seconds. This will ensure your Scarlett has full functionality. Please bear in
mind that should you wish to register your Scarlett after taking this action,
you will need to do so manually, as explained above.
Audio Setup in your DAW
The Scarlett 2i2 is compatible with any Windows-based DAW that supports ASIO
or WDM and any Mac-based DAW that uses Core Audio. After following the Getting
Started procedure described above, you can start using the Scarlett 2i2 with
the DAW of your choice.
To allow you to get started if you do not already have a DAW application
installed on your computer, both Pro Tools | First and Ableton Live Lite are
included; these will be available to you once you’ve registered your Scarlett
2i2. If you need help installing either DAW, please visit our Getting Started
pages at focusrite.com/get-started, where
Getting Started videos are available.
Operating instructions for Pro Tools | First and Ableton Live Lite are beyond
the scope of this User Guide, but both applications include a full set of Help
files. Instructions are also available at avid.com and
ableton.com respectively.
Please note – your DAW may not automatically select the Scarlett 2i2 as its
default I/O device. You must manually select Focusrite USB ASIO
as the
driver on your DAW’s Audio Setup* page. Please refer to your DAW’s
documentation (or Help files) if you are unsure where to select the ASIO or
Core Audio, driver. The example below shows the correct configuration in the
Ableton Live Lite Preferences
panel (Windows version shown).
- Typical names. The terminology may differ between DAWs.
Once the Scarlett 2i2 is set as the preferred Audio Device* in your DAW, Inputs 1 & 2 and Outputs 1 & 2 will appear in your DAW’s Audio I/O preferences. Depending on your DAW, you may need to enable certain inputs or outputs before use.
The two screenshots below show Inputs 1 & 2 and Outputs 1 & 2 enabled Input and Output Config in Ableton Live Lite’s Audio Preferences.
- Typical names. The terminology may differ between DAWs.
Examples of Usage
The Scarlett 2i2 is an excellent choice for several different recording and
monitoring applications.
Some typical configurations are shown below.
Connecting a microphone or instrument
This setup shows the most typical configuration for recording with DAW
software on your Mac or PC.
You might record guitar through Input 1 and vocals through Input 2 into your
DAW while monitoring the playback from the DAW via headphones (or speakers).
The front panel input sockets are “Combo” type, which accepts either an XLR
male connector (you will probably have one on the end of your microphone
cable) or a ¼” (6.35 mm) jack plug. If you are using a condenser microphone,
you will need to turn on the 48 V phantom power. Phantom power should not be
used when other types of microphones – e.g., dynamic or ribbon – are in use.
Note the Scarlett 2i2 has no “Mic/line” switch – the Focusrite preamplifier
stage is automatically configured for a microphone when you plug an XLR into
the input, and for a line or instrument when you connect a jack plug. Press
the INST button (illuminates red) if you are connecting a musical
instrument (a guitar in the example) via an ordinary 2-pole (TS) guitar jack.
When INST mode is not selected, you can connect a line-level source such as a
keyboard, synthesizer, or the balanced output of an external audio mixer via a
3-pole (TRS) jack. Note the Combo connector accepts both TRS and TS types of
jack plugs.
Recording with a microphone
The Scarlett Studio CM25 MkIII microphone supplied with Scarlett Studio is a
studio-quality condenser mic that is ideal for recording vocals and most
acoustic instruments. Connect the CM25 MkIII to one of the Scarlett 2i2’s two
front-panel inputs with the cable supplied.
Condenser microphones (also sometimes referred to as “capacitor” microphones)
require a source of DC power to operate. This is almost always supplied by
“phantom” lowering from the mic preamp to which the mic is connected (early
and special-purpose condenser mics might have a separate power supply).
For the CM25 MkIII (or any other condenser mic) to work with the Scarlett 2i2,
press the 48V button on the front panel (see front panel diagram on page 17
item [3]).
We recommend you follow the following sequence:
- Turn the input gain [2] to minimum
- Connect the microphone
- Press the 48V button
- Increase the input gain to the required level
Other types of microphones (including the common dynamic type) do not require
phantom power and may suffer damage if phantom power is applied. Some cheaper
condenser microphones are able to operate from a lower phantom power voltage –
typically 15 V. You should check the mic spec to see if it is safe to operate
it from 48 V; if not, obtain a suitable external phantom power supply.
Microphone Dos and Don’ts
A guide to microphone technique is beyond the scope of this User Guide (though
many excellent books and online video tutorials on the subject are available),
but if you are new to recording with a studio-quality microphone, you need to
observe a few golden rules.
