      Introducing Pro Tools First

      Where Legends Begin

      Pro Tools | First allows users access to one of the most popular Audio Recording/Editing softwares within the Music Industry. With many of the same tools used by the Pros, you can be sure that Pro Tools | First offers everything that you need to create high quality recordings straight out of the box - absolutely free. Pro Tools | First is simple enough for beginners, yet sophisticated for experienced musicians, enabling you to quickly compose, record, edit, and mix music. Entry to the industry's most trusted audio workstation has never been easier.
      Users are greeted with an easy-to-use interface with a selection of session templates available from the outset. This allows Musicians to begin recording with a number of preloaded instrument tracks to produce music within a variety of different genres. No matter what your musical background, Pro Tools | First opens up the ability for anyone to turn ideas in your head into fully realised songs.
      Also included with the software, is a number of VLS plug-ins that generate instrument sounds - anything from beats and loops, to guitars, bass, and more cowbell. These VLS plug-ins allow you to compose your own music without any external instruments. Simply use the provided interfaces within Pro Tools | First to edit MIDI, correct pitch inconsistencies and program synthesisers and orchestral instruments.
      Once you have finalised your song, you can take things a step further with the 20 effects, sound processors, and utility plug-ins to clean up your mix and export a final, mastered product; ready to release online and show the world what you are capable of.

      Sound just like you

      The Scarlett Solo USB audio interface delivers all the core elements you need to record your best performance. Though compact, it still delivers the same class-leading sound quality and digital conversion as the rest of the latest Scarlett range. It has a single natural-sounding Scarlett mic preamp, a newly-designed instrument input and super-low latency*. Connect the large diaphragm CM25 condenser mic, plug in your guitar and immediately capture studio-quality sound. Plug in the HP60 closed-back headphones for honest playback without any distracting background noises. Connect your speakers, turn up the volume and totally immerse yourself in sound.

      New Generation - Better in every way

      The second generation Scarlett range is packed full of upgrades. New super-low latency* will bring confidence to your performance, letting you record and monitor with software effects in real time. New metal gain controls and a sleeker red metal chassis underscore its improved industrial design, built to go anywhere. The Scarlett range also now operates at sample rates all the way up to 192kHz, and the input channels have evolved too. The latest Scarlett mic preamp features a more even gain structure, so you can accurately set your levels, and the instrument input has also been completely redesigned so it can handle seriously hot guitar pick-ups. Finally, Focusrite have provided analogue protection circuitry across both the inputs and the outputs, to guard your interface against unwanted power surges.

      All you need to record anywhere

      Compact and portable enough to take anywhere, you won't even need a power supply; Scarlett Solo is connected and powered by a single USB cable. Scarlett Solo works with all major DAWs on Mac and PC. It also comes with the software and effects you need to start recording; an exclusive version of Pro Tools | First Focusrite Creative Pack (featuring 12 additional plug-ins including the Eleven Lite for real life guitar amp emulations), Ableton Live Lite, the Softube Time and Tone Bundle, Focusrite's Red Plug-In Suite, 2GB of Loopmasters samples and more.

      Effects in Real Time

      Don't let latency hold you back. Enhance your recordings in ways that are simply impossible with any other interface in this class , like real-time guitar amp simulation and vocal reverb (depending on your software, settings and computer).
