Help with basic Setup of Scarlett 18i20

[Max Peterson]

Anyone have a link to a basic how to setup process for the Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 for Qlab.  I am sure I'm just making a simple mistake, but I am having some issues getting it work.  Thanks.

I opened up my 18i20 with glee - plugged it in and had nothing, stared at it for hours and hours until I finally worked it out.

You need to install the software that comes with it (or from Focusrite's website) it's called something like MixControl - and you need to choose 'DAW 1, 2, 3, 4' for each of the outputs. That may not make much sense but have a try and I'll post some screen shots later if you still can't do it.

Basically MixControl is setup for sending inputs to outputs rather than audio from QLab/ProTools/anything else - so you need to make that change before getting QLab to play ball.

Let me know how you get on.
