I've been using a 1st gen Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 for the past 5 months. It has turned out to be very reliable and it works great but the only thing I don't like is the latency. I wanted to try out the 2nd gen 2i2 since Focusrite managed to lower the overall latency considerably.

This makes it so there won't be clipping problems with hot/active pickups. The 1st gen 2i2 and Solo models had problems with that since they lack a PAD button (that's why I ended up with a 2i4). I tested the 2nd gen 2i2 using a guitar with Seymour Duncan Blackouts and it indeed works well without clipping.
