Control all your Application Audio, Microphones, Instruments and more Individually for recording, streaming, and even video calls using Loopback on your Scarlett 3rd gen audio interface.

This is the third video in my Focusrite Control series.

Create custom mixes for you audience whether you are a game streamer, performing music live, or doing an audition or presentation on a video conferencing platform.

Loopback will take your computer audio to the next level.

*** Note that the integrated loopback functions in Focusrite Control are only available on Scarlett 4i4, 8i6, 18i8, and 18i20 3rd gen as well as Clarett Thunderbolt interfaces only. (Clarett USB and Clarett Plus series do no have integrated loopback through Focusrite Control). The Scarlett 8i6 1st gen also supports loopback, however it is configured using Scarlett Mix Control instead of Focusrite Control.

** I will have another video coming soon that explains how to create loopback on interfaces not supporting loopback directly within Focusrite Control.

Do This First:

To get the most out of your recording or streaming space, I recommend sound treatment including acoustic absorption panels. This is the single biggest way to improve your audio before investing in other gear. You can make your own, or I highly recommend GIK Acoustics as they manufacture some of the best quality panels available at an excellent value.
