Example of Usage
The Scarlett 6i6 is an excellent choice for several different recording and monitoring applications.
Some typical configurations are shown below.
Connecting microphones and instruments
Digital FX device
Amplifier
This setup illustrates a configuration for recording two singers and a piano with DAW software on
Mac or PC. In this case, Inputs 1 and 2 are used for the two vocalists, while Inputs 3 and 4 receive the
stereo output of the electric piano. These sources will all be recorded on separate tracks of the DAW.
During recording, the playback from the DAW can be monitored on one of two pairs of loudspeakers,
and Scarlett MixControl will provide each vocalist with their own headphone mix of themselves, the
other singer, the piano, plus any other DAW tracks that may have already been recorded.
The front panel input sockets are XLR Combo type, which accept either an XLR male connector (you
will probably have one on the end of your microphone cable) or a ¼” (6.35 mm) jack plug. Note the
Scarlett 6i6 has no “Mic/line” switch – the Focusrite preamplifier stage is automatically configured
for a microphone when you plug an XLR into the input, and for a line or instrument when you connect
a jack plug. Select INST in Scarlett MixControl (in the Input Settings panel below the Mixer section) if
you are connecting a musical instrument (like a guitar) via an ordinary 2-pole guitar jack, or to LINE
if you are connecting a line level source such as the balanced output of an external audio mixer via a
3-pole (TRS) jack. Note the Combo connector accepts both types of jack plug.
