i dont ever comment on videos but if there was one video on youtube i could say has genuinely helped me understand all of this it would be this one so thank you
This video is amazing! It is easy to follow. The narrator speaks slowly and enunciates the directions. Thank YOU so much for making this concise and truly helpful video.
Thank you for making these videos so easy to understand for those of us who are new to this and are just now learning and do not know the lingo! You are my favorite educator in this area.
This is the video I was looking for. Thank you so much 🙏 detailed step by step instructions because I am starting from no knowledge at all. Appreciated greatly 🙏
I know my equipment I searched for a vid so someone would understand. This was 100% direct simple and correct. Took over an hour and finally lol. Thanks for your video I saved it and I never do that.
Also - would LOVE to see you do a 'getting started with Reaper' as the web is full of older videos and the software has changed. but most importantly, you do such a killer job of explaining things, i think even a dummy like me could get to work with Reaper right away with your guidance. But we all have 'easy ideas' for other people to do, eh? ;)
That’s a great idea! The only thing that has kept me from doing it already is the vastness of what can be done in Reaper. What would you like to see demonstrated in a “getting started” video?
@@AudioUniversitywith my solo it’s letting me hear game audio but no one in discord. My mic is working for them. I have it set as my input n output. I’ve set reaper up. I’m not sure what’s going on
I am using an audio interface with two mics for my podcast. Can someone please help me with a query? I want to record two seperate audio files for both the mics, how can I do that?
can you do a video of full audio setup from mixers to amplifiers to speakers and audio interface for recording? Please show how all these are connected
I am requesting some guidance and hope I am taken the right route. This setup is for a small church to stream to UA-cam. We have a 16-channel analog sound board. My plan is to use the Focusrite Solo 4th generation to be the interface between the soundboard and a Win10 laptop using OBS. I am hopeful I can get some feedback on my plan. Your video is superb. You are masterful at explaining and providing the detail and explanation that so many others miss.
I could really use some help trying to complete my problem. I’m trying to equalize my audio for gaming. I have focusrite solo and an older focusrite 6i6. Rode nt1a mic and studio headphones. I have a MacBook and windows laptop. Playing with Xbox i plan on using 3.5mm controller output to split mic and game audio. What software would you use to adjust audio? (Hopefully free. lol) and I’m just assuming i would have to be able to keep mic and game audio separate? Thanks in advance
If I have an audio interface with a single 1/4 input. Can I connect a Synth with separate 1/4 left/right line level outputs if I use a cable with separate 1/4 left/right TS ends and 1 x 1/4 TRS end?
excellent video, clears almost everything. Although, for the Video conferencing part, is it possible to not use studio monitors and instead use an amp? If so, how will the set up look like?
Could you do a video on using the Scarlett 4i4 for reamping guitars while using studio monitors/headphones? (Kinda confused with the output routing) Say I want to connect the reamp box to line output 1 and line input 3 (since I'll be using headphones to direct monitor). Would it work out just fine?
Great idea for a video! Thanks. The signal flow would look like this: Focusrite Output > Reamp Box Input > Reamp Box Output > Guitar Amp Input > Guitar Amp Speaker > Microphone On Amp > Microphone Output > Focusrite Input In your DAW, you route the guitar DI signal out of the interface to the reamp box and into your guitar. You'll be setting up a new track for recording the microphone. Choose whichever inputs and outputs you want, just be sure to set up the correct I/O settings in your DAW.
@websparrow I figured it out!! So I have a lewitt ray microphone and it turns out clip guard was the cause of my issue. Despite everything coming through my computer wasn't picking up my mic which was super weird turned off clip guard and BOOM it worked!
You may have to go in preferences like he said in the video. The problem should be solved when you go to your settings. Make sure you have it on "built in output". Then you should hear it through the speakers. If you have it on USB and your midi keyboard don't supply sounds you will need to switch your audio settings.
