I have watched so many videos about this and yours is the only one that has helped me use 2 interfaces! Thanks!

Your video was straitforward ! I manages to set up 2 + 2 inputs from 2 different audio card on reaper in 5 min. (Plus : your set up with a standing-desk and 4 screens is way too cool) Thanks a lot !

great tutorial! i got it going right away! i can now have my drum tracks play through my monitors, and my guitar through my combo

This was a game changer for me. Appreciate your knowledge! The one thing I had to figure out for me was when I selected the interfaces, as you outlined at 4:35, I needed to expand these folders. I have an 8 channel and 2 channel interface. I needed to make sure all of the interfaces " audio in" were set correctly. Reason why, is for when I set up the corresponding inputs with track numbers, as outlined at 5:00, I'm able to have the needed options to do so. Before I changed this setting I didn't see the available inputs to set up. After making the adjustment, everything was easy.

Super useful, thanks man

It's a really useful tutorial! Thanks a lot! 😍👍

Thank you for this man!! .. you have open my eyes

Cool tuto!

very good information, thanks for sharing

Appreciate the video alot!

Thank you for this video!

Thanks for the information!

newer versions of asio4all have latency compensation in the advanced settings.

nice man I was having this problem when I want to have separate recording simultaneously with 2 audio interfaces. though i need a Y splitter for monitoring each interfaces. ✌🏼

Hey MAte, Can we use all the outputs (of both interfaces) without latency?

Is it also possible to have multiple outputs? so you can route a certain mixer track to one output and have it only play on that output? I am trying to use a talk box without using a synth by putting a vst in a mixer track, and routing it to only 1 output and into the talkbox to generate sound using a simple midi controller. that way I can hear the other music on the normal output and record the talkbox with only the synths sound entering the talkbox.

Very helpful... is there not a way to fix that latency? Or is asio4all the only fix?

Does anyone know how to sync an aggregate device so that the waveforms match up? I have them running under the same clock and the waveforms were slightly off even with the same instrument going into two outputs at the same settings... is it an imperfection in my preamp or I am doing something wrong?

I have an SSL 2. It has two I/o. Would this work with connecting hardware compressors etc to record and also to mix with? Great channel!

Hi are there any issues with connecting something like a zoom u44 to my main audio interface Scarlett 18i20 via its outs to record phone video audio as well maintaining usual USB connection to computer. Would the analog to digital conversion be done twice and possibly cause issues ? Thanks

So ... I think I need to get to the next level on this. I was dumb on simultaneous recording and delays. Seems like that could be automatically corrected for by the DAW or a pre-filter?

I am still blown away by this video.

I can only pick one device in the control panel, has anyone the same problem? I'm using scarlett 18i20 and a behringer xenxy mixer wich has a master output over usb

Thanks for saving my money :)

If someone plays session inside daw with two different interface like this..is there any problems in the overall output coming from two different the interface's master channels ? ....like if someone wants to run backing track and cue track at the same time...

I have a ZOOM R8 configured as an audio interface and an SSL 2 running through REAPER. Was able to get them both recognized by REAPER and can record on all channels. Haven't checked the latency yet. The problem is when recording with headphones. Can only hear the interface channels that the head phones are hooked to. Not good for simultaneous recording on all channels. Not sure how to get around this but it is a big issue. Was hoping to use both interfaces to record drums with 4 mics.

wow! I've always wonder what "aggregated audio device" meant. Now I know. Well done Thankyou!

Is it possible to make an interface mic pre and listen to that signal on another interface

So the thing Im trying to figure out right now is how to use my Antelope Orion 32+ with another interface as the main ADC/DAC/Clock. Basically what Im trying to figure out is how to use the Antelope just for the 32 Analog ins ans 32 Analog Outs. The thing is , is the Antelope Orion isnt playing nice with my Mac(thats another story) but basically I just want to figure out if it would even be possible to use the Antelope as sort of a Slave and have another interface as the main ADC/DAC/Clock etc! Just wondering if you may have any insight into this.

essentiel! thanks!

Have you found a solution for the sync issue?

So I have a goxlr and want to get a focusrite scarlet solo. I want to keep my goxlr for my microphone (voice) and the scarlet for my instrument. I don't necessarily need to have both at the same time but I would like to know if I could switch between them in windows audio devices and still use both on 1 pc without issues. Is this possible?

Hey so is this what I would need to hook up multiple keyboards and synths?

If you are using optical, you can pass the optical signal directly into the sound solution of your PC, provided it has input for it. Which you probably want to use. The preamps of motherboards are usually bad but DAC and ADC solutions of motherboards are significantly higher performance than the interface counterparts. 192k 32bit float has been on those chips for the past decade. Obviously, ASIO is a must. Also, some external interfaces come with their own ASIO drivers which do provide a little bit less latency than the open source drivers. A 64 sample buffer should be manageable my most modern hardware, if you want that really immediate response.

