Founded in 1985 by legendary audio engineer Rupert Neve, Focusrite began with a commission from producer George Martin to design microphone preamps for AIR Studios' recording consoles. The resulting ISA 110 module set a new standard for clarity in studio recording and established the company's reputation for exceptional preamp design. Phil Dudderidge acquired the company in 1989 and redirected its focus from bespoke consoles toward more accessible pro audio equipment, eventually building Focusrite into one of the most widely used recording brands in the world.
Focusrite is best known for the Scarlett series of USB audio interfaces, which are the best-selling audio interfaces globally, used by over four million people across 180 countries. The range spans from the compact Scarlett Solo to multi-input models like the Scarlett 18i20, serving everyone from bedroom producers to professional studios. Beyond Scarlett, the company offers the Clarett+ line of premium interfaces, the ISA range of rackmount preamps descended from the original Neve designs, the RedNet series for Dante audio-over-IP networking, and the Vocaster line built specifically for podcasters. Headquartered in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, England, Focusrite operates as part of Focusrite plc, a publicly traded group that also encompasses Novation, ADAM Audio, Sequential, and Martin Audio.
Focusrite has 165 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Audio Interfaces, Preamps, and Effects Processors. Their gear is featured by 499 artists, with the strongest followings in Electronic, Rock, and Pop. Notable users include Robert Del Naja, Misha Mansoor, and Jacob Collier. Focusrite's catalog spans the full price spectrum — from entry-level options to high-end flagships.
