    Description

    Focusrite Clarett Octopre + 5' Mogami DB-25 Breakout Cable (8 x XLR Male) & 3 ADAT cables (2 x 10', 1 x 6')
    Bought a few years ago to record drums and used it maybe once or twice; then half my band moved away to Hawaii and it sat in my rack unused ever since. I track things one at a time solo so I don't need all that IO
    I took great care with this gear. It is Mint condition. This thing is WITHOUT blemishes. It doesn't even have rack rash. It's basically brand new. With all the accessories it comes with, it's worth more than a brand new base unit. No low balls please. Brand new, this stuff is worth about 0. My unit is essentially new for all intents and purposes, and you save 200 bucks.

    Need more channels from your Clarett interface? The Focusrite Clarett OctoPre is for you. The OctoPre expands your setup with eight additional Clarett mic preamps - each with switchable Air effect to achieve that acclaimed Focusrite ISA-type transformer sound. Focusrite's high-resolution 24-bit/192kHz AD/DA converters assure the highest quality digital conversion. OctoPre gives you eight line outputs to feed your analog rig, along with ADAT optical I/O to expand any ADAT-equipped interface. OctoPre's pristine preamps, high-quality conversion, and expansion capabilities make it the ideal way to grow your studio.
    Pristine mic pres with Air effect
    Engineered specifically for the Clarett range, the mic preamps in the Clarett OctoPre deliver all the gain you need with extremely low noise and distortion. They also include Focusrite's Air circuit that engages an analog model of the company's classic transformer-based ISA mic pre. You'll love the sound of these preamps: sweet, open, and very clean.
    Accurate digital conversion and sync
    Sweetwater engineers know that conversion is key to superior digital audio, and every Clarett features Focusrite's class-leading 24-bit/192kHz conversion. Offering up to 119dB of dynamic range, Clarett is the easy, clean way to get sound in and out of your DAW.
    Designed for flexibility
    The Clarett OctoPre's front-panel instrument inputs are engineered with generous headroom to easily handle high-output pickups, and the rear panel is fitted with universal XLR/jack combo connectors for your remaining auto-switching mic/line inputs. For added flexibility, each input has its own switched insertion point that allows single-cable connection of compressors, EQs, or other outboard analog processing gear. The inserts feature a hard-wired relay bypass, so you can have your outboard equipment or a patchbay connected and ready to rock at the push of a button.
