Focusrite support- Good work

Because I am both old skool and broke, this is used in Win 7 Ultimate 64 bit on an i3-4130 cpu PC, offline and dedicated solely to music production. I could use more RAM, but no issues as yet.
I am primarily using it with StudioOne Prime (3), but have several other music production programs that are all playing nice with the 2i4, so far. ;)

All loops and plugins, both included with purchased bundles or downloaded separately, are working fine so far with no worries at all, and live recording latency is not a problem.



edit- Also, I apparently owe you a video... :) any suggestions?
(the unboxing is past, my apologies...)
New track? Remix of one of my terrible tracks of history? Watching me digitize vinyl? (I have a pretty nice turntable...) :D

i still use windows 8.1 because i'm used to it, and i'm not ready to move to win10, which i used and wasn't crazy about.

i'd like to see you hook it up to your computer, and watch your computer or the focusrite while you record a brief something. a music sample and a speaking sample using your computer directly or failing that your phone and the same sample via the focusrite. a remix would be very nice.

Okay :)

I'll see what I can do.
You'd be my first video. :D

I do have some tracks to remix, as the tracks I have do need some of that... ;)

Probably more likely to record something and build, etc.

Will do asap, probably this weekend.

Okay.... this is not a video. :D My apologies.
I caught a surprise day off from the day gig, got the radio stuff done early, and banged this out. It is the epitome of quick and dirty, and is absolutely nothing fancy, at every point. From "I should" to "I did" took approx. 3 hours, total, because I am slow. But, no fault of the interface or DAW.

This was done to assess headroom at record and at mix, to play with the new loops that came with the new interface, and be silly and blow off some steam (stressful days lately) :) . Live tracks, loops, and edited loops (all content included with the interface).

The interface is a performer imo, it's clean and efficient, sounds great, has gobs of headroom (compared to the Gen 1) easily plays well with my "studio" stuff, and the included loops and software all seem to work well. I'm sold.

@pcake A video of some kind is still forthcoming, once I figure out all the how. ;)
