Connecting your Scarlett 6i6
IMPORTANT: Before you connect your Scarlett 6i6 to your computer,
please complete the software installation according to the
instructions on page 8. This will ensure that the hardware uses the
correct drivers, and will prevent unexpected behaviour.
Power
Your Scarlett 6i6 should be powered from an external 12 V DC, 1 A mains adaptor. A suitable adaptor
is supplied with the unit.
IMPORTANT: We very strongly recommend that you only use the supplied mains adaptor. Failure to
use this adaptor is likely to permanently damage the unit and will also invalidate your warranty.
USB
Your Scarlett 6i6 has a single USB 2.0 port (on the rear panel). Once the software installation is
complete, simply connect it to your computer using the USB cable provided. (Note that Scarlett 6i6 is
a USB 2.0 device, and thus the USB connection requires a USB 2.0-compliant port on your computer.
It will not operate correctly with USB 1.0/1.1 ports.)
Mac OS only:
Your OS should automatically switch the computer’s default audio outputs to be the USB port to
which the Scarlett 6i6 is connected. To verify this, go to
System Preferences > Sound, and ensure
that the input and output are set to Scarlett 6i6. For more detailed setup options on a Mac, open
Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup.
Windows only:
Your OS should automatically switch the computer’s default audio outputs to be the USB port to
which the Scarlett 6i6 is connected. To verify this:
On Windows 7 - go to:
Start > Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Sound > Manage
Audio Devices and ensure that Default Playback and Recording are set to Focusrite 2.0
Driver.
on Windows 8, navigate to Control Panel and then select Hardware and Sound > Sound >
Manage Audio Devices and ensure that Default Playback and Recording are set to Focusrite
2.0 Driver.
