Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 (3rd Gen) USB Audio Interface Review / Explained

great video... thank you

Thank you

Can you plug your guitar into a pod hd500x and then plug the pedal board into the Scarlett and run that through your pc speakers?

I got this back in 2021. This still runs really good for me tbh . Will this audio interface go out of date soon or is there no expiration on interfaces as long as they’re compatible with your System? Thanks for the video, I liked and subscribed .

dad got this interface for me last week, it was my dream to get it. I also wanted to ask, is it okay if it hisses near 100%?

scarlet 4th gen please

Are you able to connect a guitar cable to this?

Fantastic review! Thank you so much. I have a question. If all I need is to connect some speakers like Yamaha HS5 to my Macbook for dreaming music (Spotify Apple music etc) is this maybe too much? Should I look for a more simple model or brand? The speakers are amplified in this case, so I was avoiding this amp or amp/dac.

Is a full XLR cable better for a scarlett 2i2 3gen, or a XLR to TRS? and what is the difference between these two in relation to the scarlett 2i2? thanks.

Cool Music Man!! good review..

Wow the performance ❤

Hi @podcastage, been a huge fan for a long time. Just got my focusrite solo today for my Samson Q2U. Just want to ask how this whole thing works.
Do I set my microphone to 100% on my Windows 10 and just enhance the volume up with Focusrite gain or should I find a balance with the two?

how can I connect my guitar to my MacBook using this interface? I don't see the plug

had the 2gen 2i2 then bought 3rd gen 2i2 and they both fantastic pieces of kit for the price and sound much better then some of the more expensive stuff, great review

Thank you, so useful and well put review!

If I make a 2 person podcast, could we each wear 2 headphones for monitoring? I only see 1 jack…

Lack of a powerswitch seems cheap and unpractical.

2i2? I'm confused, is there a 212? When I look at how it's written on webpages it looks like one number in all caps, but perhaps its an I?

Okayy 🌊🌊🌊🌊🏄🏽‍♂️

Shopping for an interface. This was incredibly helpful. Thank you

how can you use channel one with phantom power? it doesnt work for me

The headphone input stopped working after three months, a bit irritating😠

Mine doesn’t sync to anything anymore I really don’t know how to fix this problem

I don't use interface. I just plug to live in. What am I missing not using interface?

Does this device route audio from one's PC back into itself for hearing the audio out from the PC?

You sense any latency? or does it feel like a real amp (I mean just the feel when you play through the interface.. feels like a real amp or you can sense latency?)

Your videos are so inspiring

Excellent demonstration

I just got mine today 😊

Hope next gen should have Bluetooth connectivity.

What's your opinion in buying a very lightly used like new Focusrite 2i2 on Facebook? What should I check to make sure everything is working well. Is it worth to buy this if there is a $60-80 reduction on price or to go buy a new one spending that extra money without taking any risk. Can you please explain the possible downside on such a purchase. So I can decide if should spend that extra dollars and buy a brand new one. Thanks. Awaiting your response.

my laptop only has USB-C on it. can I use a UB-C to USB-C?

I thought this thing was suppose to get under 3ms round trip latency ?

Nice demo. Is it OK to record the sounds of a keyboard through its headphone jack? Thanks.

Great video! Enjoyed the quality and testing of the scarlet 2i2 3rd generation. I just got one for Christmas and I'm stoked.

is mine the only one with low gain?

is this works on Adobe Audition on windows 10?

Love the air circuit

Extraordinarily helpful and presented in a gentle mix of Techie and non-Techie language. Thank you for this. We just bought a 2i2 3rd gen for Duet and Dual simultaneous Audiobook Narration. And we've become converts to your channel. Thanks! Ralph & Kendra SQUEAKY CHEESE PRODUCTIONS, LLC

I'm so comfused

Can you plug it through windows or is it only for ios device's

Where do you get the 48volts from ?

the full song demo was SO good

Great video.

Hi! I have a problem with my audio recording, suddenly it sounds metallic and the S effect is high, looks like it takes all the high frequencies. I have a soundproof booth equipped with Scarlett 2i2, and Shure MV7.
I wanna fix the problem as soon as possible since I work full time on it, and editing the recording is not bringing any good.
Is there anyone that can help or had the same problem? Cheers!!!

Thank you for the video sir! liked and subbed.

And buy one from your local music store. The one with guitars hanging on the wall

What is a Road T1? And can just a regular guitar cable be plugged in where you have the Road T1?

IMHO, 56 dB gain is not enough. I would like to see 66 dB as the minimum acceptable in a quality interface.
