Anniversary design with legendary heritage
The Scarlett 2i2 Anniversary Edition combines Focusrite’s latest recording technology with a visual tribute to its studio roots. The limited-edition ISA-blue aluminium finish echoes the iconic Focusrite Studio Console, while the original ff logo is embossed on the top panel. Flip it over and you’ll find a unique silkscreened design inspired by classic analogue schematics. It's a collector’s piece with real purpose, ready to handle your daily recording needs with confidence.
Professional recording tools made simple
The Scarlett 2i2 Anniversary Edition features two remote-controlled 4th-generation mic preamps, offering a massive 69dB of gain and the cleanest signal path ever in a Scarlett. You can plug in microphones for vocals, instruments or podcasting, and get great results straight away. Guitarists will appreciate the hi-Z instrument inputs that feel like plugging into a real amp. You can also connect synths, drum machines or keyboards using the high-quality line inputs.
Scarlett’s converters offer the same 192kHz, 24-bit resolution found in Focusrite’s RedNet interfaces, used in professional studios worldwide. Every detail in your sound is preserved, giving you the confidence to record and mix with clarity.
Stay in control with intelligent features
Setting levels is quick and easy using the Dynamic Gain Halos, which show your input and output activity clearly on the hardware. If you want Scarlett to do the work for you, hit Auto Gain, play for ten seconds, and the perfect level is set. Clip Safe constantly checks your signal in real-time and automatically adjusts gain to protect your takes from distortion. These features work together to keep your recording session flowing without interruptions.
The onboard headphone amp has been improved to offer louder, cleaner playback through high-impedance headphones. Independent volume controls for your headphones and monitor outputs give you full flexibility during tracking and mixing sessions.
Software, sampling and mobile control
Scarlett 2i2 Anniversary Edition comes bundled with a full suite of creative software. In addition to the standard Scarlett collection, you also get exclusive anniversary plugins from Sonnox, Acustica and Softube. Software includes Pro Tools Intro+ for Focusrite, Ableton Live Lite, six months of FL Studio Producer Edition, and access to royalty-free samples and instruments.
Using Loopback, you can route audio from your computer back into your DAW to capture samples, mix stems or stream content. The Focusrite Control 2 software makes it easy to manage your signal routing and mix settings, with apps available for both desktop and mobile. This allows you to adjust mic pre levels or monitor mixes remotely, making your setup more flexible.
