3. Using the Clarett 2Pre USB as an on-stage mic pre-amp
The Clarett 2Pre USB automatically stores Focusrite Control settings within the hardware. This
feature lets you congure it as a pair of inputs – mic, line or instrument – for use as a stand-alone
device. This allows you to use it on stage in a live environment where no computer connection is
required, for example.
To FOH Mixer
In the example illustrated, a mic and a guitar are connected to the inputs of the Clarett 2Pre USB;
Outputs 1 and 2 go to the main PA system. The performer can adjust the volume of the mic and guitar
separately from the front panel.
