Completely changed the quality of my recordings!
Mitch
I purchased this for my son who is doing songwriting and music production at uni he is really pleased with the quality and performance of this equipment
James Giddens
Very little noise floor
Shawn Bristle
The Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen is easy to use, designed effectively, performs superbly . . . and its design is streamlined and pleasing. It has the right functions needed by musicians without going over the top. I've used several USB audio interfaces. When my first Scarlett was dashed to the concrete with great force, damaging the unit, I ordered a new one without blinking. If you want high quality and easy operation, I highly recommend the Scarlett 2i2.

This is a very good product and also a very good customer service, thanks

Was super happy with my Scarlett Solo. When my son decided to do some home recording, I sent him my Solo and ordered a refurbished 2i2 3rd Gen from the Focusrite site. The product seemed brand new. Great company, great products.
Cole Hammer
This product works perfectly for home-studios! It's very simple to operate, and beginner friendly. :)
Sam Le
Been trying to return this product & they keep trying to giving me technical support. I've never used it. Finally rectified my issue.
SS
This is my second purchase of a Scarlett. Compared to other products I have used, very stable and integrates well both with Mac & Windows. Gain lights are so useful.
Brian Burnes
After I purchased the Solo 2i2, Ias dissapointed to learn the software does not work with WIN 7. Had to buy a new laptop running window 10 to operate. My $150.00 budget find exploded into $850.00.
Ian
It may not be the best on the market, but I don't think it can be beat for value. I think anything purchased beyond this in quality you are paying for at highly diminishing returns. This thing is VERY easy to set up, and it just works. Super sound quality you might pay much more for elsewhere.

Arturo Becerril Valdes

Trung Pham
I received this unit as a refurb and when comparing side by side with a colleague's who bought his brand new they were 1:1. Amazing product and I am very happy
Martin Aleksiev
I've only used it for my electric guitar, but I've been happy with it thus far. All the software that comes along is great for me as a beginner hobbyist.
RICHARD JESCHKE DELIZ
Sounds great and easy to use!
Roman Golubev

