14 Tips To Get Started With The Focusrite Scarlett Solo 3rd gen

[@AudioTechTV]

Next check out a song I made using only the Scarlett Solo & included software by clicking here kzbin.info/www/bejne/an-5maqufshlqKc

[@AudioTechTV]

If you watched a video about a piece of hardware looking for a piece of software I can see how it would be confusing. You can play “electric” music in any piece of software. If you’re on windows it has windows media player along with other players. If you are wanting to record there are a bunch of different programs that you can use not just one. These programs are often referred to as DAWs or digital audio workstations. The best one for you all depends on you. Try a few out and see what you like best. Here’s a video with some free DAWs that might help you decide kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5-ZqYind7yGm5I

[@AudioTechTV]

@nature vs nurture if you want free, Amplitube Custom Shop can be great as it comes with a lot of stuff in the free version. If you want paid programs then check out the full version of Amplitube or Bias FX2. Also Tonex is decent and Native Instruments Guitar Rig. Here’s a video with 10 free amp sim plugins. Not all work in standalone mode though. Some will require you to use a DAW to load them in. kzbin.info/www/bejne/pILboZloma6VmbM

[@OTCRock4one]

Question: I have the Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen. I also have professional studio speakers connected to my iMac. I was told that when recording to use headphones but for mixing to use the external studio speakers. So, when I record, should I disconnect the studio speakers so I (only) hear audio from the headset?

[@AudioTechTV]

@@OTCRock4one if you are recording anything with a microphone then yes. If you’re recording a guitar or any other instrument that is directly connected to the interface then you won’t need to. The lack of a separate headphone control is one of the only negatives about this interface.

[@jgvtc559]

​​@@AudioTechTVro I got a old 6i6 1st gen I'm trying to use not really to record but as a interface for gaming I can't get game or music audio from apps in my headphones from either of the 2 Jack's I can hear the mic through one of em but I don't want to monitor the mic I want to use this as my sound card basically Any help greatly appreciated

[@MsAdorableAdora1]

Exactly why I was here.Cant get my microphone...did it once but dnt know how I did it.

[@grover-]

As you skipped a step, here's one. Don't install the official Focusrite drivers! Use the Windows ones. If you use the Focusrite drivers you will end up with very low volume levels on your mic input. The Windows drivers solves this. You will however not have an official ASIO driver for your DAW, but you can at least decide. Focusrite will not fix this. The latest drivers from Focusrite still does not fix the issue.

Could you please help me? I setup my focusrite and put my condenser microphone in and it works, but it doesnt support my headphones and i have to plug them somewhere else, but in my daw if i use my focusrite usb asio i cant hear anything, so now im stuck, i dont know how to fix this issue in FL. Got any advice?

[@AudioTechTV]

If it’s because your headphones have an 1/8” connector then you can get a 1/4” adapter and connect your headphones that way. This would be the most ideal. Another option would be to get the free ASIO4All driver and that lets you route audio. So you can use the Focusrite as the input device and then use your onboard soundcard as the output or whatever output device you want. This is not ideal as it will introduce latency but it’s a work around.

[@Gottacacheemalll]

Did it work out for you?

[@necrisro]

I got it and I can say it's a sweet little piece of soundkit. However I do have to use APO equalizer with it as it is so flat it's a bit too "cold" sounding. I use this config to make it a bit warmer on both outputs (I use Sennheiser 660s and Edifier speakers) and it's now in media consumption too if you want to use it as an all-rounder for your Windows PC. It responds insanely well to EQ as well. GraphicEQ: 20 0; 25 0; 31.5 0; 40 0; 50 0; 63 0; 80 0; 100 1; 125 1; 160 1; 200 1; 250 1; 315 0; 400 0; 500 0; 630 0; 800 0; 1000 0; 1250 0; 1600 0; 2000 0; 2500 0; 3000 0; 4000 -1; 5000 -1; 6000 -1; 7000 0; 10000 0; 12500 0; 16000 0; 20000 0

What is your recommendation for a midi keyboard that will work seamlessly with cakewalk? thanks Mate!!

[@reezy78]

Good information Zane. I just recently received my 3rd Gen and am using the ProAR condneser microphone. My voice is low, really low and I have turn the gain nearly all the way up. Your video aided me with obtaining levels and I'm going to do some recording to find the right sweet spot for me. I was so excited when I received it that I didn't register it until today after watching your video. The software packages Focusrite offers is definitely a great bonus to be taken advantage of. I'll definitely keep in mind about turning off the phantom power. I generally eject the Scarlett from y laptop before shutting everything down completely. Take it easy and I wish you much success on your channel!

[@dennisvice3162]

Hi! Did you solve the issue with the low sound? Also, is the cable the comes default good or did you change it? I could nit understand tip 14 with the Mic Cable.

[@AudioTechTV]

@dennisvice3162 if you’re talking about the default USB cable you should definitely use that one. If you’re talking about the mic cable that comes with the Studio bundle, yes it’s a great little mic cable. No problem with it. Tip 14. Use a proper xlr mic cable. They have xlr connections at both ends. Don’t use an xlr to 1/4” trs cable. They have xlr at one end and trs at the other. If you use that second type of cable your mic won’t sound good or possibly won’t give you sound at all.