DO use a mic stand. The CM25 MkIII has an industry-standard 5/8” threaded
insert which allows it to be mounted on most mic stands. An 3/8” adaptor is
included to allow it to be fitted to mic stands that have this thread size.
Inexpensive short, long, and boom stands are available from music stores.
DO observe the microphone’s orientation. The CM25 MkIII has a cardioid
response pattern; this means it has a “front” and a “back”, and if you point
it the wrong way round, it will sound odd. The front of the CM25 MkIII can be
identified by the CM25 MkIII logo.
DON’T ignore the room acoustics. You probably won’t have the luxury of a
recording studio’s perfect acoustics. Be aware of how reverberant the room is.
Reverberation is neither good nor bad, but often inappropriate. Some
instruments will benefit from being recorded in a reverberant space, others
won’t. A “dead” acoustic is generally better than a “live” one because
reverberation can be added in the mixing process, but room reverberation on
the recording can’t be removed.
DON’T blow into a microphone to test it! Lightly rub or scratch the
grille instead.
DO experiment with microphone placement. Remember you will not only be
recording the vocal or instrument, but the effect of the microphone position
relative to the voice or instrument as well, and this will be affected by the
room acoustics. Moving the mic around, and trying recordings at different
distances and angles to the source will produce different sounding results,
some of which will be better than others.
DO use the CM25 MkIII to mic up a guitar amplifier if you want to include
the contribution to the sound the amplifier makes. But be aware high sound
levels can be produced close to the loudspeaker, and if you need high volume,
you may get a better result by moving the mic away from the amplifier. Also,
be aware you will get a subtly different sound if you point the mic at the
centre of the loudspeaker cone compared to the edge.
DON’T forget a microphone is unforgiving – it will not only pick up what
you are trying to record, but any other sound source in the room, like a
clock, the air-con, heating, or a chair creaking. You know how you take those
holiday photos of a great bit of scenery and it’s only when you look at the
pictures later you see the power cables right across the view? It’s the same
with recording. You might not notice extraneous sounds at the time, but the
mic will and you’ll hear them on the recording. To remove any unwanted low-
frequency rumble, it is advisable the High Pass Filter (HPF) on the mic’s DAW
channel is enabled.
Using Direct Monitoring
You will frequently hear the term “latency” used in connection with digital
audio systems. In the case
of the simple DAW recording application described above, latency will be the
time it takes for your
input signals to pass through your computer and audio software. Latency can be
a problem for a
performer who wishes to record while monitoring their input signals.
The Scarlett 2i2 is fitted with a “Direct Monitoring” option, which overcomes
this problem. Setting the
front panel DIRECT MONITOR control to either MONO or STEREO will route
your input signals directly to the Scarlett 2i2’s headphone and main monitor
outputs. This enables you to hear yourself with zero latency – i.e., in “real-
time” – along with the computer playback. The input signals to your computer
are not affected in any way by this setting.
In MONO mode, Inputs 1 and 2 are routed equally to the two outputs (both the
rear panel outputs and headphones) so they both appear in the center of the
stereo image. This is useful when you are recording two separate instruments
or an instrument and a vocal, where there is no need for the two signals to be
specifically located in the stereo image. Further examples would be an
acoustic and an electric guitar, a bass which is both mind and DI’d, or two
separate mics differently positioned on a guitar amplifier.
In STEREO mode, Input 1 is routed to the left output channel and Input 2 to
the right. Use this mode if you are recording something inherently stereo in
nature. Monitoring in stereo will give you a more accurate impression of the
sound stage. Examples are any situation where two microphones are being used
to deliberately capture a stereo image such as a pair of overhead drum mics, a
single stereo mic recording an orchestra or other ensemble, or the stereo
outputs of an electronic source such as a piano, synthesizer or FX unit.
When using Direct Monitoring, ensure your DAW software is not set to route its
input (what you are currently recording) to its output. If it is, you will
hear yourself “twice”, with one signal audibly delayed as an echo.
Monitoring with DIRECT MONITOR set to OFF can be useful when using an FX
plug-in to your DAW to create a stereo effect that contributes to the live
performance. In this way, you will be able to hear exactly what is being
recorded, complete with the FX. However, some latency may result, the amount
depending on the DAW’s buffer size and processing power of the computer.
Connecting Scarlett 2i2 to headphones
The Scarlett 2i2 Studio package includes a pair of high-quality HP60 MkIII
headphones. They are lightweight and durable and should prove comfortable to
wear for extended periods. The headband is adjustable.
