Here’s a look at the overall latency numbers according to Ableton Live 9 using a Windows 7 64-bit desktop PC (the numbers are the exact same on my crappy Windows 10 laptop as well): Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 (1st Gen) – Overall Latency Also here’s the link to the full 2i2 vs 2i4 comparison review, along with the 2nd gen 2i2 review. Update: It turns out the 1st gen Scarlett interfaces can work with the 2nd gen drivers for the same low latency settings, although they won’t work at the higher sample rates but the numbers are the same up to 96kHz. So far my preliminary tests indicate much lower overall latency with the 2nd gen Focusrite Scarlett interfaces than the 1st gen models. Getting lower latency is really important for certain kinds of projects, so it’s a pretty big deal when it comes to getting an audio interface.
I’ll post a comparison between them and a review of the new 2i2 next week but for now I just want to focus on the latency differences between the two generations. It works well and I really like it but I wanted to see how the new models compare so I ordered a Scarlett 2i2 to test out.
I’ve been using a first gen Focusrite 2i4 since the beginning of the year.
