In addition, every plug-in parameter can be finely tuned to bring out the optimum sound you want, exactly the way you want it. So whether you want a fast set-up or an advanced set-up, Scarlett is destined to become your new 'go-to' plug-in.

Said to be the faithful re-creations of classic compressors and gates, Scarlett plugins were modeled on original ear-tuned hardware optical compressors exclusive to Focusrite, for a 1960s Opto sound.

The Gate can operate in stereo mode and, in different dual mono configurations, one signal can be used to trigger the gate of another. According to Focusrite, this use of the Gate would be ideal for tightening up a bass line. Regarding EQ curves and controls, Scarlett's filters, parametric mids, and shelving take the same six-band EQ approach as the Focusrite's Red 2 and ISA EQs. Likewise, the Reverb was based on classic algorithmic studio reverb designs and offers precise control.

Scarlett works with VST, AU, and RTAS (Pro Tools) hosts.
