Featuring eight channels of Focusrite's 2nd generation Scarlett preamps and a soft-knee VCA compressor on every channel. Scarlett OctoPre Dynamic lets you control the dynamics of all your input signals with an easy-to-use single-knob analogue compressor on every channel. There's a transparent mode for subtle compression plus a More button that doubles the ratio for compression with effect. 

Outputs For Live or Standalone Use

In addition to the eight input channels, Scarlett OctoPre Dynamic includes eight line outputs, sourced either from the ADAT inputs for eight additional analogue outputs, or directly from the mic inputs for use in a live sound environment. 

Plenty of Headroom

Scarlett OctoPre Dynamic is ideal for expanding any high-quality, multi-channel recording system. With its high-headroom mic, line and dual instrument inputs and analog compression, it's ideal for tracking drums as well guitars, keyboards, vocals, and more. Meanwhile, the eight outputs give you the option of expanding your analog outputs over and above the Scarlett OctoPre.
