The Scarlett 2i2 Anniversary Edition packs the latest 4th Generation features into an iconic ISA-blue chassis that recalls the renowned channel strips that first bore the Focusrite name.

This limited production run features the historic ff logo embossed on the top of its aluminium casing and a hidden tribute to the company’s engineering legacy silkscreened on the underside in the form of the original ISA 110 and Studio Console schematics. Each Scarlett 2i2 Anniversary Edition also comes packaged in its own collectible 40th-anniversary gift box.

The Anniversary Edition interface includes the full 4th Gen feature set and software bundle, plus an exclusive collection of additional plugins.
