Audio Setup in your DAW
The Scarlett Solo is compatible with any Windows-based DAW that supports ASIO or WDM or any
Mac-based DAW that uses Core Audio. After following the Getting Started procedure described
above, you can start using your Scarlett Solo with the DAW of your choice.
To allow you to get started if you do not already have a DAW application installed on your computer,
both Pro Tools | First and Ableton Live Lite are included; these will be available to you once you’ve
registered your Scarlett Solo. If you need help installing either DAW, please visit our Getting Started
pages at focusrite.com/get-started , where Getting Started videos are available.
Operating instructions for Pro Tools | First and Ableton Live Lite are beyond the scope of this User
Guide, but both applications include a full set of Help files. Instructions are also available at avid.com
and ableton.com respectively.
Please note - your DAW may not automatically select the Scarlett Solo as its default I/O device. You
must manually select Focusrite USB ASIO as the driver on your DAW’s Audio Setup* page. Please
refer to your DAW’s documentation (or Help files) if you are unsure where to select the ASIO or Core
Audio driver. The example below shows the correct configuration in the Ableton Live Lite Preferences
panel (Windows version shown).
