This is literally the best explanation made on RUclips a lot of people not explaining half the shit thanks for the upload
Glad this helped! Thanks for commenting :)
Oh my god, man, thank you so much for such a slow paced clear video. I'm a musician, but a proper newbie with tech, and I've been so frustrated fumbling trying to connect the interface. I kept wondering what the 48V button was for, and you've just saved the day! Thank you and please keep making these. ❤️

I approve of this comment. Immensly helpful video! I don't know crap about these sort of things but this video made it very easy to understand!
Hell yeah!
Ma nigguh 🎠
Finally, someone who explains things clearly. I've just purchased one of these so thank you for making it so understandable, it's greatly appreciated!
The technology on the latest Scarlett 2i2 hasn't changed that much since 2017 so this vid is still worth watching. Well done!!!
This is the BEST explanation Ive received. I almost gave up. This video was recorded 6YEARS ago. But it important for me who just bought the 2i2 3rd gen. Literary just received it today and couldnt hear anything. Now I know what was the problem. ( I bought the cables that were missing) Earned a LIKE.
Really good review ! Really helpful !
Thank you, from Thailand
Wow I really surprise seeing your footprint here. btw I really like your RA2 casting.
As someone new to using audio interfaces, and having just bought a Scarlett 2i2, I couldn't ask for a better explainer video to watch. You did an outstanding job with this and I feel pretty confident using my Scarlett. Thanks so much.
Thank u SO MUCH, I'm watching videos about how to set up monitor speakers and audio interfaces for like an hour and not even one video helped me out, and you just answered all my questions in 10 minutes! thank u man
This video had been so helpful. I have absolutely no idea how to record but saved up for this studio pack. All the terminology the other tutorials use has scared me to death...this has been amazing. So well explained. I have even drawn a little picture of the front of the interface and labelled what everything is and does. Many thanks! X
Hello from San Francisco. This is by far the BEST overview of an audio interface I have seen. Perfectly paced and crystal clear. I appreciate how you went over each button/input and their function. Thanks man!
Thanks for the tips John! All the best!
Thank yooouuu!!! I've spent about an hour looking at how to use my audio interface and wondering why the mic won't record, this is the sixth video I've watched and the only one that was actually helpful!
I like the fact that John was clear and concise with his illustration not many bloggers are I came across this illustration by accident and have a similar device but on listening and watching the illustration video it is the same well done John continue the good work
John! Thank you. Excellent tutorial and full of really useful explanations, especially for someone like me starting out on my sound journey. You are a great teacher. Thank you for taking the time to create this. Much love.
Really good video!
Sometime I feel some youtubers forget that there are plenty of newbies watching, and fail to explain simply the features and stuff ...
But this video is great! Both explained things simply - to be clear for people that didn't have experience with preamps/interfaces etc... and still managed to keep it short enough and to the point to fit in the average user attention span! :)
Keep it up man!
Thanks John that was a really helpful, informative and accessible video, I really appreciate content like this that breaks things down at a good pace without talking down to the audience, keep up the great work and all the best with your content!
Thank you so much! I couldn’t have gotten started recording my audiobook today without this very clear tutorial!
You’re the best teacher ! I’ve been searching for a video which teaches me this slowly and clearly . I also hit up your channel. And I saw amazing content ! Instant sub! Keep up the good work mate!
That's so so helpful. You're a real gem, an angel sent to rescue me out of my confusion with recording my vocal as a beginner using home studio recording. Infact I almost gave up with home studio recordings as I was finding it too overwhelming to cope 😭 until I came across this your super well explicit video that addresses all my recording concerns. Kudos to you 👏 🙌
Simple, comprehensive and of extreme assistance (especially the additional links).
For people with less than a fundamental grasp of the world of digital recording, your video is exactly the education needed.
Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Best video ever ! Kudos to you for such a clear explanation my man !
Thank you so much being so clear, straight to the point, and just overall making this way easier to understand. Great video!
Really well made and informative video! Well done! Will definitely subscribe
Yo this was the BEST video. You taught me so much. I am just starting out and I didn't even know if I needed an audio interface and you cleared it up the best. Very clear and understandable video about a potentially confusing topic when starting out. THANK YOU
This is the most informative and simple video about audio interface I've seen. Thank you so much!
great, clean explanation and very elegant delivery both visually and in terms of audio, thank you
Such a crisp and clear explanation! Super helpful for someone like me who’s just beginning to learn abt home recording. Thank you!!!!!!! 🙇🏻♀️
Simply the best . Just got my 2i2 and you just made it so comprehensible. Thanks so much!
that was a very good explanation on how everything works i will be checking in on more of your videos
Your video production and voice sound absolutely fantastic! Nice touch with the chapters!
Great video John. Very informative and educational.
An exemplar video. I have watched a dozen on this unit, they entirely failed to talk around why things are the way they are or even key basics. Useful and much more professional than lots that don't have a corner of a bedroom to work in. Well done and thanks.
You explained everything so clearly and was really easy to understand, thank you! I'm an absolute noob so this was really helpful! 😊
Thank you so much, Sam! I’m glad this was helpful for you. If you have any more questions then it would be great to have you in the Music Production Explained Facebook group, I’m active daily to answer questions and I do a weekly Q&A live stream - bit.ly/MPEgroup

