General

Seemingly built on the notion of 'What else can we cram in there?', the Focusrite Red 8Line is all about big numbers. From the massive amount of pro-grade functions to the army of digital and analogue inputs and outputs, this top-shelf audio interface has it all.

The Focusrite Red 8Line: 7.1 Audio and Dolby Atmos Support

Let's start with some numbers then. This big-studio interface comes with a whopping 58 inputs an 64 outputs, including eight analogue inputs and ten analogue outputs, plus two Red Evolution microphone preamps. In terms of digital connections, you're treated to Thunderbolt 3, DigiLink, ADAT, S/PDIF, ProTools HD and Dante. In addition, you're looking at an impressive 121dB dynamic range. Got a RedNet R1 controller? That can be plugged into the 8Line too.

Included Software

The Red 8Line comes complete with a serious stack of software, including the Focusrite Red 2 & 3 Plug-in Suite, various Brainworx plug-ins, software versions of Focusrite's recently released analogue hardware effects, and much much. While it doesn't come cheap, this audio interface does get you nothing but the best of the best.
