Scarlett 2i2 Studio is everything you need to record your music to release-ready standards. Hook up the CM25 MkIII condenser microphone to our most detailed ultra-low-noise mic preamps. Plug guitars straight in to 2i2's Hi-Z inputs. Connect keys and synths to the super-high-quality line ins. Then listen in detail with the SH-450 headphones.

Auto Gain and Clip Safe make sure you'll never need to worry about your levels. Air mode, with Presence and Harmonic Drive, gives you that big console sound wherever you record. And the Hitmaker Expansion software bundle includes all the tools you need to record, produce and release your tracks.

Two of our most detailed, ultra-low-noise preamps.
\n Plug into 2i2’s 4th-Generation remote-controlled preamps – Scarlett’s clearest and most detailed ever, with a huge 69dB gain range to get huge, dynamic sound, whatever you’re recording.

CM25 MkIII studio condenser mic
\n You can use the CM25 MkIII for almost anything, but you’ll love how it sounds on vocals and guitars thanks to its bright and detailed character.

SH-450 closed-back headphones
\n With the SH-450 we’ve created our best-sounding studio headphones, with plush pads and a soft-touch headband design to keep you focused, not fatigued.

Let 2i2 handle your levels.
\n Auto Gain sets your levels and Clip Safe keeps them in the sweet spot, automatically tweaking the gain if you’re in danger of clipping. You'll never lose a take again.