Awesome. Thanks a tonne.

A big big thanks!!!

Nice! Can you also use all the outputs simultaneously? So for example, drive 5 speakers with 5 different signals independently from your DAW? It would be for building a system with 3 independent mono outputs, and one stereo output

I dont have that window option? Also im using ableton. Maybe that's why?

does it work with Mojave? Can´t find the Audio Devices add button

I have 2 Motu M2s. Any idea if this can be achieved for a livestream through OBS? Debating between going through that process or just buying another interface. Thanks for the video!

Thanks for saving my money bro

Thanks a lot. For the best help. I am from Bangladesh.

So useful! Thanks!!! Q: I suppose this trick can also apply for configuring different mixes to different headphones (cue sends) on Cubase Control Room, right?

That's helpful, thx

Hi zack 🤟🏻😎✌🏻 Which output did U use for the general audio? ,,, i mean...i need to take out all audio in one output

Can you do this with the same product I have 2 focusrite 2i2

Interesting, I know enough! Thanks!

Thank you for this! so helpful! But how do you use 2 audio interfaces Simultaneously on my PC ? as opposed to using in a DAW. Thanks!

if we use similar interface ... will there be delays?

Could this work using a berhringer xr18 with a focusrite saffire pro 40?

If i have two interfaces may I plug a pair of audio in each of them and have as output just what is being recorded in that particular interface? Or the sound cames from all tracks recorded independently from the interface I’m plugging my audio output?

I have a UMC202HD and a UMC404HD.. When I put them both to record in this video method, during the recording the timeline line is stuck and the audio cuts out, it happens as if it were a frozen frame for a few milliseconds in a video game. video game.

2i2 doesn't like to work with regular asio4all driver, in audio settings in my DAW i have "focusrite usb asio" chosen instead of asio4all. Without it there's terrible latencies. I wonder how it would be working with two same interfaces

Can I combine a 18i20 to a 2i2 by using asio 4 all?

Under Windows 10 I see only input 1 and 2 of my Steinberg UR242, and inputs 3 and 4 don't appear in ASIO4ALL. I can aggregate my two interfaces, but lose two of the inputs of one of them, which negates the whole effect of the aggregate device.

Which interface is your output connected to

Latency is a HUGE problem on Windows for this method. The Mac drift correction built in makes it a much better option for doing this sort of thing. I use the Mac aggregate device method as an inears setup and the latency is virtually non-existent. If you're a windows user, to be on the safe side, get an interface with the right number of channels

Is there a way to use two audio interfaces on two different apps at the same time? I want to record audio on Vegas Pro (video software) and use voice-activated teleprompter software (PromptSmart) on the same computer at the same time. What do you think?

@tomikokki7626

You should be, at least in Windows 10. I constantly run both Cubase and Maschine at the same time with two different audio interfaces. The trick, at least in my scenario is, that the two interfaces are different, i.e. they use different drivers. But... I can't confirm every software allows you to do this, but at least those two allow, as I can freely choose which audio interface I use in said software packages.

I have 18i20 3rd gen (for PC fl studio) and 2i2 (for macbook logic)...I plugged my 2 monitor outputs from 2i2 into the 18i20 (so macbook to pc)...sound is terrible, unless I put it in channel 1 or 2 that have an "inst" button??? But the other 6 channels don't have "inst" button

Will this work with USB microphone and focusrite?

On windows I would really recommend using the same audio interface brand to avoid driver issues, also make sure the two audio interfaces are connected via ADAT with one set to master and the other set as slave

Great video! One question tho: if I wanted to reamp with this method, would there be any problem (such as latency issue or quality loss etc)? I'm havin an issue of lacking outputs rather than inputs. Cheers✌

@Scorge120

5 жыл бұрын

Interesting. There isn't any quality loss with this setup, or at least it wouldn't be any different than using just one interface with more outputs in terms of sound fidelity. Latency will definitely be an issue because you're using ASIO4ALL drivers instead of the drivers that come with your interface, and ASIO4ALL is very latency. What I would do is run a short transient (like a pure sine wave) and use that notch in each re-amped track to re-align everything. By aligning tracks that way you can get things perfectly in sync as far as phase is concerned.

Buy good quality gear once and it (should) last forever. I'm coming up to a decade with it as my primary sound card, day-in day-out usage. With that said, the first channel mic pre has something going on with it... I'm thinking it's the breakout cable but I haven't needed to record in stereo since forever so haven't bothered looking into it.

Thanx ...
