EIGHT SCARLETT MIC PRES

Building on the features of the Scarlett OctoPre, Scarlett OctoPre Dynamic brings you the ultimate Scarlett expansion with eight Scarlett mic preamps and analogue compression on every input channel providing a musical, soft-knee style of compression for more subtle control of your dynamics. The MORE button then allows you to double the ratio for more aggressive compression effects.

DUAL HIGH-HEADROOM INSTRUMENT INPUTS

Two high-headroom instrument inputs will handle high-output guitar pickups. Don't forget to engage a bit of compression, great for controlling the dynamics of electric basses and guitars.

EXPAND THE NUMBER OF OUTPUTS IN YOUR STUDIO

Scarlett OctoPre Dynamic's eight analogue outputs can be sourced either directly from the mic preamps for live use, or via the ADAT inputs to give you eight more analogue outputs channels from your DAW.
