If you followed this thread then you are aware of my constant frustration trying to make S/PDIF work with the 2nd Gen Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 on Mac OS Sierra (so much that I ended up selling it)...
Well, I have awesome news!!!
Last week I ordered the new Gen 3 18i20 (yeah, I know...), it arrived just a couple hours ago and right out of the box: IT F***ING WORKS!!!
I dunno what went under the hood between 2nd and 3rd Gen 18i20, but whatever they did, the guys at Focusrite restored my faith in them, LOL.
Even if you happen to have any issues with the S/PDIF RCA input, the 3rd Gen 18i20 now accepts S/PDIF via the optical ADAT inputs too so you can use the RCA to Toslink digital converter method (although I haven't tried it myself right now).
