Hi,

It seems that I need to buy an external soudcard for my laptop

• debian 12.5

• Ardour 7.3.0 ds0 “Nerve Net” (rev 7.3.0 ds0-1) Intel 64 bits

and I wonder if somebody has any experience with :

• Focusrite SCARLETT 2i2 4th Generation USB-C audio interface, or

• Focusrite SCARLETT 4i4 4th Generation USB-C audio interface.

It seems that in theory, that works, but I prefer to check.

Or will I have an advice for an other soudcard ? Why not.

Thanks !

Full support for the Scarlett Gen4 hardware landed in the 6.8 kernel. See this thread for details.

For the 2i2, there isn't much beyond USB class compliant mode to worry about, but the 4i4 might have some features (internal routing matrix) which won't be fully accessible on older kernels.
