Its mostly security updates relavant for general use. Especially in the OS, which rarely makes any audio centric improvements. Incremental upgrades are asking for problems. The software subscription model is awful imho, and the exact opposite of what audio engineer's need, which is a set and forget system. Ive incorporated a basic laptop as a buffer for software updates so i can evaluate them before updating the main system. This is infuriating on one hand since its just code, on the other hand if your software is backed up and organized, its good that hardware will run it for a long while, at least up to this point. Most of the issues are on the software side, not the actual computer hardware. My power supplies were around 100 bucks, and have a 10 year warranty, my Ram, lifetime warranty.Īgain i hate the obsolescence thing, but given its our world right now, we really have to be more responsible as equipment owners to backup our data, and dilligently save OS install versions, and especially drivers, so we can keep legacy systems running. So a computer system can last nearly 2 decades. There's still a lot of computer systems running Windows xp in the buisness world. I think they can do a better job with legacy support, but the update is optional for w10 pro (generally speaking). Its important to note tho that this was the result of an OS update. it reminds me of the definition of insanity.

I'd try another cable first, and if that doesn't solve it, borrow another mic from someone, one that you know for sure works, and try it.ĭon't change more than one quotient at a time.

Have you visited the Focusrite website and checked to see that the drivers you have installed are the most current? have you made sure that the phantom power/48v switch on the Scarlett is on? The 2035 is a condenser mic, and requires phantom power to work. You can easily split a stereo track into two separate mono tracks after recording.ĭonnyThompson, post: 446320, member: 46114 wrote: Assuming you know this already, but I'll mention it anyway. If you have a guitar or other instrument also plugged in, it will be in the lower (right) track. If you simply hit the red record button and a stereo track appears, then the microphone input will be in the upper (left) track. You should ideally be opening a mono channel for the microphone input and not stereo. This specifically should not be a completely flat line. If the recording device looks OK, what do you get when you actually record a short section? If you expand the recorded Audacity display vertically almost as far as it will go, you should be able to see a thin band of noise around the zero level. I've never used a Scarlett with Audacity, so I cannot predict the exact wording that will come up, but the point is that it should not be the default computer sound card. The bottom option is the Recording input, and it should explicitly say it's going to take data from the Focusrite Scarlett. What input device does Audacity say it is taking its data from? To check this, go to the Edit -> Preferences pane in Audacity and then the Devices panel. I have a few pointers about your use of Audacity. Is your Scarlett a 1st Generation or 2nd Generation? In addition to all the things Donny has mentioned, check that you are using an XLR-XLR cable for the microphone and it is plugged into the 3-pin XLR connector (leftmost connector on the Scarlett front panel).
