Unfortunately the problem may lie with the Focusrite’s lack of DC coupled outputs. I was under the impression that CV clock could be accomplished without trhe DC coupling. Maybe someone else has better experience on the subject?

> try sending your square wave to the hapax cv in at 64th note intervals and set it in the sync settings. also make sure you have the output close to 0db, then back off a tiny bit. also make sure your soundcard audio outputs are ‘dc coupled’. this must be the case for it to work. but ive never tried a non dc coupled interface.
