The Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 3rd Gen shares much in common with the 4i4 and even the 2i2/solo, but with a few key differences. Is the Scarlett 8i6 enough of an upgrade from its smaller siblings to consider if you don't require its additional inputs?
In this video I unbox the 8i6, review its features and I/O, test a variety of mics with the interface, and take a look at why the Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 is more than simply a 4i4 with a few additional inputs. Some of the Scarlett 8i6 features may be compelling enough to offer value. In fact, the Focusrite Scarlett 8i6 may just be the answer to audio quality and your workflow. Listen to the mic tests and let me know in the comments is the Scarlett 8i6 could be an option for you.
Thanks for watching!

============================================================
Do This First:
To get the most out of your recording or streaming space, I recommend sound treatment including acoustic absorption panels. This is the single biggest way to improve your audio before investing in other gear. You can make your own, or I highly recommend GIK Acoustics as they manufacture some of the best quality panels available at an excellent value.