Thanks, that is another great video. I've looked into the Radial EXTC already which would be perfect if it was also an interface or could send and receive audio to the DAW via USB. I am using an Apogee Duet as my main interface for guitar in and studio monitors out and have no spare inputs or outputs, therefore trying separately to find an interface that I can use as an outboard FX loop for my pedal shelf/rack - for routing to the DAW as an insert (ideally two channels so I can run pre and post amp pedals via a remote MIDI switcher). The closest thing I have found is the Boss IR-2 although it seems a waste to only use it as an FX loop and I don't know that I can disable both its amp and cab sims together. I might have to bite the bullet and get another primary interface with more IO as well as a reamp box as you suggest. Thanks again, great channel. @@AudioUniversity
Can you control the volume output for both the headphones (connected to front of interface) and speakers (connected to back of interface) independently? Or are they both controlled by only 1 knob the front?
great presentation.... but only up to the speakers connect part..... so where does the Arturia keylab mk2 connect to?.... it wud hav been a complete picture for the dumb beginner like me.... i still dont know.... my guess is from the mk2 usb C....connect to the laptop's 2nd usbA port..... ?
I want to record my vocal and karaoke together in scarlet solo audio interface. I want scarlet to record the karaoke sound directly by using input 2 to get sound from pc together with my vocal coming from input 1. People usually use guitar in input 2 but I want to use karaoke sound to use as input instead of guitar. Of course karaoke can be played in background and fed from input 2 using another mic but why not do it directly for better sound quality?
I was able to get sound from my PreSonus AudioboxUSB 96 to headphones, THANK YOU!! Does this work in Ableton also and how would i connect my interface to my Yamaha MG10XU to my PC to record vocals and instruments? Appreciate the great tutorial , yours was the only one I was able to follow and actually work with headphones...!! Now i need to "funnel" my mics>mixer>RC-1 loop pedal> to DAW to PC speakers. The settings in Ableton to make this happen are a little confusing due to my lack of experience. I wouldn't be opposed to a video call...?
Yes. Back in the day, I had an interface that couldn’t supply phantom power. In that case I used an external phantom power supply. Remember though: you only need phantom power for condenser mics and active dynamic mics.
What brought me here was to make sure my laptop worked with my 2i2 and my Presonus 5.25 monitors without low level hum from EMF or RF. If I understand you and others correctly, it is unbalanced cables that cause this? Thank you great video
The interface I use is the Native Instruments Komplete Audio 1, and I want to connect my gaming headset (I'll be switching to studio headphones soon). However, this doesn't work as intended. When I plug the 6.35mm jack into the headphone jack of the interface, I get sound, which seems great. But, my system stops receiving sound from the XLR line input until I disconnect the headphones. I've seen recommendations about "routing" the outputs and inputs correctly, but I'm unfamiliar with this term and unsure how to fix it. I hope someone in this great community can help me with this dilemma. Also, is it possible to turn a mono line input, into stereo by tweaking some settings?
I have laptop that support thunderbolt 4. Is focusrite thunderbolt asio better than regular focusrite usb asio if i use thunderbolt cable ? Will it give lower latency?
I remember seeing a video you guys did a while back where you used a DB meter and pink/white noise panned all the way left and right to adjust the monitor volumes separately but can't find that video...can anyone point me to it?
This video is super well-put together, but I'm wondering - do interfaces not usually have some way to output audio directly through the computer speakers when the DAW is open, i.e. are headphones/speakers necessary? I've been struggling for several hours with hearing my guitar through my computer speakers, and I wasn't sure if I literally can't do that, and I need to have headphones/speakers to plug in using the 1/4 inch or RCA cables or whatever
Just read your comment. I have just purchased a Scarlett Solo and when I run it through the PC (Bose) system, there is a delay. Did you manage to fix your issue and how? Any help appreciated.
Hi I hope this isn't a dumb question but I am having a conference and we have guest speakers that need to have audio output to PA speakers and also to a computer that will be live streaming will an audio interface be the way to do that?
Thanks 🙏 a million you’re dope!! Nice and simple and easy to understand with me having no previous experience with any of it but want to get started. I have maschine drum machine and software and Reasons it’s ten years old but I was told it doesn’t matter to still use.
QUESTION: with an audio interface, can I listen to the music I’m making if I plug my headphones into the headphone monitoring area of the interface? Or will I only hear the microphone that’s plugged into it?
Hey , I need help with my interface I’m having a weird Quantization Distortion Effect that every minute or two kicks in for like 2 seconds . My speakers are fine and my pc aswell . Is it my fault or is the interface broken ? Couldn’t find any infos about it online so I thought you could help me .
Hey iSoundpro, I answered this question on your other comment. The short answer is “yes”. You can select what you hear while recording by using the “input monitoring” switches for each track in your DAW.
