Focusrite Software 4i4

I'm having an issue with Adobe Audition recognizing a 3rd and 4th channel. I'm using the Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 usb audio interface on a Windows laptop. I record a podcast and have no issues recording 2 microphones but Audition doesn't appear to have an option for me to add 3rd and 4th channels so I can have multiple guests.
Next, create your multitrack session. In the editing box at the left end of each track, select the drop down menu in the Input box--that's the one marked with the right-facing arrow. Select Mono from the menu you get then you should be able to pick your Focusrite Channel 1 in Track 1.
i have just purchased the 3rd gen 18i20 runing into adobe adution can only see two channels as your chat suggests, but there is no mention of asio in either windows 10 config or 18i20 control panel or even a download on the focusrite support, what am i looking for please ?
Get the latest driver from here: scarlett-3rd-gen/scarlett-18i20-3rd-gen and go to Audition's hardware settings page and select ASIO from the available device classes. ASIO doesn't exist as far as Windows is concerned, as it effectively bypasses most of it!
So I followed this but it still doesn't seem to be picking up my actual audio. It picks up the Focusrite but not the audio itself even though I can hear it through the mixer. My thought is that I am doing something wrong on the input side. In the Focusrite Controller The 3 mics I am using come up as analogue 1, 2, and 3 but when I go into Audition it has way more input options but somehow none of them seem to work. Any help would be appreciated
When connecting my iPad air2 to the focusrite itrack dock ( music recording interface) I am experiencing interferance noise, the weird thing is though is that my wife's ipad air2 does not cause this noise. The only potential difference between the iPads is the apps installed, so I've made sure no apps are running on mine but the issue still remains. I have also taken my iPad to the music shop and tried a 2nd dock and my iPad affected that one as well, Am I missing anything Obvious?
I had the same issue, no sound, what I did is reset i iPad hod the home button and power button at the same time, until iPad turns offs and restarts while still holding buttons, and while in the focusrite itrack dock, the power off the track and turn back on, I also disabled background refresh and put in airplane mode, all is well and working.
I have tried various alternatives and still the noise persists. I have noticed that the noise doesn't show up until the ipad is fully charged. It sounds like there is just too much electricity flowing around once the charging process is complete. My house electrics are pretty old and it has a lot of electrical devices plugged in which can cause noise and interference with other items. I am still looking for a solution to this, please let me know if you've had any luck your end? Very kind regards ?
I am having the same problem with an iPad Mini 2. As long as the iPad is not fully charged, there is no interference. But when it is 100% charged, there is a screeching noise coming from within the iTrack Dock. The noise is also audible in recordings and the analog outputs. When I change the brightness of the screen, the noise also changes but it never disappears. I have tried a different power supply. No luck.
I have this problem when using Novation launchpad app. Spent 3 hrs with Novation techies on chat no solution. They suspect faulty dock if not ipad. I am using ipad air 2. But some trick which might work for you
I was having the crackling and popping issue many here have described when trying to record in GarageBand in the iPad using the iTrack Dock. I resolved this issue by disabling the "background app refresh" option in the iPad's settings. I discovered this solution by chance. I got curious and wondered what would happen if I put my iPhone 6 on the iTrack Dock, and I was surprised to find that I was able to record in the iPhone version of GarageBand flawlessly using the iTrack. In fact, I had multiple tracks of the Guitar Amp going along with the drum machine and while enabling various effects and switching from Track to Perform view, etc. I could not throw the iTrack off it's game! I noticed that the "background app refresh" setting was disabled on my phone so I figured I'd try making that change on the iPad, and boom -- issue solved. I really hope this helps others. Don't return your iTrack -- it is a rad piece of gear once you make this tweak to your settings. rock on
