Scarlett Solo joins the top selling range of USB audio interfaces in the world and offers both a legendary Focusrite preamp for your microphone and a crystal clear DI / line input for your instruments such as guitar, bass guitar and analogue synths. Precision digital converters capture your performance with studio-quality 24-bit resolution at sample rates of up to 96kHz. Simply plug into your Mac or PC via USB (USB cable supplied) and start recording. Get your volume right every time by keeping an eye on the halos around the gain knobs. Focusrite's unique gain halos stay green when your level is right and turn red if you're too loud. Simply flick the direct monitor switch to hear exactly what you're recording without latency. Connect your headphones and speakers and immerse yourself in Focusrite-quality sound, using the large volume dial to set the perfect level. Scarlett Solo has an exceptional dynamic range of over 105dB. The better your preamp, the better your microphone will sound. Focusrite preamps like the one in Scarlett Solo are considered by many to be the best in the world. They also provide +48V phantom power, so you can use any microphone you like. Sleek, light and tough enough to throw into your backpack, the stunning aluminium chassis can endure life on the road. Transform your Mac or PC into a portable recording studio and plug into four decades of analog audio equipment design. Inside the box you'll find all the software and sounds you need to record and mix music. This includes Ableton Live Lite, 1GB of Loopmasters sample content, the Novation Bass Station virtual synth and the Focusrite Scarlett Plug-in Suite (Compressor, Gate, EQ and Reverb). ## Features - Focusrite Mic Preamp: the better your preamp, the better your microphone will sound - Precision digital converters capture performance with studio-quality 24-bit resolution at sample rates of up to 96kHz with an exceptional dynamic range of over 105dB - Guitars plug straight into a crystal clear DI that minimizes the risk of distortion - Powered via USB, no need need for a bulky power supply - Includes an authorization code for Ableton Live Lite, Scarlett Plug-in Suite (RTAS/AU/VST), Red 2 & Red 3 Plug-in Suite (AAX/AU/VST), the Softube Time and Tone Bundle, Novation Bass Station, and 1GB of Loopmasters samples ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00MTXU2DG | | Audio Input | XLR, Instrument | | Best Sellers Rank | #119,679 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #817 in Computer Recording Audio Interfaces | | Brand Name | Focusrite | | Compatible Devices | Guitar, Headphone, Microphone, Personal Computer, Speaker | | Connectivity Technology | USB | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 4.4 out of 5 stars (680) | | Frequency Response | 96 KHz | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00815301008316 | | Item Weight | 1.4 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Focusrite/Novation | | Manufacturer Part Number | Scarlett-Solo | | Maximum Sample Rate | 96 KHz | | Model Number | Scarlett Solo | | Number of Channels | 4 | | Operating System | Multiple | | Supported Software | Ableton Live Lite, Pro Tools First - Focusrite Creative Pack | | UPC | 815301008316 | | Unit Count | 1.00 Count | | Warranty Description | 2 years. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Focusrite - **Compatible Devices:** Guitar, Headphone, Microphone, Personal Computer, Speaker - **Connectivity Technology:** USB - **Number of Channels:** 4 - **Supported Software:** Ableton Live Lite, Pro Tools First - Focusrite Creative Pack ## Images ![Scarlett Solo Compact (1st Gen) USB Audio Interface - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61m-TugzqjL.jpg) ![Scarlett Solo Compact (1st Gen) USB Audio Interface - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61l2HORZLbL.jpg) ![Scarlett Solo Compact (1st Gen) USB Audio Interface - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/6117Gys8KvL.jpg) ![Scarlett Solo Compact (1st Gen) USB Audio Interface - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61PLO4AXbaL.jpg) ![Scarlett Solo Compact (1st Gen) USB Audio Interface - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81NNl1+-SxL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Frequently Bought Together - Focusrite Scarlett Solo Compact (1st Gen) USB Audio Interface - VANDESAIL XLR Cables, 3ft 2 Pack Microphone Cable, XLR Male to Female Balanced Microphone Cord 3 pin, 3 Foot Short mic Cord Oxygen-Free Copper (OFC) Nylon Braided - InnoGear Adjustable Desk Microphone Stand, Weighted Base with Soft Grip Twist Clutch, Boom Arm, 3/8/'' and 5/8/'' Threaded Mounts for Blue Yeti and Blue Snowball, Kick Drums, Guitar Amps, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ie/products/5004963-scarlett-solo-compact-1st-gen-usb-audio-interface](https://www.desertcart.ie/products/5004963-scarlett-solo-compact-1st-gen-usb-audio-interface) --- *Product available on Desertcart Ireland* *Store origin: IE* *Last updated: 2026-06-28*
