Anyone with a Focusrite Scarlett 2i4 here?

Sup guys,

I'm having hard times with finding the right Audio Interface. I just bought the Presonus Audio Box (http://www.thomann.de/de/presonus_audiobox_usb.htm)

but I sent it back today. My problem is the following: I need like 3 inputs, but actually only 2, because the 3rd input is the computer and this works through the USB connection. The other 2 are for my MPC and for my turntable.

As you see the Audio Interface has 2 combo inputs on the front that even fit an XLR cable. But I just couldn't get stereo sound through the box. When i panned a Snare to the left it just got louder and when I panned it to the right I couldn't hear it anymore. When I skipped the Audiobox the stereo sound worked just fine. So I guess that the 2 inputs on the front are Mono inputs.

So I am thinking about getting this Audio interface: http://www.thomann.de/de/focusrite_scarlett_2i4.htm



Hooking my MPC and the Interface up with a cable like this:

So my question is: When i use that cable and just put the one connector for example in the right front connector on the box: Will I receive stereo sound?

I would be thankful for every reply.

The Interface didn't work anyway (only heard cracks sometimes and had to reinstall the driver just so)... I would prefer to connect my mpc with the stereo out connectors. So am I supposed to put the cable for the left canal in the left input and the other cable from the right output to the right input in the interface? That would be not so good, because then I need another 2 inputs to be able to hook up my turntable to the interface. Am I right?

Just connect your turntable to inputs 3 and 4 on the back. Mpc into inputs 1 and 2 on the front?

oh yeah sorry, i thought the one Lamp linked was the same one the op had.. yeah you need a different interface if you want tt and mpc at the same time...

and i was assuming dude had his tt going into a dj mixer. if not, it needs to go thru a phono preamp before the interface...

Yes my turntable goes into a DJ mixer. I will look for an interface with 4 inputs. Thanks so far guys !

edit: I found this one http://www.akaipro.com/eie It's about 150€ and has 4 inputs on the front and 4 inputs on the back, seems like a really really good deal or am I missing something important here?

Finally Set up my focusrite Scarlett 18i6. Once I get to use it with my Set up, and get to know it better, I may be able to help you out.
Till then: understand Stereo/Mono -connections.. Do Some research.
As far as I understand, you need at least four inputs. Two for the MPC (remember, stereo!) and another two for the DJ Mixer. Also: if you want to Record more than two Tracks of Audio at once, make sure you have USB 2.0 (or FireWire of course)

Same here. Just plugged in an sm58 and my headphones to try Out the DSP mixer. And I must say, those preamps are awsome. Sounds Real silky smooth.
