Follow the sections below to get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\"><li><a href=\"#Register-the-Vocaster\"><strong>Register the Vocaster<\/strong><\/a><ul><li><a href=\"#Easy-Start\"><strong>Easy Start<\/strong><\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"#Manual-Registration\"><strong>Manual Registration<\/strong><\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li><strong style=\"color: initial; font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, &quot;Segoe UI&quot;, Roboto, Oxygen-Sans, Ubuntu, Cantarell, &quot;Helvetica Neue&quot;, sans-serif;\"><a href=\"#Download-and-Install-Vocaster-Hub\">Download and Install Vocaster Hub<\/a><\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"Register-the-Vocaster\">Register the Vocaster<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you get set up, we recommend registering your Vocaster with Focusrite. Once registered, you will access plenty of free software exclusive to Vocaster users to get you up and running fast. To do this, you will use the Easy Start application. However, if you decide to register at a later date, you can register it manually through the Focusrite website. In this section, we will show you both ways to register.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"Easy-Start\">Easy Start<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The quickest and easiest way to register your Focusrite Vocaster is through the Easy Start application, which is available to you as soon as you connect the interface to your computer. Once connected, your computer will detect the Vocaster as an external USB drive, so no download is necessary!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-background\" style=\"background-color:#f3f2f1\"><strong>TIP: <\/strong>When connected, an Easy Start icon will appear. Double-click the icon to start the registration process if this is the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\"><li>Connect the Vocaster to your computer using the included USB-C to USB-A cable, then power on the interface.<\/li><li>Once connected, a pop-up notification will appear stating that the Vocaster is connected.<\/li><li>Click the notification, then double-click the URL in the window that appears.<ul><li><strong>PC: <\/strong>Click the notification, select<strong> Open folder to view files<\/strong>, then double-click <strong>Click here to get started<\/strong> in the File Explorer window that appears.<\/li><li><strong>Mac: <\/strong>Click the notification, then double-click C<strong>lick here to get started.url<\/strong>.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the registration process.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"Manual-Registration\">Manual Registration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you decide to register your Vocaster with Focusrite at a later date, you can do so manually via the Focusrite website. To register, you must create a Focusrite account and use the serial number located at the bottom of the interface.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol type=\"1\"><li>Log in to your <a href=\"https:\/\/customer.focusritegroup.com\/en\/register\">Focusrite account<\/a>.

Vocaster Hub is also where firmware updates are performed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you registered your Vocaster using the Easy Start application (as outlined above), Vocaster Hub will be installed during the process. However, if you registered the interface manually, you need to go to the <a href=\"https:\/\/downloads.focusrite.com\/focusrite\/vocaster\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vocaster product page<\/a>, select the interface you own, and download it from there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Windows on Arm compatibility<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The Focusrite Vocaster Hub standalone software is not compatible with Windows on Arm PCs.
