Just bought the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 yesterday as my previous audio interface broke. Now I am having crackling noises when using the 2i2. . .a problem I did not have with my previous M-Audio Fast Track C400. . .so I know it's a problem specific to the 2i2. Already downloaded the latest drivers as well.
Anybody have any solutions or similar problems with this product??? The crackling noise is intolerable.😢
Thanks.
iMac, Mac OS X (10.7.4)
If you're still running 10.7.4 try updating.
If the Focusrite driver let you change bitrate try that also.
I'm glad it helped you but that did not help me. Looks like there is som incompatibility issue between imacs with fusion drive and usb audio interfaces using 10.9 Mavericks
If you are running OS X 10.9 Mavericks this is the solution for that noise problems:

For me it worked fine!
The fusion drive related problems are not solved with this fix. Sorry.
I have also a fusion drive in my iMac. After I installed the new USB2.0 drivers I got the cracking noises only when I pushed the record button... the noises faded in after a short while... When i'm not recording the sound is fine.
Crackling noises when using Scarlett 2i2?
