Many here use Focusrite equipment. Indeed, their website says they have made more recordings than any other interface (who actually knows this answer? Never mind, don't answer that. But no doubt they are widely used.).

In addition to the brand new 3rd generation Scarlett units, Focusrite has updated the drivers for the 2nd generation units (it appears the same drivers work for the 2nd and 3rd generation, at least for now). This includes modification to the USB driver as well.

Also, for the 18i20 first generation (the only first generation unit I checked), there is a new driver.

It is heartening to see Focusrite continue to develop drivers for their older units. Many companies (you know who they are) orphan perfectly good equipment way too early.
