Solid State Logic - 12 Pro USB-C Audio Interface with 12-In/8-Out I/O, Mic Preamps, Instrument Inputs, MIDI, ADAT Optical, Balanced Outputs

The SSL 2 MKII is a USB-C audio interface designed for stereo recording, playback, and signal routing in computer-based digital audio workstation environments. It provides microphone preamps with phantom power support, a dedicated instrument input for direct connection of guitars or basses, balanced line outputs for monitor connectivity, and headphone monitoring for listening during tracking and mixing workflows. MIDI input and output enable integration with keyboards and external hardware instruments, while USB connectivity supports operation with compatible Mac, Windows, or iOS systems using recording and production software. The desktop-oriented design with a metal enclosure is intended for use in studio, home recording, podcasting, streaming, and content creation setups.

ISA C8X combines the trademark ISA sound with comprehensive remote control and all the analogue and digital I/O, routing, and recallability you need to run your entire studio, plus switchable impedance, balanced inserts, and high-pass filtering. The first two channels feature ISA preamps with classic Lundahl LL1538 transformers and Console and 430 Air modes for new tonal options. All eight are fully controllable from the front panel and via Focusrite Control 2.The ISA sound, evolvedThe ISA story starts in 1985 with a request from Sir George Martin to Rupert Neve: build a no-compromise mic preamp. That circuit became the foundation of every ISA product made since. 40 years on, it lives in ISA C8X - Focusrite's first ISA audio interface, housed in anodized aluminum in Focusrite's original blue color, with heritage transformer sound in a 26-in, 28-out USB-C interface built for the modern studio.Transformer-based DI inputs - Guitar, bass, and moreTwo front-panel instrument inputs routed through the Lundahl transformers for true console feel. Selectable impedance preserves the natural tone of guitar, bass, and other instruments. Console and 430 Air add warmth and depth.Two ISA transformer preamps - Lundahl LL1538, 79dB of gainLundahl LL1538 transformers deliver warm, rich character to any signal. Up to 79dB of gain, switchable impedance, balanced inserts, and high-pass filtering - all remotely controllable from the front panel and via Focusrite Control 2.All-analogue tone - Console and 430 Air modesISA C8X features two analogue, relay-switchable tone circuits - Console mode adds warm saturation and low-end punch, while the 430 Air Mode adds high-end shimmer - lifted directly from the ISA 430 MkII. Both are controllable from the front panel or via Focusrite Control 2.Multichannel Auto Gain - Eight preamps, set in secondsEnable Auto Gain and ISA C8X sets optimal levels across all eight preamps simultaneously - ideal for any session where time matters. Activate Auto Gain from the front panel or via Focusrite Control 2.Six ultra-low-noise preamps - 69dB of gain, per channelSix Focusrite mic preamps for capturing every nuance. 69dB of detailed gain per channel, analogue Air mode for added presence, and variable Drive for harmonic saturation - all remotely controllable from the front panel or via Focusrite Control 2.Two headphone outputs - Independent, high-headroomTwo class AB headphone outputs with independent level control, extra headroom, and 3 Ohm output impedance deliver up to 130mW of detailed playback with up to 116dB of dynamic range to keep performers comfortable and focused in any session.Digital expansion - ADAT, S/PDIF, and Word ClockExpand ISA C8X with 16 additional channels of I/O over ADAT. S/PDIF, MIDI and Word Clock connectivity make ISA C8X the MIDI and clock hub of any professional setup.12 balanced line outputs - Mono to 7.1.412 balanced line outputs with three monitor groups. Work in mono, stereo, or up to 7.1.4, switching between setups from the front panel or via Focusrite Control 2. Outputs one and two available on both XLR and TRS.Eight fixed-gain line inputs - Built for permanent installsDesigned for patchbay setups and permanent installations, the eight fixed-gain balanced line inputs let you connect outboard gear once and leave it. No re-patching between sessions. +24dBu maximum input level and 120dB of dynamic range.Monitor outputs - XLR and TRS connectivityOutputs one and two on the rear panel are available on both XLR and TRS, giving you the flexibility to connect to whatever monitoring setup is in your studio. A professional +24dBu maximum output level ensures consistent line-up levels throughout.Balanced insert points - Connect your outboard gearTwo balanced insert points sit in the signal path of the two ISA preamps - the ideal place to route through outboard compressors, EQs, and other processors before your signal hits the DAW.One interface for any sessionExpand your setupAdd up to 16 channels with ADAT optical ports as your needs grow. ISA C8X also operates in standalone mode to pass audio signals even when not connected to a computer.Permanent installationsEight dedicated line and mic inputs make ISA C8X ideal for patchbay setups. Balanced insert sends and returns on both ISA preamps let you connect outboard gear once and never have to re-patch between sessions.Create immersive mixesTwelve balanced outputs and three monitor groups allow you to mix in stereo or all the way up to 7.1.

Power your project with the Quantum HD 2 – the recording interface for project studios and full band recordings. THE CULMINATION OF 30 YEARS OF INNOVATION: The Quantum HD 2 features two newly redesigned high-definition MAX-HD mic preamps with +75 dB of gain – making it ideally suited for today’s most popular microphones. Guitarists and bassists will love the two instrument inputs, which were co-developed with Fender engineers. An Auto Gain button sets the perfect gain level for your microphones and instruments. You also get two re-amp outputs so you can send audio from your DAW to your guitar or bass amp and re-record it to experiment with different amps, pedals, and mic placements. An illuminated push encoder provides flexible control over gain level and output volume, making it great for self-produced recording. HIGH PERFORMANCE SIGNAL FLOW: Our custom low-latency driver provides exceptionally low audio latencies when recording, and high-performance converters with 124 dB dynamic range let you hear and capture audio with stunning clarity and fidelity. ALL-NEW MAX-HD MIC PREAMPS: The Quantum HD 2 features two newly designed mic preamps with +75 dB of gain. Our high-definition MAX-HD preamps are transparent, low-noise, and digitally-controlled analog, making them ideally suited to today’s most popular microphones. CO-DEVELOPED WITH FENDER: Built by the best ears in the business, guitarists and bassists will love the two instrument inputs, co-developed with Fender engineers – industry experts who designed them specifically for guitar and bass.
