    Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 (2nd Gen) USB Audio Interface with Pro Tools | First

    • While the audio quality was solid and I really like the hardware, the drivers constantly froze FL Studio and bluescreened my computer
    • So the drivers are a mess (I have the latest focusrite driver installed) and I can only hear everything out of one ear (when through my PC I hear both).
    • The ASIO drivers don't work properly
    • Th driver that their intro video instructed me to download didn't work with my Windows 7 system
    • you want sanity, go my route with the iRig or get the Steinberg and Behringer devices that get good reviews and BETTER drivers.
    • USB audio devices work natively in Windows and OSX without proprietary drivers or audio line spikes
    • Proprietary drivers that do not allow any software to change the sample rate
    • Focusrite's driver for this hardware unit was not digitally signed---so I had to go download Windows patches so that the computer would accept a sketchy unsigned driver.
    • I love this thing in and of itself, but if it's made unusable by bad drivers, why waste your money
    • My laptop installed the driver with no problems and everything works fine
    • I waited until MAYBE new improved drivers came out (which did).
    • The drivers are terrible - plugging this thing into any USB port on my machine will either freeze the machine, or disable other USB devices on the same bridge (e.g. keyboard and mouse just stop working)
    • Works out of the box on my Win, Mac and Linux boxes as simple plug and play (did download Win drivers as in the instructions though)
    • After all, without good drivers, the device becomes an expensive brick!
    • The drivers have some serious stability issues on windows
