Focusrite Scarlett 6i6 Channel 3/4 Input Recording
Anyone here have a Scarlett 6i6 or maybe 8i6 and can help me out with a problem?
I have my DJM800 outputting to my Scarlett 6i6’s channel 3/4 line inputs. I see the audio coming in using Focusrite’s Mixcontrol software, but I don’t see the audio when I’m trying to record the audio in Audacity. Any suggestions?
I have no issues when I try to use channel 1/2 on the front panel. I imagine there is some routing problem, but I can’t figure out how to get it to record channel 3/4 without using Ableton.
When you’re trying to record the audio in Audacity, what options does Audacity offers?
You simultaneously outputing audio into DJM800 via line 1/2 & 3/4? What software? You’re on Mac or Win? Have you checked if it’s even possible for two different softwares to use the same soundinterface? I know Audacity can’t record USB channels via ASIO drivers, maybe this is something similar?
Dammit slverdragon, you’ve got 2000 posts and you still post a thread with almost zero information… 
What do you mean no information… I’m pretty specific about it 
It’s going straight from my rec out on my DJM800 to the inputs on the Focusrite to my PC via USB. As I said, my software is Audacity. And yes it’s possible for multiple software programs to access a soundcard when you remove exclusive control in Windows settings. Windows & Mac I’m pretty sure makes no difference, but I am using Windows.
I know Audacity has limited ASIO capabilities, but I should be able to make it record from channel 3/4 and not 1/2. I have no interest in rebuilding Audacity with ASIO4ALL since it’s simply not worth the time.
Anyways: solution here if people look up this post in the future:
You can build the ASIO capabilities using the above link. Otherwise, you’re SOL since Windows is by default recording from 1/2, and you cannot select which channels to record using Focusrite software.
