Thanks for the video. Very useful. I have the Scarlett 18i8 and this tutorial has been super helpful in setting up the ADAT side of things in Reaper (my DAW of choice rn)
Great and helpful video! I'll try to install my Focusrite 18i20 and my OctoPre tomorrow for future drum recording using multichannel. Until now I recorded just Stereo from my Behringer X2442 USB Mixer. Thanks to your video I know everything what I've to do tomorrow. Keep up your great work🤘🤘🤘Merry Christmas🎄
Your explanation was very clear and helpful in improving my understanding of ADAT connections. I did notice something that I'm uncertain about, though. When setting up my Scarlett 18i20 and Clarett Octo Pre in Pro Tools, instead of displaying SPDIF or ADAT 13 in the inputs, it simply shows as digital 1, 2, 3, 4, etc. Upon exploring the Focusrite Control panel, I found that selecting DUAL ADAT in the Digital I/O mode allows me to configure inputs 11 and 12 (or digital 1, 2 in my case) as well. While this seems straightforward for me, I'm unsure if it's correct or if it might cause any issues. For my setup, connecting input 1 on the Octo Pre results in Pro Tools showing it as DIGITAL 1. However, switching the Digital I/O mode to SPDIF optical forces me to use input 13 (or DIGITAL 3). I conducted a mic check using both setups, and the recordings sounded identical. Could you please clarify if there's any significant difference between the two configurations? Thank you!
you are very welcome my friend, I was stuck for a while too, therefore I wanted to make it easy for other who stumble on my video. Please do subscribe, good luck.
Really good stuff! I was wondering how I would hook up an external compressor to the Scarlet18i20 if you have any insight on that. Keep up the good work!
Great video and great explanations. Does anyone use FL Studio? My audio inputs still only show 8 inputs, 2 loops, and 10 digital which is still only seeing my Scarlett 18i20. I can't for the life of me figure out how to see the 8 additional ADAT inputs? Both 18i and Octo are set to 48K, Octo is set to "Internal" and 18i set to ADAT.
@@dragonbornthuum4278 I am happy that you found the video helpful, having said that, I am afraid I have no experience with FL studio , sorry can’t help. But do a lil research, which I am sure you are already and you should be able to crack it. Good luck and plz consider subscribing
@@aqeeljohn-johnnyb3433 Well I feel stupid! Turns out there never was a problem and the digital channels which are normally the 1/4" plugs on the back of the 18i actually become the XLR inputs for the OctoPre. Digital 3 through 10 have now become the 8 inputs from the OctoPre! I was expecting the names of the channels to change to resemble more like "Input" or "ADAT" instead of remaining "Digital". Anyway, I'm up and running with 16 inputs available!!
Great video and explanation. How would you do it the other way round? 18i20 - octopre? Still haven't downloaded a DAW..what are you using? Also,if i go out of OctPre into my 18i20 via ADAT as described in your vid,theres 2 ADAT ports on octPre..which one do you go out of? Can i just use a world clock BNC cable instead? Sorry for all the questions
I use Logic Pro X my friend, as far as the other way around goes, I haven't done the set up for the other way around, but I know for a fact that you will need "World Clock Cable" that will take out from 18i20 "IN" to the Octapre. DO give it a shot. Good luck.
Its always a good idea to match them, having said that, you can try keeping a diff sample rate. You can set the sample rate for 18i20 in software and Octpre on the hardware. Thank you for your comment, please consider subscribing. Thank you.
Is there any reason you used the clock from the octopre instead of the clock from the 18i20? Is the octopre clock more reliable..does this configuration take some of the burden off the 18i20?
thanks for watching the video and commenting, both clocks are equally reliable, to make 18i20 as main clock I would have needed 1 more ADAT cable; if you bring another cable the routing and setting within the software will be slightly different, that is all there is.
Hi Buddy! That's a nice explain video. I have a quick question about it. Does is work with the output setting? Let say I want more than 12 outputs from both of them.
hey buddy thanks for your question, this is something that I never needed to do, I am afraid I do not have an answer for that, but I can tell you will have to adapt setting in the focusrite software and you might be able to attain what you are looking for. Good luck.
Thank you and I am glad you found it helpful. If I understand your question right, do you mean is there any advantage of using OctoPre as main? We can have 18i20 as brain , the only did is that we will have to use two adat cables, and the routing might be a little different
Thanks man, but How about all outputs? If you want to use both 18i20 and Octorpre out for sending audio to outboards? And the samplerate, when should you use higher than 44.1?
Hey pal, if you got your question right here is my reply: I have never used my interfaces for live setup where I had to send the the outputs to the outboard, all I can tell off the top of my head is that there are 8 outs at the back of both the units and those, when aligned with Focusright Control, can easily send the outs to the outboard. As far as hrtz go, I would keep it at 44.1.
So if im using the octopre in Ableton will i need to worry about the inputs being preassigned or will Ableton just recognize them as normal inputs? If not do you think you would know how to reassign them through Ableton?
Thanks for your comment, Abelton being an industry standard DAW, I would assume that it would automatically recognize the inputs. I have never tired the unit with Ableton, so you will have to try it to find it. Good luck.
Thanks and I am glad it helped out. For the question you have asked, do you mean to ask if I connect monitors with 18i20 or Octopre? if that is the question, yes, my monitors are connected in output 1 & 2 of 18i20. Good luck, and please do subscribe, thank you.
New sub!!! I’m enquiring buying these units for my hardware keyboards without having to buy a patch bay!!! And so my wife can stop saying that I’m not using all my boards!!! Side note!!!😂😂😂 but my question I saw few clips on how to hook other interfaces with this device!!! I have the Appolo Twin and LPX & AL as my DAW of choice!!!

Hey buddy, good luck getting wife to saying stop to the use of boards, or anything for that mater ;) As far as connecting the Octopre with another unit, I have no experience doing that, but I am sure that the unit would be compatible with other units as well. You will have to do some research. good luck.
@@aqeeljohn-johnnyb3433 the 2nd ADATs should be for 8x channels at 96hz or higher. The missing aspect is how to setup a 3rd interface. After setting up the audio in each mixer, looks like each needs to then be plugging so the interfaces you want to go into Standalone mode...switch over and clock from the correct source.
What about if you turn off the octopre as a slave device but with adat set as source clock. Can you still use the 18i20 and record part time with the octopre, i dont need all 16 all the time and dont want to burn the electric bill.😂 i’m actually trying to the same but with two 18i20s
From what I understand, using 2 ADAT will not give you anything extra, and there isn't even a need if you do the set up that I have done, but if you would make your interface the brain, then you might have to use 2 ADAT cables.
Thank you for your comment my friend, I haven't yet had a need to use the outputs on Octopre., so can't say much about it. Why are you having to use the outputs of Octopre, what are you trying to achieve here?

@@aqeeljohn-johnnyb3433 I'm using DAW as a multitrack only, with analog mixer to actually mix. So I need output for each input. I was pretty sure that it has adat in and out, as it have 2 sockets. But it turned out that it's for higher sample rate input only.
@ I like how you are trying to use the analog mixed to do hands on real time mixing, and I can see why you would need O/P to come into the analog mixer, try routing the outputs from octopre and 18i20 via Focusrite Control; you will have to do some investigative work, but Focusrite Control would be a good starting point.
