If using a surround encoded signal such as DTS or Dolby Digital, you would need a separate decoder as our interfaces cannot decode this type of signal. S/PDIF only allows for two channels of PCM audio to be transmitted rather than 6 discrete channels needed for surround. Please be aware that you will not be able to set up 5.1 surround sound over this connection using one of our devices in either discrete PCM or surround encoded format. If you have a 2nd generation Scarlett interface, open Focusrite Control and use the following settings in the Device Settings tab: If you have a 1st generation Scarlett interface, open Mix Control and use the following settings:
To do this connect the optical output of your external device to the optical input of the third-party converter (using the optical cable above), then connect the coaxial output of the converter to the S/PDIF input on the Scarlett interface (using an coaxial RCA S/PDIF cable). With the addition of a third-party digital optical to coaxial S/PDIF converter you can connect your external devices to these Focusrite products. However the 1st and 2nd Generation Scarlett 8i6, 18i8, 6i6, 18i8 and 18i20 do have a coaxial S/PDIF input. While these Scarlett interfaces do have Optical Inputs, these can only be used for the ADAT format and will not support the S/PDIF protocol needed for this setup. If you are using a 1st or 2nd Generation Scarlett interfaces then you will not be able to use the interface in this manner. If you are using a 3rd Generation Scarlett (18i8 or 18i20), Please open Focusrite Control and implement the following settings in the Device Settings menu:Īn example of an optical cable can be found below: If you are using a Clarett USB-C, Clarett Thunderbolt or Red interfaces, please open Focusrite Control and confirm the following settings in the Device Settings menu: Sample Rate: 48 kHz (this is the default sample-rate for digital audio output) Settings menu: Use ADAT inputs as Optical SPDIF

If you are using a Saffire with an Optical Port (Pro 24, Pro24 DSP, Pro26, Pro 40, and LS56), please open Saffire Mix Control and use the following settings: In the Audio menu for your electronic device, please ensure that the format for the Optical Output is set to Linear PCM and not DTS or Dolby Digital. You can use this port to send two channels of Digital Audio via Optical SPDIF to the Digital Optical Input of your audio interface.
Many electronic devices such as TVs, DVD players, and Videogame Consoles have Digital Optical Output ports. This article will describe the different ways these devices can be connected to your interface.ĭevices with Digital Optical Audio Outputs: Connecting these devices to your audio interface would allow you to do a number of things like recording the output of these devices or listening to the output through your monitor speakers. Many modern TVs, DVD players, Videogame Consoles (Playstation, Xbox, etc.), and other entertainment devices have audio output options that allow them to be connected to Focusrite interfaces. This applies to all Saffire, Scarlett (1 st, 2 nd and 3 rd Gen) Clarett USB, Clarett Thunderbolt, and Red interfaces
