Description
The Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB Interface and Recording Accessories Kit from B&H includes the Scarlett 2i2 USB interface, Cardioid Condenser Microphone, a pair of closed back headphones, a tripod mic stand with fixed boom arm, a gooseneck nylon pop filter, and XLR mic cable.
The Scarlett 2i2 interface features 2 channels of input and output and has dual front-panel combination XLR/TRS inputs for connecting both mic and instruments. It is capable of tracking in up to 96kHz/24-bit resolution and has Focusrite preamps designed for working with dynamic, ribbon, and condensers mics. It is housed in an aluminium unibody chassis designed for portability.
You can monitor playback from the Scarlett 2i2 through its front-panel headphone output and the included closed-back headphones. They are powered by 40mm drivers and have a single-sided 15-foot cable and cushioned headband. The gooseneck nylon pop filter can be used to reduce plosives in vocal performances and attaches to the included tripod mic stand. An XLR cable allows you to connect your microphone to the Scarlett 2i2.
Focusrite 's second-generation Scarlett 2i2 is a portable audio interface designed specifically for use in a portable computing environment. Lightweight at 0.6 kg, the device sports two inputs, two outputs, instrument/line switches, 48V Phantom power, direct monitoring, a discrete headphone output, and the ability to draw power via USB. It's designed to operate handily at resolutions and sample rates of up to 24-bit/192 kHz, and its combination front-panel inputs render it suitable for tracking instruments with much in the way of headroom and little in the way of distortion.
In addition to its two balanced monitor outputs, the Scarlett 2i2 offers a volume-controllable headphone output on the front. Metal gain controls and a red metal chassis provide a durable construction which can be taken on the road. The 2i2 provides a round-trip latency as low as 2.74 ms at 96 kHz, allowing you to record and monitor processed sound sources in real time.
An included Pro Tools | First Focusrite Creative pack is enhanced by a suite of Focusrite Scarlett plug-ins, a set of tools that includes compression, AEQ, gating, and reverb. The Novation Bass Station software synthesiser can be used to add bass or melody, and a sample pack from Loopmasters contains drum loops and sound effects. Ableton Live is included to boot. Focusrite's Red Plug-In Suite (AAX, Audio Units, and VST) delivers modules based on the classic Focusrite Red 2 AEQ and Red 3 Compressor hardware. Also included in this bundle is the Softube Time and Tone Pack for further sonic exploration within your chosen DAW.
The HPC-A30 Closed-Back Studio Monitor Headphones from Polsen are designed for monitoring audio in studio, field, mobile, and DJ applications. They feature 50mm drivers that provide a frequency response of 18Hz to 22kHz for accurate reproduction of your audio.
The ear cups on the HPC-A30 have an around-ear (circumaural), closed-back design, allowing for the increased isolation often desired while tracking or monitoring playback. Additionally, the ear cups can be pivoted for single-ear monitoring. The headphones have a collapsible folding mechanism for compact storage and transport. A padded and adjustable headband provides comfort during extended use. The 32-ohm impedance allows for ample volume when used with mobile devices. The headphones have a single-sided, 9.8-foot cable that terminates in a 3.5mm stereo connector. A 1/4" adapter is included for additional compatibility.
The Auray MS-5230F Tripod Microphone Stand with Fixed Boom features durable, steel construction. The 31.5" boom arm allows you to angle the mic however you need it. An ergonomic twist-action clutch helps adjust the height of the stand, while the reinforced tripod base and non-slip feet keep it firmly and sturdily in place. The Auray MS-5230F mic stand collapses for easy transport.
The Auray PFSS-55 Pop Filter with Gooseneck features double-layered nylon to greatly reduce noise from aspirated plosives like "p" and "b" sounds. The PFSS-55's double-layered nylon filter gently disperses the explosive rush of air from speaking and breathing, while protecting your microphone from corrosive moisture. The flexible gooseneck makes it easy to position the filter exactly where you need it, the spring-loaded clamp provides fast and easy mounting and the locking bolt holds the PFSS-55 firmly into place. These features make the PFSS-55 Pop Filter ideal for desktops and also compatible with microphone stands.
The Kopul Studio Elite 4000 Series XLR M to XLR F Microphone Cable (20') is a studio-quality cable for connecting mics to mixers, preamps, audio interfaces and recorders; or to be used in any other application where XLR connectivity is required. The cable is engineered to be both quiet and durable, and is well-suited for critical recording and broadcast situations.
Studio Elite 4000 Series cables are made from 24 AWG OFC copper wire that's wrapped with POE insulation and a conductive PVC inner shield. A cotton-yarn inner layer helps reduce electrostatic and microphonic noise. A 98% braided outer shield makes the cable resistant to EMI and RFI noise. The Neutrix XX silver connectors provide a high level of connectivity, and all the solder connections are shrink-wrapped for protection.
The AT2020 Cardioid Condenser Microphone from Audio-Technica is designed for vocal and general instrument capturing in project and professional studio environments. The capsule features a low-mass, side-address diaphragm with a cardioid polar pattern for rejecting ambient and noise at the off-axis sections of the microphone capsule. A linear frequency response of 20 Hz to 20 kHz enables the flexibility to accurately reproduce signals from a wide variety of sources. High SPL handling and wide dynamic range allow the AT2020 to capture loud signals with minimal noise and distortion. The microphone includes a pivoting, threaded stand mount for accurate positioning.

This has everything I needed! I searched far and wide online and this was the perfect choice. It showed up within 2 days, which I find phenomenal! Also I appreciated the lollies thrown in, very kind. Rubber Monkey were very efficient and called me to let me know that there would be two separate packages, which amazingly enough both arrive the same day as each other despite one coming from Auckland and the other from Wellington. 10 out of 10, thank you!!Read more Read less
