Great affordable audio interface with lots of I/O options
When looking for a cheap audio interface with lots of inputs and outputs, you'll be hard pressed to find an interface with as many features as this interface for the same money. with 18 inputs and 20 outputs, some analog and some digital, this interface is great for driving multi-speaker setups.
The preamps are adequate and add relatively little noise when compared to earlier generations of the 18i20.
There are many options for routing audio through this interface, all of this can be tweaked using the Focusrite Control software. Unfortunately, this software is a bit quirky and unreliable at best, with your settings sometimes resetting for apparently no real reason. You'll need this software for most settings, as there are very few physical controls on the unit itself. I don't consider this a problem myself, but it can be frustrating when the software doesn't work as intended. Overall I recommend this interface for those who want a decent multi-output interface on a budget.

Goed, maar had beter verwacht
Ik heb deze gekocht om meer inputs te hebben, zodat ik niet steeds alle gain instellingen hoef te wijzigen bij switch van line naar mics etc. Installatie ging redelijk goed via de online programma's, de plugins die je erbij krijgt is wel even gedoe en installatie werkt niet altijd even goed.
In gebruik is de klank en kwaliteit vrij goed, maar ik heb regelmatig opeens een hard storingspiekje dat ook mee opgenomen wordt. Lijkt volledig random te zijn en de buffer staat niet heel zwaar ingesteld. Toch maar gehouden, omdat alles nu ingebouwd zit, maar ik weet niet of ik het nog eens zou kopen.

Focusrite never a fail
it would be a lot easier if the volume knob adjusted with the software. so that the hardware and software volume is equal. It is also a pity that the headphone output is shared with out 7/8 8/9. but otherwise a nice device, good sound and many options.