[@ivansukin721]

Unfortunately, the Windows ASIO drivers are completely broken on modern systems since they produce a very low-volume sound from the mic. There are a lot of guides throughout the Internet that suggest to completely remove those drivers and use the default ones. It solves the volume problem, but you lose control of the interface and some sound quality too.

[@AudioTechTV]

Interesting. I have very modern systems and I only use the asio drivers. There is no low volume sound from the mic. I’m not sure how a driver would affect the mic as a driver doesn’t do anything to the hardware. I can’t imagine anyone that’s serious about recording suggesting to remove Asio drivers from their computer. Removing Asio4all yes but not a manufacturers Asio driver.

[@ivansukin721]

@@AudioTechTV the sound on the monitoring headphones is actually good and has the expected volume. The sound on PC at the same time is too low volume. I have Win11 and Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen. Why do you say that drivers doesn't do anything to the hardware? Drivers can actually control the hardware behaviour and somehow process the data they get from it.

[@0010Kev]

[@ronnieryanpc]

Here is my setup Mic: AT2040 Interface: Scarlett Solo Is this going to give me a mono mic signal?

[@AudioTechTV]

Each input is a single input (mono). So plug your mic into input 1 on the Solo and make sure you have your software set to record or stream to a mono track. If you record or stream to a stereo track then you could have issues with it coming out of one speaker only because when recording in stereo input 1 is left and input 2 is right. So it all comes down to how you setup your software.

[@TatianaBalashova]

[@jackedkerouac4414]

Good stuff. I wasn't sure what the Air button does. You have great taste in music by the way judging by the records on display

[@dawred3390]

Is there any chance to put some effects on the Monitor sound? Thanks for your help.

[@AudioTechTV]

If what you’re wanting to do is add effects to the main stereo output, you can easily add some effects plugins to the master track in your audio software and those effects will output to your monitors. If you want effects between the monitors and the audio interface so the effects aren’t actually in the audio output then you would need to use a hardware effect or connect the outputs to a mixer that has effects built in or hardware effects connected. So you would connect the monitor outputs from the interface to the hardware effect or mixer inputs and then output to your monitors from that. A mixer would be more ideal in this situation.

[@burmaunderground]

I'm unable to get my Scarlett to even work on my windows 10 (Dell) machine. The Focusrite software locks up and crashes my machine when I attempt to run it. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.

[@brookechapinrobbins]

thanks for this! do you know if it is possible to connect multiple mics to this interface? ie for interview-style podcasting

[@AudioTechTV]

It only has 1 mic preamp so it’s designed to handle 1 mic. You could get a mixer and connect multiple mics to the mixer, then connect that mixer to the Solo but you would need to record all the mics to just 1 track which isn’t ideal. You would be better off getting a 2i2 or an interface that has the number of mic preamps that you need built into it.

[@Sycaak]

Hello, my problem is when i put my headphones into the places where you showed i cant hear anything. I need to put them to the back... Is there something wrong in my system?

[@WALCZZZ]

6:39 I’ve been recording guitar by connecting the headphone out signal of my amp into both 1/4” inputs with a cable that splits. Do you have any suggestions for how to optimize the sound quality this way? Should I turn on the focusrite instrument setting? Thanks for the great video!

[@AudioTechTV]

If you are going headphone output of amp to the Focusrite then use the line setting. Instrument is for when you’re connecting your guitar directly to the interface. If your amp outputs in stereo then you can connect it to 2 inputs but if it’s just a regular mono guitar amp you only need one input. If your amp has a cabinet sim on the headphone output then you should be fine with the sound going in but if it doesn’t you may want to try using a cabinet sim effect on your guitar track.

[@SreekumarNair]

Thank you for the explanation. Is this device useful only while recording or does it help for live shows also.

[@AudioTechTV]

You can use it for live shows too. There are several ways to use it live. Connect instruments direct to a computer for amp sims and other sounds then output to pa. Use it to play backing tracks live. Play virtual instruments and output to a pa and whatever else you might want to do with it live.

The first one is a -10db pad. When enabled it will reduce the input by 10db which can be good for recording really loud sources. The second thing is a high pass filter when put into the position with the curved line it will roll off some of the low end frequencies. You’ll have to look at the info for that mic to see where it starts the roll off. When it’s in the straight line position that is the normal position with no filter.

Please tell me how to put my Xbox one through my scarlet solo so I can have audio through my monitors

[@AudioTechTV]

On the Xbox side you will need an adapter that can take the hdmi out from the Xbox and will output to either 1/8” line output or rca cables. Now The Solo isn’t the ideal interface for this type of use because it doesn’t have 2 line inputs but you could connect cables from the output of the hdmi to audio adapter to a cable that has 1/4” trs for the right side and that would go into the line input, then you will likely need a 1/4” to xlr adapter so you can plug the left side into input 1. Because one side will be taking the signal at mic level and the other at line level you will need to adjust the gain so the sides are kind of even. An interface with a spdif input would be ideal as you could go spdif output on the Xbox to spdif input on the interface. Or an interface with at least 2 line inputs would be great for this as you could go from the hdmi adapter to a line input on both the left and right side.
