Good

I come from the scarlet solo so for me was very complicated to understand the dedicated control software where you can control everything from the pc. I still have to understand that

Good for the price

I use this with the Scarlet OctoPre.

It does a pretty good job covering the things I need to connect, but I could do with more channels (40 at least combined with the OctoPre).

I have a mixer connected to enable other equipment to access the computer via the soundcards.

Focusrite support - their support is amazing and is 24/7. I’ve had the OctoPre replaced under warranty in 3 days without any arguments or hassle, making me think twice of considering another manufacturer if I decide to upgrade.

Sound

The Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 3rd Gen is my go-to audio interface. Solid build, intuitive controls, and versatile connectivity make it a studio essential. The Air mode adds a pro touch, and USB-C ensures minimal latency. It lacks MIDI ports, but the bundled software compensates well. Worth every penny for its performance.

Great bang for the buck

This is a wonderful interface. It sounds great and is very easy to use!

If you are looking for something that offers high quality sound and versatile functionality for a reasonable price, this thing is well worth considering a purchase.

Should have bought this earlier!

It was perfect addition to my audio setup. The product was as advertised everywhere, no need to review it myself everyone knows it.

Probably you can buy something a little better like Clarett+ if the features work for you and some extra money are not an issue.

Delivery was very fast even though I live on the other end of Europe.
