Re: Focusrite 18i8 and aura big problems

Hi Guys,

We have posted a beta Scarlett MixControl 1.9b3 with a firmware update for the 18i8 which addresses this "Standalone Settings lost on Power Cycle" issue.

Re: Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 - Update: 24 96k Recording in A

Hi peteT, From what I see in the notes lots of testing has occurred to try and sort when or why this mysteriously stopped working. I can say that all the other units aside from the 18i20 are running fine at 96k on iOS. It looks like our Development Team is not yet sure if this is due to an issue wit...

Re: Focusrite Pro 40 for Auria

Hi Ed,

Unfortunately there is no way to use a Firewire Interface with an iPad. The iPad cannot accept a Firewire connection.

You will need to look into a USB Class Compliant Interface. Focusrite makes a range of these called the Scarlett series.

Best regards.

Re: Output matrix doesn't work when slave external sync

Hi Koji, Can you tell me a bit more about your setup? What other external device are you syncing to? Have you saved the MixControl settings with the Sync already Locked? You need to save the Sync Source SPDIF with a LOCK for it to take, otherwise upon disconnecting from USB it will go back to Intern...

Re: Spdif workaround for unsupported interfaces?

You can certainly set the Scarlett to sync to the SPDIF coming to it from an external unit while connected to the iPad. You need to make sure that when you set up the Scarlett in MixControl on your computer you have Sync Source set to SPDIF and are getting a Lock. Once you Save that to Hardware it s...

Re: How to keep FocusRite 18i8 channels inst

Hi Everyone, Our Development Team is looking into why this issue is happening. It seems to relate to filling up the memory on the unit. However we have a work around for you to get this running for you now. First connect the unit to your computer. Create your desired setup. In MixControl hit File > ...

Re: Focusrite Pro 40 MacBook Pro 2013

Hi guys!

The Rocketfish cable with adapter set never works.

I get calls about it all the time.

Just use a plain 6 pin to 9 pin cable.

If you did not get one let me know your mailing address and serial number of the unit and I will send you one.

Best Regards

Re: How to keep FocusRite 18i8 channels inst

Hi everyone, Just providing an update on this. I received an email on this case, I believe from one of the posters here. Based on further information provided in that email I believe this is possibly related to the firmware issue previously on the 8i6 I spoke about above, though I cannot be sure yet...

Re: Confused with Auria and Scarlett 6i6 setup

Hi Tomatic, Here is how you should route this in MixControl. In Mix 1 Tab you should be able to see the incoming Signal from both your Microphone, Input 1, and your Mac's Skype Output through the Griffin, Input 4. Thus Mix 1 is the Final Mix that you want going to your headphones and Tascam. (Please...

Re: Made for iPad from Focusrite

Hi richardyot, how does the monitoring work on this if there is no mix knob? With direct monitoring how do you control the playback level of the DAW vs the live vocal or instrument? With the Direct Monitor on you are hearing the live Gain of the Mic Pre or Line/Inst in. Set your headphone level to t...

Re: How to keep FocusRite 18i8 channels inst

Hi everyone, The "Save to Hardware" feature in MixControl was never broken. There was firmware issue on the 8i6 specifically that caused the unit to loose it's saved settings when Power Cycled. http://auriaapp.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=21&t=10095&p=19693&hilit=save+to+hardware#...

Hi Dominic, I see you also posted in another thread which I just replied too, so apologies if this is double posting. Only these three lowest priced units do not have a volume selection on the Monitoring. While I understand your frustration with the hardware I can say that you will not see a more ex...

Re: Blue Snowball vs. Blue Yeti vs. Apogee Mic ?

All the MFi (Made For iOS) Focusrite interfaces have a direct monitor button, which gives you zero latency monitoring. However, it does not allow you to blend the amount of software return with the direct signal, meaning you have to adjust the software (DAW) master level in Auria (or whatever app y...

Re: Made for iPad from Focusrite

Hi Dominic, Apologies that you are unhappy with the Direct Monitor feature on this particular unit. You are fully able to do what you describe on most of our units, such as the 2i4 with a Direct Monitor Blend Knob, or any unit with our MixControl software, which has much much more advanced Monitorin...

Re: Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 issues

Hi BGR, This does sound more than an issue from the iPad Driver or Hardware. The green light in no way indicates the unit is not powered. For example using any of our Scarletts in Standalone Mode they will never have a USB light on, as there is no USB connected, but they pass audio and work as Line ...
