Common Focusrite Scarlett Solo 4th Gen USB Audio Interface and Rode NT1 Microphone Bundle - Black Questions
Can I connect a MIDI keyboard to the Scarlett Solo 4th Gen and use it with my DAW?
No, the Scarlett Solo 4th Gen does not have MIDI input/output ports. You'll need a separate MIDI interface or a keyboard that connects directly to your computer via USB.
How do I activate and use the Auto Gain feature on the Scarlett Solo 4th Gen?
Press the illuminated 'Gain' button on the front panel until it turns purple to engage Auto Gain; the Solo will automatically set the input gain for your microphone or instrument within a few seconds of you playing or singing.
My microphone isn't being recognized by my computer when plugged into the Scarlett Solo 4th Gen. What should I check?
First, ensure the +48V phantom power switch is engaged on the front panel if you are using the Rode NT1 condenser microphone. Also, double-check your DAW's audio input settings to ensure the Scarlett Solo is selected as the audio input device.
What is the 'Clip Safe' gain setting on the Scarlett Solo 4th Gen and how does it work?
Clip Safe is a gain setting that automatically adjusts the input gain on your Scarlett Solo 4th Gen to prevent clipping during recording, even if the input signal becomes unexpectedly loud. It's engaged by pressing the 'Gain' halo, and it will appear green when active.
The volume from the Rode NT1 through the Scarlett Solo 4th Gen seems low. What could be the problem?
Make sure the gain knob on the Scarlett Solo 4th Gen is turned up sufficiently, and that phantom power (+48V) is engaged. It's also possible the input signal from your microphone or instrument is simply quiet, so adjust your performance accordingly.
