แก้ปัญหาScarlett2I2 Peak Clipping(Scarlett 2I2 Clipping Solved problem)

It's Thai Language in this clip

but for English Language I'll Explain here

Everyone who use Focusrite Scarlett 2I2 usually found that when you're recording electric guitar from Guitars-Cable-2I2 the signal is too hot and Peak clip easily

The gain knob show the red signal so easy and the Meter in your DAW will close to 0 Db or over and it so hard to control your signal.(For best it could be about -18 db for digital recording)



I won't talk about Signal Theory too much Cuz I'm not sure about too ,but I'll say that scarlett 2I2 input wasn't design for Unbalance Signal from Electric Guitars .And the signal is too hot .You'll see that The Scarlett 2I4 has PAD button and when activate the button it will reduce hot signal and the problem is not happen in 2I4


Back to The Scarlett 2I2 If you wanna solve the clipping problem.You'll have to buy 2 Things

-Di Box (I bought it about 20$ mint condition)
-XLR Cable

And That's all

In this VDO I'll Show you

-The signal Before and After using Di Box
-If you're not using Di Box and choose to switch Instrument switch to Line . Yes The Signal will reduce but the tone is change losing Mid/High-High Frequency and the sound will not clear even turn the gain knob up wont help (You can't hear the sound so well in this VDO Cuz I recorded by my smartphone)


So. Buy The DI Box will help you solve this problem and it wont busting your bank.


Hope it will help Good Luck.


*Di Box will turn the Unbalance signal to Balance signal
