Manufacturer's Description

THE CLARETT SOUND – NOW ON USB

Clarett USB lays down the challenge to interfaces twice the price and brings the Clarett sound to both Mac® and PC over USB. The range features specially designed high performance, low-noise (-128dB EIN) mic pres with a low distortion, ultra-linear design that guarantees a clean, open and transparent sound, giving accurate representation of the original performance. Record every detail with Clarett 4Pre USB.

INS AND OUTS

Four combination inputs, two of which are also high-impedance instrument inputs, can record super-hot pickups with no unwanted distortion. Gain Halo meters make it easy for you to set the input level. Four fixed line inputs are also included, and the ADAT input gives you an additional eight channels. Outs include two monitor outputs with anti-thump technology, a headphone output with volume control, and two line outputs.
