Focusrite Platinum OctoPre 8-Channel Mic Preamp
Focusrite OctoPre

General Description
The Platinum OctoPre provides eight pristine discrete channels of Focusrite Class A mic pre and compression. Each channel features a revolutionary compressor/limiter circuit, providing a warm-sounding compressor, which morphs into a brick wall limiter to avoid those critical overs, ensuring total control over all eight channels. The mic pres featured in OctoPre are the same as those featured elsewhere in the award winning Focusrite Platinum range. They are a transistor-based Class A design utilizing the same full-bandwidth philosophy as the legendary Red and ISA mic pres, ensuring detail and clarity without coloration. The first two 'super channels' also feature phase reverse, as well as TRS jack inputs on the front fascia for quick and easy, DI-free instrument plug-in.

Eight line level balanced (+4 dBu) analogue inputs and outputs are provided as standard via 25-pin D-type connectors. These D-type connectors may be routed to 8 XLRs by means of an 8-way 25-pin D-type to 8 XLR breakout cable, available separately (click here to download a PDF of the pinout details). In addition to the analog outputs, the OctoPre can be fitted with one of the following two not included digital output options: 24-bit/96 kHz ADAT(TM) interface card and the 24-bit/96 kHz AES/SPDIF/ADAT(TM) interface card. With Class A Focusrite processing and almost all the interface options known to man, the Platinum Octopre is the perfect partner for any Pro Tools system or any other digital audio workstation, making high quality, multi-channel recording easy. Equally it could be utilized as an instant location recording solution, or as an additional set of mic pres for any analogue or digital console, or hard disk recorder.