If I hook the speakers to the audio interface, would I need to hookup the power cable on the speakers as well or am I getting power from the audio interface? Thanks
I thought I'd set the sound peaks just right, but in the end I didn't. The problem is that, on FL studio, I have no way of knowing whether "the peaks of [my] signal are about -18 to -12 dB" on the meter. I also realize that I've been given no way of adjusting the feedback delay when I installed my driver. Could someone help me here?
Cant find none of video that can answear my question. Does numbers of inputs and outputs mach? Means if i conect somethin to input No3 , the signal goes from out No3? Or this outputs are pairs for monitors?
Do you think an interface like this would be good to use as your main unit from PC to a powered Sub that has 2 passive speakers connected to that , my powered Sub and passive speakers are barely audible if its connected straight to my PC , do you think its that the pc does not recognize the signal or that the power amp in the Sub is blown? .. my audio speakers for PC now is a Z2300 logitech that plugs in to pc via an 1/8 jack , ive tried 1/8 jack cable to all connections on the Sub from PC with no luck , I just want better PC audio more powerful than the z2300 , should I be using an interface or some other unit between pc and Sub/speakers? thanks
im recording with my laptop camera using the volt2 for audio.....do i need to use ableton? im able to record both audio and video at the same time.....im not sure ifi need to use ableton....
Is there a proper way to disconnect your Scarlett 2i2 4th gen? Or is there something I should do before I disconnect? I heard if you have 48v or phantom power on and you disconnect it could mess up your unit, I heard it’s best to turn it off and then disconnect, is this true?
I’m trying to connect my AT2020 USB mic to a Scarlett solo third gen 2in 2out 24 bit audio interface. Is this possible? Because at the end of the mic I see only a USB A and but the interface requires a 3 pin XLR? help!
How to use speaker mic directly with loudspeaker without pc? I want to use it for singing. It works with pc but does not work directly with speakers? Any insight?
I have to ask.. can I connect a gauge cable into 1/4 headphones into my interface and run that into my speakers with a frayed connection? It should be okay right? Or do I have to buy 1/4 headphone cable and disconnect one end of the cable and use those wires to use the speakers?
This was great. However I am really at a loss to setup my system with my mxl condenser mic. I have a usb soundcard connected to an amplifier with speakers connected to the amp. Works great for everything. When I try to connect my M audio Fast Track to my mic I get no sound. Any help is appreciated.
Great video Audio University! One question, did you have to download ASIO in order to get clear sound out of the audio interface? When using MME Direct, I noticed the audio (guitar recording) was distorted badly. Only after downloading ASIO was I able to get clear audio out of the interface.
input level can be adjusted by Windows mixer (or recording device) when using MME to avoid clipping (overloading) ASIO has the advantage of bypassing Windows sampling rate conversion (fixed to PCM 16bit/48kHz)
Hi am hearing guitar single sound before I open my daw...this is leading to a chorus kinda of effect when I click on audio monitoring in daw....PLEASE HELP ME FIX THIS 😢😢

@@AudioUniversity Booth Junkie has an interesting (but old) instruction format you might check out on Reaper
Yes. You can use one speaker, but you’ll probably want headphones for recording so that the backing track isn’t recorded by the vocal microphone.
Yes. An interface, a Computer, a mic, and a pair of headphones is all you need!
True!

This was great. However I am really at a loss to setup my system with my mxl condenser mic. I have a usb soundcard connected to an amplifier with speakers connected to the amp. Works great for everything. When I try to connect my M audio Fast Track to my mic I get no sound. Any help is appreciated.
Did you engage phantom power?
perfect explaining ever ♥
Great video Audio University!
One question, did you have to download ASIO in order to get clear sound out of the audio interface?
When using MME Direct, I noticed the audio (guitar recording) was distorted badly. Only after downloading ASIO was I able to get clear audio out of the interface.
input level can be adjusted by Windows mixer (or recording device) when using MME to avoid clipping (overloading)
ASIO has the advantage of bypassing Windows sampling rate conversion (fixed to PCM 16bit/48kHz)

Would there be issues connecting headphones and monitors to the same focusrite?

I'm trying to hookup a Focusrite 2i2 to my new MacBook Pro using Reaper as DAW. I've changed settings on Reaper and MacBook to "Scarlet 2i2" but I can't get sound from microphone. Mic is working and changing levels on MacBook but nothing on Reaper. It's just not working. Any ideas? Thanks
