Working with surround sound
Because the Clarett+ 8Pre is equipped with ten line outputs, it is suitable for working in multichannel
sound formats – LCRS, 5.1 surround or 7.1 surround, for example.
To route each channel to the correct output you will need to route the DAW outputs to the Line
Outputs in Focusrite Control (e.g. DAW Output 1 > Line Output 1, DAW Output 2 > Line Output 2,
etc.).
Windows users:
In Windows, surround sound can only be used in software supporting multichannel ASIO. In most
cases this will be your DAW, and in general, DAWs capable of mixing in surround allow you to set the
speaker mapping up in the DAW’s Audio Output Preferences or I/O Settings page.
Please see the User Manual (or Help files) for your DAW for guidance on setting up the outputs for
surround mixing with the speaker configuration you wish to use.
Mac users:
On Macs, surround sound configuration can be done from all applications that support multichannel
audio (DAWs & regular macOS Applications). To do this, go to: Applications > Utilities >
Audio MIDI Setup > Clarett+ 8Pre > Congure Speakers > Conguration > Select the
desired conguration.
