{"product_id":"focusrite-clarett-octopre-8-channel-microphone-preamp","title":"Focusrite Clarett-OctoPre 8-Channel Microphone Preamp","description":"\u003cp\u003eClarett OctoPre provides eight specially-designed Clarett mic pres and 24-bit, 192 kHz A-D and D-A conversion that can be used to extend the capabilities of a Clarett interface – or any other interface fitted with ADAT optical inputs and outputs. In addition to the mic pres there are eight channels of D-A conversion providing eight analogue outputs.\u003c\/p\u003e \r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \r\n\u003cul\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003e8-channel I\/O mic\/line expansion with ADAT interfacing\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003eEight Clarett-style mic pres with 'Air' transformer emulation effect\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003eEight line outputs fed from D-A or mic pres\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003e24-bit A-D and D-A up to 192kHz sample rate - ideal for hi-res audio\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003eDual-port ADAT I\/O - eight channels at up to 96kHz, four channels at 176.4\/192kHz\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003eSwitched insert with true bypass on every channel\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003eMic Pres and front panel instrument inputs with extra headroom\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003eSix-segment LED metering and channel clip indicators\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003e48v Phantom Power to all inputs\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003eWord Clock I\/O and JetPLL jitter elimination\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \r\n\u003cp\u003eThe eight mic pres feature automatic mic\/line switching inputs and two front-panel instrument inputs. Designed specifically for the Clarett range, they offer plenty of gain, yet low noise and distortion - and great sound quality. They also include a special “Air” feature that switches in an analogue model of the classic transformer-based Focusrite ISA mic pre,  switching the impedance of the preamp to that of the original ISA and enabling a ‘transformer resonance effect’, giving  microphone sources the air and clarity of an ISA transformer-based mic pre recording. In addition, the mic pres have plenty of headroom and are ideal for recording drums and other extreme level sources.\u003c\/p\u003e \r\n\u003cp\u003eThe front panel instrument inputs feature extra headroom to handle high-output pickups, while the rear panel includes universal XLR\/jack connectors for the remaining auto-switching mic\/line inputs. In addition, each input has its own switched insertion point for single-cable connection of compression, equalisation and other outboard analogue processing - with hard-wired relay bypass, so you can leave outboard gear or a patchbay connected ready to access at the press of a button. The inputs drive eight channels of precision 24-bit Focusrite A-D with 118dB dynamic range and standard sample rates up to 192kHz.\u003c\/p\u003e \r\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to providing eight mic pres, the Clarett OctoPre offers D-A conversion (from the ADAT inputs, with 119dB dynamic range) of up to eight channels, making it perfect for mixing as well as tracking. The outputs appear on a 25-pin DSUB connector with standard wiring. The line outputs can optionally provide line level output feeds from the mic pres – useful for feeding a live console, for example, while recording the digital outputs. Aside from the insert point, the Clarett OctoPre is balanced end-to-end for maximum noise immunity.\u003c\/p\u003e \r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's In The Box:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \r\n\u003cul\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003eClarett Octopre\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003eGetting Started Guide\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n  \u003cli\u003ePower Cable\u003c\/li\u003e \r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Focusrite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48409096276,"sku":"1172934","price":699.99,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/sg-2111.myshopify.com\/products\/focusrite-clarett-octopre-8-channel-microphone-preamp","provider":"SG_2111","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
