Very good beginner gear
Excellent beginner gear, with 1 TRS and 1 Jack input and 2 balanced outputs. Very sturdy, high quality built.
The "Air" button is nice to brighten up your music.
Minor points are: it has a direct monitor output, but the no separate volume control for it.
Since gen.3 the device is listed as Mass Storage Device after connecting. You need the proprietary Focusrite software to switch it to audio device. This wasn't the case with gen. 2 devices.

All in all very good
To be honest, I don't really have that much to say about the interface. It looks, feels and sounds pretty high-quality, performs well and if you're only looking to record vocals and one instrument at a time chances are you're going to enjoy this interface as much as I did for the longest time.
Two things I'd like to add, however, are that FIRSTLY, if you own headphones with an impendance >100 ohm, I would urge you to maybe look for other interfaces with an integrated amplifier, as the solo doesn't come with a potent enough headphone amp (at least not for my 250 ohm dt770 pros) and, SECONDLY, a problem I DID have with the interface after about a year of using it, is a certain crackle in my monitors when i turn the volume knob, coming from a buildup of dirt behind the volume knob itself. I've reported this to Focusrite and until now they've been very happy to help, I might even get a replacement free of charge because I still am eligible for one due to their warranty. I still felt like including this.
Overall though, pretty decent interface. Would recommend to anybody looking to buy their first or (as in my case) second audio interface. Does it's job very well with no limitations and compromises in audio quality.

Outstanding quality for a very affordable price.
I got this interface as an addition to my home studio; I mainly use it to track bass and guitars. All I can really say is that I have no complaints whatsoever!
The design is very nice, the device itself feels very sturdy. The free software perks that are included are very nice as well. Focusrite provides several detailed instructional videos, so installation is also a walk in the park.
PROS:
- Beautiful and sturdy design;
- Easy to install, thanks to Focusrite's instructions;
CONS:
- I guess that a con for some people can be that you can only hook up one instrument and one microphone at the same time. For me this is no problem, since I'm only tracking one instrument at a time.

I use the Rode NT1-a microphone, the gain handle does not start to burn
I use the Rode NT1-a microphone, the gain handle does not start to burn until you turn it half, it gets very dirty with kotskami, everything sounds good, there are some problems with the drivers, namely "click". Overall not bad

does what it promishes
it a good audio interface for the very beginner, or people that know they will never need more than the very basic features this comes with, but for the life of me I cannot understand why there is only 1 rotary knob for both headphones in the front and the speaker outs in the back and no way of shutting one out off unless counting directly disconnecting and reconnecting the cables every time,
but for the price it sounds good and the features it comes with works

Easy to use
Compact design and easy to use.
Comes with Ableton Live 11 Lite software licence (needs to be redeemed and video tutorial on some of the basics of the program ). Perfect for when you just whant to plugin and play on the go.