The HP60 MkIII headphones have a low noise, oxygen-free copper cable, fitted
with a ¼” (6.35 mm) 3-pole (TRS) jack plug. This should be connected to the
socket at the right-hand side of the Scarlett 2i2 front panel (indicated by a
symbol). The Scarlett 2i2’s headphone output is, of course, suitable for use
with other models of headphones: if they terminate in a 3.5 mm TRS “mini-
jack”, use a TRS ¼”-to-3.5 mm jack adaptor The volume in the headphones can be
adjusted by the rotary control above the socket.
Please be aware headphones are capable of generating high sound pressure
levels at the ear; prolonged exposure to high sound levels may impair your
hearing. Never turn headphones volume up any further than necessary.
Connecting Scarlett 2i2 to loudspeakers
You can use the ¼” jack outputs on the rear panel to connect monitor speakers.
Active monitors have internal amplifiers with volume control and can be
connected directly. Passive loudspeakers require a separate amplifier; the
rear panel outputs should be connected to the amplifier’s inputs.
|
---|---
The line outputs are 3-pole (TRS) ¼” (6.35 mm) jack sockets and are
electronically balanced. Typical consumer (Hi-Fi) amplifiers and small powered
monitors will have unbalanced inputs, either on phono (RCA) sockets or via a
3.5 mm 3-pole jack plug intended for direct connection to a computer.
In either case, use a suitable connecting cable with jack plugs at one end.
Professional power amplifiers will generally have balanced inputs; we
recommend using balanced cables to connect these to the outputs of the
Scarlett 2i2.
NOTE: You run the risk of creating an audio feedback loop if loudspeakers
are active when you are monitoring a microphone! We recommend you always turn
off (or turn down) monitoring loudspeakers while recording, and use headphones
when overdubbing.
HARDWARE FEATURES
Front Panel
The Front Panel includes the input connectors for Mic, Line, and Instrument signals, as well as the input gain and monitoring controls.
- Inputs 1 & 2 – “Combo” input sockets – connect microphones, instruments (e.g., guitar), or line-level signals here. Combo sockets accept both XLR and 1/4–(6.35 mm) jacks. Microphones connect using XLR plugs: instruments and line-level signals should be connected via 1/4″ (6.35 mm) jack plugs of either TS or TRS The preamp gain is appropriate for microphones when an XLR plug is inserted, and for higher-level signals when a jack plug is inserted. Do not connect anything other than a microphone – e.g., the output of a sound module or FX unit – via an XLR plug, as the signal level will overload the preamp, resulting in distortion; , if phantom power is enabled, you may damage your equipment.
- GAIN 1 and GAIN 2 – adjusts the preamp gain for signals on inputs 1 and 2 The gain controls have tri-color LED ‘rings’ to confirm signal level: green indicates an input level of at least -24 dBFS (i.e., ‘signal present’), the ring turns amber at -6 dBFS to indicate the signal is close to clipping, and finally to red at 0 dBFS (digital clipping).
- 48V – phantom power switch for mic inputs – enables 48 V phantom power at the XLR contacts of both Combo connectors.
- INST – Line/Instrument level switches for each input which alter gain and input impedance to suit either instrument or line-level signals. ‘INST. illuminates red when Instrument mode is You can also enable INST from Focusrite Control.
- AIR – two switches enabling AIR mode for each input. AIR modifies the frequency response of the input stage to model the classic, transformer-based Focusrite ISA microphone preamps. ‘AIR’ illuminates yellow when the mode is selected. Note that AIR may also be selected from Focusrite Control.
- MONITOR – main monitor output level control – sets the output level at the main (rear panel) outputs LEFT and
- USB LED – a green LED illuminates when the Scarlett is connected and recognized by your computer.
- DIRECT MONITOR – this switch routes the inputs directly to the outputs with three different settings: OFF, MONO and STEREO. When set to OFF, monitoring of input sources is via the DAW; in MONO or STEREO, monitoring is taken directly from the preamp inputs so is free of any latency. The symbols or illuminate green to indicate selection of mono and stereo modes respectively. When Direct Monitor is on, the signal is combined with software playback.
- Headphone level – adjusts the output level at the front panel stereo headphone output.
- Headphone output – ¼” TRS output jack. If your headphones have a ¼” TRS jack plug, connect them directly; if they have a 3.5 mm TRS “mini-jack”, use a TRS ¼”-to-3.5 mm jack adaptor. Note that it is likely headphones fitted with 4-pole TRRS plugs will not operate correctly.
Back Panel
11. K (Kensington security lock) – secure your Scarlett 2i2 to a
suitable structure if desired.