Excellent video! Clean, clear, and well explained.
Thx so much, you explain everything so clearly, for beginners. Some people just "assume" we know bits, but beginners dont and you explain it all.
Excellent video, dude, you make it all so easy to understand, will really help me with the making of my home studio!
Great video, finally someone who explains things clearly. Great job friend.
Awesome explanation! I’m excited to start using it with my microphone with the scarlet solo gen 2.
Great fucking video man. Thank you for that. Clear and time stamped.
i have had my scarlet 2i2 for years it was so complicated to set up i gave up ,the online set up videos were a nightmere to understand to a person whom has little pc knowledge like me . thankyou for taking the trouble to explain clearly on this video and to the point with out drowning folk out with tech talk . i have subscribed and given u the thumbs up well done . regards mark
Outstanding explanation. Great job. Thank you
you are the man. thank you for a very detailed and calm explanation of how the gear works, as well as sharing the do's and dont's.
Thank you for the kind words! Very glad the video was helpful
It's the best and most understandable explanation of an audio interface I've ever heard. Thanks
This is seriously the most informative video on youtube. Super useful for a newbie like me! Thank you!
Scarlett interface very clearly explained. In fact I was here after watching your other video on how to record vocal over a backing track in Ableton which actually helped me choose it for my DAW. Wish they had such videos on the Scarlett site or Ableton site which unfortunately isn't the case and leaves users guessing what to do!
You have SO MUCH information up here that is not covered in many other videos....Thank you so much! #Respect
The better descripción of connecting and using the Scarlett I've seen up to this moment. Thanks a lot.
Very clear and helpful. Thanks a lot.
Excellent introduction. I do a lot of vocal work for radio and this has been very helpful.
truly a great explanation. super good job! I am going to check out more of what you teach\explain. and I' ll find a way to support your work. thanks!
excellent vid .... complete info and very detailed . I wish all tutorials were like this !
What a great video. Everything I wanted to know and no redundant information. 10/10
Extremely helpful video. Thanks so much for all your help, definitely subscribed.

Very explanatory video, excellent for beginners. Thanks
Excellent tutorial!
Excellent walkthrough of the interface and clear explanations. Thank you.
Great video really helpful and thank you
Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for understanding some of us do not share your talents as you politely explain what must be painfully obvious to the “initiated.”
Thank you for the comprehensive information regarding this product.
Great info here! Answered quite a few questions for me.

Wow, thank you!

Thank you for this!! Starting to make my own music. This is fantastic
Such a clear and well thought out video!
I'm new to home recording, looking at buying a Scarlet 2i2, you've cleared up a nebulous matter for me, how to hear backing track, and mic at the same time. Cheers. Great insight video.

Thank you so much for producing such great videos
Thank you so much for the feedback, William! Is there anything else that you would like to see a video about?
The MOST UNDERSTANDABLE VIDEO I HAVE EVER WATCHED ON RUclips
Clearly VERY CLEAR EXPLANATION
THANK YOU DUDE🍓😍
Agree!!
Very nice information 👍
This is the best video I have seen explaining the workings and set up. I currently use a 1/4 jack splitter into the amp other wise known as a 2 into 1 . One input lead from the Acoustic Guitar/POD 2 and the other input from the iPad 2 music backing track.
Thank you for such a clear explanation!
Thank you. Very well done. One of the best product presentations I´ve ever seen. Regards Andy
Thank you so much sir for your packaged information.
