jake antelis please do report it then, keeping in mind that we currently aren't testing individual interfaces (hence the importance of this thread).

Ken Flux Pierce so it would seem Focusrite Clarett 8Pre is conflicting with Apple's computer audio unfortunately. Go to System Preferences Sound and make sure it's not set to be used for monitoring (output). Make sure monitoring is going out through computer headphone/line out jack. See if that helps computer audio.

so I can get computer audio through the claret and recorded into a track. but it records it onto the same track as the webcam (not the screen capture) no audio is captured on the "computer audio" track that should be embedded into the screen capture track. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling drivers etc. nothing helps. on top of this, it presents a problem for the type of videos I do (often demos of audio hardware both hard and software).
previously I would record the webcam's internal mic as well as my "computer audio" which was actually the audio passing through my Komplete audio 6. this helped with syncing things up in post as I also import video from my GH3. (I could use a reference shot of me tapping on a table to sync) now the webcam audio channel is taken over by my audio interface (claret).. I've tried to see if it had something to do with the fact that the Clarett has loop back recording and maybe that was conflicting... but still haven't seemed to be able to fix it. I am gonna go ahead and authorize your whole team to all get Clarett interfaces so you can test this on your own set ups... (I'm sure your bosses will pay for it... just smile and say please ;) ) thanks -
BTW have you contacted Focusrite? It seems odd that their device would interfere with Apple's System Sound. That may be something they need to fix. While there are devices that use DAWs that don't use System Sound and, therefore, need to be used as an external device for recording, they shouldn't interfere with Computer Audio.

I have contacted them as I did notice some other very strange things (Random Facebook videos not playing out of output 1 and 2 but instead out of outs 3,4). The thing that gets me is, I used to just select computer audio and that would give me the sound of my DAW (its the same for all DAWS I use so I know that isn't the issue). While I would use the built in mic of my web cam as my sync track. Now I can no longer do this as I have to set the Thunderbolt Clarett up on the track that was previously my "Computer audio" this is making syncing videos much harder now.

I'm experiencing difficulties with the Akai EIE Pro! If I set the output audio to the EIE the whole computer will crash after the 5 second countdown! As soon as I set the audio out back to the inbuilt Mac speakers I can use Screenflow no problem! Anyone else out there experiencing similar difficulties ??

CraigS Ah, cool. Thanks for clearing that up! Will there be any updates in the future to solve the issue or will u just have to put up with it? I make audio DAW tutorials you see and everything would be much easier being able to use the interface for working within logic, monitoring and recording into Screenflow !

Computer audio with RME has always been impossible for me - with the Fireface 400 for example. To do with the interface using RME drivers. However with the RME BabyFace Pro there is a fix: put the unit into Class Compliant mode and you get your computer audio recorded fine in Screenflow. You lose TotalMix control in that mode but that's fine for recording in Screenflow. Another fix is to to use the loopback facility on the RME but not tried that.

Mattias Karlsson Sjöberg CraigS Any word if the Scarlett 6i6 works with ScreenFlow - namely, can you record 4 channels at once? I have an application coming up next month where I need to record at least 3 external audio channels at once. I currently have not been able to talk ScreenFlow into recording both from my Scarlett 2i4's 2 input channels _and_ the Mac's built-in audio input at the same time; I have to choose one. (I realize I might need to escalate to a different dedicated audio recording application; it's just that something like ProTools or Live seem to be overkill...)
