OTOH, I could be completely wrong about all this.

Started Audition CC 2018 and changed the audio hardware preferences to Device Class: ASIO and selected the Focusrite as the device. Plugged in Focusrite, downloaded ASIO drivers from their website and restarted computer. Hoping for a way to introduce a different output device. Then restart your computer, install the Focusrite drivers ensuring the interface itself is not plugged in to the computer, then connect the interface and, hopefully, Windows will now install the correct drivers and your interface will work. Focusrite Scarlett Solo USB audio interface (1st gen). ASIO driver called Focusrite USB Audio shows 11ms and seems correct, recording bars react snappily, but the only outputs I can pick are the L/R outputs on the Scarlett backside, which sound bad when monitoring (recordings are still great) and cant be routed for my needs. I know that the standard advice for the 'order of downloading/installing/connecting' these type of devices is: download and install the drivers before connecting the interface, since Windows is likely to automatically install generic USB drivers which, in the case of such relatively specialised hardware as an audio interface, may well be completely inappropriate.Ĭould that be the cause of the problem here? If so, I think you may well need to uninstall both the ASIO and default drivers (the latter should be possible via Device Manager, Uninstall Driver, the former will, hopefully include an uninstaller). Re: pro tools could not initialize the focusrite usb asio Some of this could be caused by having the focusrite disabled in Windows Sound Properties. I notice you say you ' Plugged in Focusrite, downloaded ASIO drivers from their website and restarted computer'.
