Ableton Focusrite Saffire 6 ASIO setup


The ASIO drivers are the best drivers to use.

How to configure Focusrite Saffire 6 ASIO driver in Ableton 10.

Select the ASIO driver type in Ableton Options | Preferences | Audio.

Ableton Options | Preferences | Audio



Windows 10 Sound Settings

If you want multiple applications to be able to use the Saffire at the same time you need to ensure Exlusive mode is not enabled in the Windows 10 Sound Settings | Additional Device Settings | Advanced.
