The Focusrite Scarlett Solo 4th Gen is the number 6 entry in this guide: a USB-C audio interface at £119, rated 4.5 out of 5 across 2,725 ratings. The listing describes one XLR mic preamp and one Hi-Z instrument input, a 120dB dynamic range, and converters shared with Focusrite's flagship interfaces.

The spec table is where this one gets interesting. "Frequency Response" is filled in as 96 KHz, while "Maximum Sample Rate" two rows further down says 192 KHz — and the same 192 kHz figure turns up in the item highlight as "24-Bit/192kHz". A frequency response and a sample rate are not the same measurement, so the 96 KHz entry does not describe the 192 kHz claim sitting beside it. "Number of Channels" says 2, which reads like two mic preamps until the highlight narrows it to one XLR input and one instrument input. And the included cable is listed as a USB A-C cable, while the product name leads with USB-C. Everything on this page is quoted from the Amazon listing for this interface, not from any testing of our own.
