Hi,Ableton

Scarlett 2i4 Review

Jul 22, 2019  Dear slutz, I quite literally just got the Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 for Christmas and have been trying to set it up but with no avail. I installed the drivers and everything important like that, but when I go into Cubase or Ableton (don't have any other DAWs) and try to playback a previous recording or record something else and try to play it back I can't hear any sound! No sound whatsoever is. 3 OVERVIEW Introduction Thank.you.for.purchasing.this.Second.Generation.Scarlett.2i4,.one.of.the.family.of.Focusrite.


I have just purchased a Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 for use with Ableton.
When i got it home i connected my monitors up and connected the usb to my macbook, span up ableton and It all worked perfectly through my monitors etc. I Tried it with my bass guitar and was able to record it in fine etc.

One of the things i wanted to do was to be able to record DJ mixes so i connected up my DJ mixer via a dual rca to 6.3mm jack cable going from the mixers record outputs into the fist input on the 2i4. Selected Line on the toggele switch and started a CD playing from my CDJ. However the sound was really distant like it wasn't plugged in properly with no bass. i double checked all connections, made sure i had line selected, not instrument, checked the gain etc and tried moving to input 2 on the 2i4 but got the same issue. At this point i thought it was the lead so ordered a new gold plated dual rca to large jack lead from Amazon. This came last night, i tried it and same thing. I tried recording into ableton but on playback the sound is still thin and tinny. I tried toggling and switching all buttons on the 2i4 but could not get the sound to sound right. Can anybody suggest what i might be doing wrong, or could it be that my 2i4 is faulty? I thought it may be the combi xrl/jack inputs on the 2i4 at fault but plugging my bass in via a jack cable is totally fine and the sound is full and bassy as you would expect. Just to add i know the mixer and recording from the mixer work absoultely fine as i can record to my desktop pc absolutely fine using the same cables into ableton.
