Hello all,


I'm looking to record using Reaper & my Focusrite scarlett 2i2, after 90 minutes of trying to get reaper to acknowledge the interface (which ended up just being a simple usb port swap) I finally have them compatible and ready to go.


My problem is the audio output; isn't having any of it.


I have headphones plugged into the interface and I have a track playing that I can't hear.


The headphones work in the interface for any other sound in the computer, just nothing in reaper.


The input levels are shown when the track is playing and the track is not muted. Inputs are ticked as enabled, the only outputs I can select are output 1 and output 2, nothing for headphones?


I can't find a solution anywhere online.


Thanks <3

Make sure you have the latest Focusrite ASIO driver. In Reaper, select the "Focusrite USB ASIO". The in and out configuration is set up for ya already. Then make sure you have the headphone amp turned up on the 2i2 (the small knob, not the large one, that's for line out for monitoring speakers)