Michael
Works exactly how I was hoping with almost real-time latency for live signal processing and has great sound quality.
Mati Stiller
Solid product, solid company
Nicholas Amoranto
Great product. Fairly simple to use. Nice set of tutorial videos also.
Steve W
The 2i2 came highly recommended by just about every musician I know who has a home studio! I needed to upgrade from my itrack solo, so I bought my factory-refurbished, 3rd gen 2i2 at a discount after realizing the warranty was the same as new. A few days later it arrived, and honestly, it looked brand new! Not a scratch on it! Works perfectly And sounds fantastic! Great product, great value!
MARC ROLLI
Having a little trouble, for the moment, to output my son's electric guitar while we're playing. But the recording directly into abbleton, for example, is excellent !
SAMUEL BORREGO VARGAS
Could have better electronic components. When you plugin or disconnect the device to USB port, and you have your speakers on, a loud "Click" sounds. (This not happens with Yamaha Devices such as a Mixer with USB that i have.
Santiago Hidalgo Arteaga
Quede encantando con el producto. Saludos desde Ecuador.
Bill Miller
I could not believe the great service I received in having to thoroughly test my 2nd Gen 2i2. Then how well Focusrite handled the return and exchange for the 3rd Gen 2i2. Very professional. I am very happy with the entire process and thank you all very much.
Ian Phillips
Bought a refurb unit: excellent price for a well-made and easy to use unit.
sal302
Amazing piece of equipment for the price. I use it to record an old synth, and it does its job beautifully.
Greg Gastwirth
Can't wait to fully start recording my guitar and bass playing. I am also and a heavy Zoom user and I have been told by listeners that my voice has popping and clicking so I need to get some kind of fix.
Luis Gonzalez
Really satisfied with the overall quality, options, refurbished option, look and feel. There’s just no doubt why Scarlett is one of the musicians’ favorite in terms of price and quality!
Lisa Gibson
It's a nice little interface, and the only reason I rated it 4 instead of 5 stars is that there's not quite enough gain for my mic, an AT2035. I have to have it at 90-95% for narration, so I returned it to get one that has a bit more gain.
samir handa;
works great
Fernando F.
Es muy entretenido, el software que lo acompaña es espetacular.
Anderson Rocha
Device itself is very intuitive to use. Plugin instalation is a cumbersome process. I was able to download software, get my ilok registration, and install Marshall Silver Jubilee 2555 plugin. I still can't use it. For some reason I can't find it on Focusrite control or Softube.
Charles
This unit was a refurb at about 70% cost of new and is indistinguishable from brand new. A great service is to offer refurbished units to a customer base - Focusrite is square on the money here. Great device from a customer-focused company. Kudos to Focusrite.
Brandon
Refurbished, but looks like new!
Iridescent_Cicada
I ordered the refurbished model, it's in great condition and new enough for me; it works perfectly. I'm excited to finally have this audio interface (been roughin' it without any external audio interface for a while, the last one exploded).
Joseph Jones
Great, the perfect interface to start with
Ricky Staniforth
Fixed my problems with professionalism and courtesy
Ant Barron
The 5 stars say it all!
Stevie Walker
Robustly built, well designed. No fuss, just works.
Jenya Canada
I ordered a refurbished product and absolutely happy with my little Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen. Looks and works like a brand new product.
toni andriotis
Actually quite impressed. Solidly built and works with very, very, little noise, if any, that’s usually due to the setup and not the unit itself. Will consider the midi version later on, when I’ll need it.
Cameron Walker
Amazing audio interface. Huge upgrade from the 2i2 2nd gen. My only complaints are: 1. The headphone volume knob and the monitor volume knob are a bit closer together, making it harder to turn them due to fingers catching the other knob. 2. The addition of the direct stereo monitoring option is cool, but if you only have one input, it adds a second button press to swap between direct monitoring and not-monitoring. Other than those small nitpicks, it’s truly an amazing device :)
Samuel Vandegrift
Intuitive, easy, and dreamy sound. I’ll stand amazed if they can improve this product. Plus the sleek aluminum housing looks great on my desk.
Vasily Khoruzhick
Pretty good audio interface. It's class-compliant so it works fine with Linux.
Gavin Killen
I can't rate the product as it never got to me. I'm rating the service.
Antonio Howell
By far, meet my expectations. Beautiful powerful interface for your buck.
Chloé Lescs
Very satisfied !!!
fernando
Amazing for everyone starting out. Recording is awesome, the software included is a really awesome perk.
Julius
I love the design and colour pallet for it. The product works perfectly. No complaints
Denis
I have high hopes and will adjust this review once I finally receive the product.
SHERWIN FUNCION
One of the most well-known audio interface here in the Philippines. We will be using it in our church live streaming. I really love this product and it was recommended by our main church. That is why we are not hesitant to purchase this. Quality product and value for money. I had to order it directly from Focusrite website to assure that it’s authentic and legit.
BERENICE GUTIERREZ
grabación y mezcla hasta 24 bits/192 kHz .. Recomendable totalmente !!!
cristobal trabucco
perfect for bigginers
Nestor Jr.
I was expecting the product to have damaged box or have scratches on it considering that it is a B stock BUT when i opened the box, I swas surprised to see that the item looks as good as brand new, no scratches here and there and it does what it is built for.
Travis G
Perfect for a beginner studio or small space
Jesús Daniel Herrera Hernandez
The beaste
Paul Liboon
I got a refurbished one that looks brand new and works like one. So glad I took the risk.
Jorge López
DE LA MEJOR CALIDAD QUE HAY EN EL MERCADO.
Prasun
Excellent bang for the buck with this refurbished model. I owned a 1st gen for many years which I dropped recently damaging the headphone jack. I use it still on a spare computer but am glad to have upgraded to the 3rd gen. Although it is lighter and the buttons feels less "substantial"/tactle compared to the 1st gen (which as toggle switches etc.) - the 3rd gen unit seems more responsive and sensitive in sound, and I appreciate the new control software that comes with it.
Steve Johnson
A great product. Highly recommended.
Kingsly Atem
Not applicable since I haven't received it yet
Gunnar Olafsson

Everything is perfect about this, only needs to be a bit heavier it feels cheap when you hold it. and the price needs to be a bit lower imo.
