Scarlett OctoPre with audio interface  

 

– SMUX-II and SMUX-IV modes

Clock set to Internal via Focusrite Control

Clarett 8PreX

Scarlett OctoPre

SYNC set to WORD CLOCK

from the front panel

Optical TOSLINK

Coaxial (BNC)

This  example  shows  a  similar  setup  to  Example  2,  but  using  a  Focusrite  Clarett  8PreX  allows 

operation at a sample rate of 96 kHz (“SMUX-II” mode). Both units must be set to 96 kHz; two optical 

cables are used, carrying four channels of audio each. The Clarett 8PreX is the sync master.

This setup is also applicable with 192 kHz sample rate (“SMUX-IV” mode); each optical cable will 

then carry two channels of audio.

Scarlett OctoPre with analogue mixing desk

Scarlett OctoPre 

ANALOGUE MIXING DESK

This setup uses the Scarlett OctoPre’s mic pre-amplifiers to provide a high quality “front end” for an 

analogue mixing desk. Use a pre-made loom to connect the OctoPre’s LINE OUTPUTS socket to eight 

line inputs on the mixing desk; this will need eight ¼” TRS jacks on one end and eight connectors 

appropriate to the desk’s line inputs on the other. If the desk’s line inputs are unbalanced, a loom 

with TS jacks at the OctoPre end will be suitable.

This setup would also be appropriate to use the OctoPre as an input stage with any type of 8-channel 

analogue device.
