3.4 Example Hardware and Software Usage

Saffire 6 USB is an excellent choice for several different recording and monitoring applications.
Some typical configurations are shown in the diagrams below.

3.4.1 Recording with Saffire 6 USB in your DAW

This setup illustrates the most typical configuration for recording with a digital audio
workstation (DAW) software on your Mac or PC. In this case, you might record guitar through
instrument input 1 and vocals through mic input 2 into Ableton Live whilst monitoring the
playback from Ableton Live in the headphones or loudspeakers. You might then lay down some
basslines with the Novation BassStation (included on the Xcite+ Pack DVD) using a Novation MIDI
controller like the SL MkII.

3.4.2 Connecting Saffire 6 USB to Loudspeakers

Both 1/4" outputs (1-2) and RCA/phono outputs (1-4) on the rear panel can be used to connect
to speakers.
