I don?t know if this is helpful, but this audio interface (scarlett) works with its own mixer on Windows and on Mac. When I bought it, I had to download both mixer and driver form site. The mixer controls some inner properties of the device, and those properties remain "registred" in the hardware. Another information: the program I?m using (mataa on Octave) sees all the inputs and outputs that the device offers. Thank very much for all the help! 2013/3/20 Daniel Mack <zonque at gmail.com> > On 20.03.2013 23:49, Len Ovens wrote: > > > > On Wed, March 20, 2013 3:01 pm, Rodolfo Thomazelli wrote: > > > >> In fact I can't produce sounds with "mataa", but I think that this is > >> another problem.
