Description:
Ideal for singer songwriters and guitar players who want to record studio-quality music Scarlett Solo is our simplest and most compact interface. It's ideal for singer songwriters and guitar players looking for the easiest way to record studio-quality music onto Mac or PC. Take it anywhere, connect by USB, plug a mic and guitar straight in, and immediately start recording with the same sound quality as the rest of the latest Scarlett range.
Focusrite interfaces are perfect partners for Pro Tools, so Scarlett Solo comes with Pro Tools | First - Focusrite Creative pack, as well as Ableton Live Lite recording software and a suite of software and samples, so you can start recording straight away. As you’d expect, it works flawlessly with all major DAWs on Windows and Mac.
Sound Like You
Easily make recordings that sound exactly like you. Connect your microphone to
our natural sounding Scarlett preamp, and plug your guitar straight into a newly
designed input, both of which capture studio-quality audio that sounds just the
way you intended. 48V phantom power means you can use any mic you want.
Record Guitar and Vocals Simultaneously
Record your guitar and vocals at the same time, onto separate tracks. If one
doesn't sound right, you won't have to re-record both. You can also apply
separate effects: amp simulation to your guitar, for example, and reverb on your
vocal.
Effects in Real Time
Super-low latency lets you enhance your recordings in ways that are simply
impossible with any other interface in this class, like enabling real-time
guitar amp simulation and vocal reverb (subject to your software, settings and
computer).
Start Recording Today
Compose, record, edit, save and export your music straight away, with
time-unlimited versions of industry-standard music software: Ableton Live Lite
and Pro Tools | First - Focusrite Creative Pack, which features 12 additional
plug-ins including the Eleven Lite for real life guitar amp emulations and Black
Op for iconic distortions and overdrives. You also get Softube's Time and Tone
bundle, the Focusrite Red Plug-In Suite, Novation's Bass Station Virtual
synthesiser and 2GB of Loopmasters samples. All the software is simple enough
for beginners, yet sophisticated enough for advanced users.
Record Absolutely Anywhere
Never miss another moment of inspiration. Capture ideas at a friend’s house, or
record your next open mic night: Scarlett Solo is tiny and tough enough to take
anywhere - but sounds just like our biggest Scarlett interfaces. You don’t need
a power supply, either – just connect with a USB cable and start recording.
Designed for Guitarists
No matter how loud you play, or how hot your pick-ups, the newly-designed
instrument input can handle it. You'll be free to play without the worry of
unwanted distortion.
New Generation - Better In Every Way
The latest generation Scarlett Solo is packed full of upgrades. It operates at
sample rates all the way up to 192kHz with new super-low latency* that lets you
record and monitor with software effects in real time. We completely redesigned
the instrument input so it can handle even the hottest guitar pick-ups, and
we’ve made it easier than ever to set your levels accurately. We’ve also built
in new analogue protection circuitry across the inputs and the outputs, to guard
your interface against unwanted power surges.
Crisp and Clear
Conversion
Converting your performance into digital audio and back again is the most
important part of the recording process. We’ve been making class-leading
converters for over 20 years, and Scarlett Solo has the best converters of any
interface in its class. You can really hear the difference! Every part of your
recording will be beautifully crisp and clear, even when you’re playing softly.
This means you can amplify your quieter moments without any unwanted hiss or
buzzing.
Find the Perfect Level
Setting the perfect level couldn’t be easier, thanks to our signature halos
around the gain knobs. They glow a reassuring shade of green when you’re
recording at the perfect volume. If they turn red, it’s time to back off.

How To Set Up Your APM Series Speakers:
All About Your APM5 Studio Monitors:
Unboxing Video of APM5B:
Description:
The Rockville APM5 Active Studio Monitor Comes in Pairs and each monitor will be bi-amped. What this means is that there is a separate amp for the highs and a Separate amp for the lows! Each speaker has 125 watts peak output power and 62.5 watts RMS giving you a total of 250 watts peak and 125 watts RMS per pair. We spent a lot of time developing the most premium studio monitors we ever built! I am very pleased and excited to talk to you guys about what we did to make these speakers sound as good as they do. If you are an audiophile you will find what we did to be quite amazing. Keep in mind, the only reason our price point is not 300 % higher is because you are buying manufacturer direct. We are one of the leading speaker manufacturers in the USA, and we have a state of the art manufacturing process. There is a lot to talk about so I will break it down into sections.
Description of the enclosure:?
