Hi All, Sorry for the cross posting, but I'm sure it'd be useful information for people looking for a new audio interface. I just bought a Scarlett 2i2 second generation, and played for a day. I wanted to let you know what to expect in terms of accessibility. Let's go from good news to bad news. The hardware is 100% accessible. Everything is switches, knobs, and a button. On Mac side, there's nothing to install, it works out of the box. There's an optional low latency driver. Even if you install the optional driver, there's no software for control panel. You set latency and sampling rate in your DAW. This is no problem if you use Pro Tools and Logic, but if you use software that doesn't let you adjust latency, this might be a problem. One example would be the latest Garageband. I might have missed, but I couldn't find where you can adjust the latency outside DAW. I didn't see anything about it in the manual either. This should be a problem for everyone, not just VI users. On Windows, you have to install their driver, and unfortunately the Asio panel is not accessible. Screen reader reads only minimize and maximize, not even the title. I haven't tested, but this might not be a problem if you use wdm or Asio4All. If you need an affordable, simple, secondary audio interface, it fits the bill. There you go.
