Common Focusrite Red 16Line Questions
How do I set up MIDI devices to work with the Red 16Line?
Connect your MIDI device to the Red 16Line's MIDI I/O ports. In your DAW, select the 'Focusrite Red 16Line' as your MIDI input and output device to establish communication.
Where are the presets for the Red 16Line's preamps/settings saved, and how can I recall them?
The Red 16Line's settings, including preamp gain, routing, and monitoring configurations, are saved within the RedNet Control software as 'Templates'. Save and recall Templates using the designated controls in RedNet Control.
How do I route audio from my DAW to different outputs on the Red 16Line for monitoring or outboard processing?
Use the RedNet Control software's routing grid to assign audio from your DAW's output channels to the desired physical outputs on the Red 16Line. This matrix allows flexible routing between all inputs, outputs, and Dante channels.
I'm experiencing clicks or pops in my audio when using the Red 16Line. What could be causing this and how can I fix it?
Clicks and pops often indicate clocking issues. Ensure the Red 16Line is the master clock source or properly synced to another device via Word Clock or Dante, and that your computer's audio buffer size is adequately high.
What's the purpose of the 'Dual Port' Dante functionality on the Red 16Line, and how should I use it?
The Dual Port Dante on the Red 16Line provides redundancy and network switch capabilities. You can configure it for redundant connections to two separate network switches for failsafe operation, or use it as a network switch to daisy-chain other Dante devices.
