I wish I bought this 30 years ago.

I'm a computer moron. I've always played live and never wanted to go down the recording path. But this gadget makes it so easy. I have a iMac, and it connects without having to even think about it. Perhaps the same is true for PCs, but I don't know.
I'm very excited about being creative.

Very good but..
Safwat 27.09.2020
The product is amazing in all aspects, it is very powerful, no need to add on that, but it is not suitable for high impedance Headphone, I have two 250 ohms beyerdynamic 770 and 990, the headphones out sound coming from the Focusrite is very weak and not enough for high impedance Headphone, I have bought the Focusrite after reading in their website that with 8i6 model if the device was connected to power it will be suitable to operate 600 ohms headphones, and this information is not precise. They should have mentioned that you will be able to hear sound from your high impedance headphones, but the sound may not be enough for your liking. or you will get 10% of the required power to operate your high impedance headphones.

Anyway, for my 32 ohms AudioTechnics it is working fine, and it is working seamlessly with my KRK Rokite 8 Monitors, the main output is very powerful, 30% of it blows my studio apart.

For it's price range this is the best you can get. I bought an UAD Apollo 8 after this, and the sound of the converters isn't that huge of a gap to me. Not >€1000 difference. If you can't make good music with this it's because of lack of skill, not because of the audio interface. Very hands on to install and use. Software control / routing takes some time to understand but works perfect after that. Would recommend everyone :)

Amazing option for the money
bustindziber 10.11.2023
I was looking for a new audio interface and needed more inputs and two headphone outputs. After researching my options I chose this one.
Build quality is great, it`s aluminum, and it feels like it will live longer than my previous device.
It also comes with great software and a plugin bundle.
Overall I`m satisfied.

Perfect for on the go
Rex C. 14.10.2020
I am new to producing, i'm mainly in the field of photo and video prod so i'm not sure if my comments are something of use, anyways, i bought this since i'm trying to use this on live acoustic performances while i'm taking videos of their performance, i think from all the interfaces that i reviewed, Focusrite really presented their products well and i think it's easy to operate even when you're new to the field of producing and with all the software and support that comes with it, it's something you can rely on. what i like as well with the appearance is it's compact body, the read color and the portability, and oh don't forget the SPDIF!

Solid, Reliable, Excellent

Does exactly what it says on the tin. I have used this for huge multi-track projects and it handles them with ease. Integration is simple and intuitive. Good amount of ins, outs, for my home studio. I have no criticism to make of this product at all. I am sold on Focusrite products for life. Recommended.

This audio interface is IMHO the best option if you are the music producer. It have everything you'll need for hook up your gear. Works with all DAW's as plug and play, but have own drivers if you are picky. Absolutely recommended

Big Update
Grade 5 04.10.2021
I had a firewire Saffire Pro14 for years until the left channel stopped recently on it . Having considered all the option i wanted a newer card with more inputs. This fit the bill exactly and I trust the Focusrite Range.

Very easy to handle
xMrG 21.11.2021
I love the sound quality of this interface. It's intuitive to use and allows gain indicator customization (the three threshold levels allow adjusting the color being used). It's a perfect fit to my SM7B.

The rubin red is also a plus. :-P 1,5m for the USB cabel is slightly short, but that's just my use case for a fixed installation and no issue at all.
