Scarlett Focusrite 8i6 1st Gen USB Audio Interface

  

The Scarlett 8i6 hardware interface provides the means for connecting microphones, line-level signals, instrument-level signals, and digital signals to your computer, which are then routed to your audio recording software / digital audio workstation (referred tothroughout this user guide as "DAW"). All audio signals connected to the inputs, plus audio output from your computer programs are routed to the physical outputs for youto connect to an amp and speakers, powered monitors, headphones, analogue/digital mixer, and any other studio equipment that youwish to use. There are also connectors for sending and receiving MIDI. The accompanying software application, Scarlett MixControl provides further recording, routing and monitoring options, as well as theability to control global hardware settings such as sample rate and synchronisation.

Scarlett MixControl software provides mixing and routing to and from the DAW, allowing control over which signals are sent from thesequencer to each output. All inputs on the Scarlett 8i6 are routed directly to your DAW software for recording, but Scarlett MixControlalso allows you to route these signals to your monitors so that you can listen to the audio signals with zero latency - before they arriveat your DAW.