We chose a wooden enclosure as opposed to a plastic enclosure. Your studio is made of wood for a reason. The sound characteristics of high quality wood are better than plastic. We only use the highest quality MDF wood. We do not bother with cheap particle board material when we want to make the best speakers. The thickness is 0.5” around and the front board is a full 1” thick to give you the best sound quality possible. The enclosure is built with the perfect amount of air space to maximize sound quality for a studio.
Every studio or computer room should look beautiful. We believe speakers should enhance the look of a room. We make these speakers in 3 beautiful finishes. Painted black, painted white, and wood finish. We use “baking paint” made for wood surfaces. It is long lasting and the best paint for speakers! We went with a beautiful finish that is mostly matte with a slight shine to it. Our designers spent countless hours on the color to make sure it is not only beautiful but elegant as well to improve the appearance of your studio or room. We kept all the controls on the back of the speaker, which will keep the speaker looking very modern and elegant. The rear port is built to perfect spec to enhance the sound. The tweeter has a curved front bezel to make the highs crystal clear and distortion free.
Amplifier and Speaker Components Details:
To get the most efficiency we use a class “D” amplifier. We use the best quality components from the most reputable circuit manufacturers in the world in order to produce crystal clear sound. Most brands do not like to reveal what’s in the guts of the speaker. We feel differently. We want you to know what is inside so you realize how good of a value we are offering and also so that you can understand how good these really are. We use ADAU 1701 for audio processing and TPA3116 for amplification. These are both known to be best in class circuit designs. These components are amazing and allow us to adjust the sound via soft programing on a computer during the design stage to get the perfect sound. ADI and TI are the names of the makers of these IC’s. Most people do not know brand names that make circuits; but these are the most famous and reliable in the industry. Only very high end manufacturers like us use these components.
For highs, we have Ferro fluid enhanced ¾” neodymium silk dome tweeters with metal grill protection. If you are an audiophile I am sure you have tested and love the sound of silk dome tweeters. The neo magnet is strong and can handle a lot of heat. This enabled us to beef up the amplifier power without worrying about melting and blowing the tweeter. The highs on these sound really good! I cannot wait for you all to hear it in person, because I cannot describe how good these sound! You really need to listen to them in person.
We use a 5.25” woofer. This will out-perform a regular 5” woofer any day! The bass sounds amazing on these! Very clear and punchy! The woofer has an injection molded polypropylene cone. This is an engineered type of plastic that is used on many speakers today. It is strong and puts out a great sound. The rubber woofer surrounds increase sound quality and eliminate unwanted distortions. They sound better than foam surrounds in my opinion, which is why we went with rubber. The computer optimized electronic crossover network supplies amazing sounding highs, lows, and mids. Basically it filters out unwanted frequencies from each component so that each speaker plays the right frequencies so that the speaker can go loud without distorting. We use very high-grade crossover filters in our speakers. The specially wounded voice coils produce accurate response along the entire frequency spectrum. We developed the speakers with the most optimized magnet structure, cone, and cabinet space with the goal of reproducing the sound to play back exactly the way it was recorded!
Added benefits:
The rear-firing port is shaped and designed by sound engineers to reduce port turbulence and deliver distortion free top sound quality!
Our factory uses the latest Precision Glue Machine (Over 500 meter Tunnel Oven). But you may ask why am I talking about glue? Well, actually, the glue on speakers is of the upmost importance. If the glue does not hold up, the speaker will be done and blow. We use the latest machinery to manufacture these speakers. The SPL of the speaker goes up when you use better glue and a better machine that can secure the glue in place. If the glue can handle more heat than your speaker can handle more power!
Thick “Wadding” protects the inside of the speaker cabinet. This can be seen if the speaker cabinet is removed. Basically, wadding is a white chemical silk type of material that we put inside the speaker cabinet for multiple reasons. It helps to make the sound more clear, and at the same time protects all the parts inside the speaker. This material is also a fire retardant. This is unique to our speakers. Most other brands do not take this step due to the cost of the material, but it is a game changer if you are trying to create the best speaker!
Inputs and Outputs and Rear Panel Controls:
As I mentioned earlier, we kept all the controls on the rear of the unit to make the speaker look clean and modern. The volume control, bass, and treble controls are all found on the rear of the unit.
These Monitors have all your standard studio inputs and outputs such as a ¼” and XLR combo input jack, RCA input, 3.5MM headphone output. We also added a USB port. The reason we did this is because instead of having to use the 3.5MM or 1/4" TRS jack, you can now directly select the speakers as an output on your computer without using an interface! And you will get true stereo sound!
