After read the whole thread I'm almost decided to buy a Scarlett 616 2 gen. It does stereo and have S-PDIF, great. But it is USB powered (only work when the computer is on) or can I just turn the AX8 and monitors and play?
Yep. But you can't change that mix stand-alone. Only the input dials on the font face. That's what I meant.You can store a mix on it with the Focusrite control, using the inputs you want, and the use it without the computer. At least is what I do with the SPDIF input.

Gracias compi, que bueno que hayamos espanoles tambien por aqui para ayudarnos. Pues si funciona tb sin ordenador ya me he decidido a por la 616.I have a Scarlett 6i6 2nd gen and it has it own power adaptor and works without computer. It was one of the reasons because I bought it.
Cool, do you use it?The smallest I found when I had a look was the ESI U24XL. SPDIF and Analog in an out, but no knobs to tweak or anything like that. Works very well.
Is there a small interface that only has SPDIF input and USB output? That really all you would need on an AX8.

hi i got the 6i6 today and having a problem setting up world clock and routing in the mixer of the 6i6, any ideas u can give to a newbie- any ideas will be so appreciativeI considered all of these, settled with the 6i6. Superb interface, absolutely no worries so far. Digital mixer is a godsend, which gives you very flexible routing options. Didn't get the KA6, because you couldn't directly monitor SPDIF (only outputs 1/2 if I remember correctly).
I stayed away from the Quad Capture for something to do with the headphone and the main out volumes being linked (I think, can't quite recall if that was the exact issue).
I plan to monitor the AX8 directly over SPDIF to the 6i6, and then record to a DAW, for zero latency tracking.

thanks jamie
thanks man- i seem to work it out- change the time clock to 48- as well as on my MacBook pro-via"audio midi setup"I caved and got the 6i6 v1 (they're selling them off cheap) but couldn't get SPDIF routing to work. I'm not sure if this is your problem but Mix Control (and DAW) must match the Ax8's 48k
I have Logic X with a 6i6 2nd gen and it stays at 48k.. Just go to your project settings and change it to 48k...You've got it. Just watch your DAW doesn't override the sample rate and switch the 6i6 back to 44.1 (Logic does this)
