This disables the check which Windows does to stop drivers being installed which are not officially signed, until the next restart of the computer. At that screen, select option number 7, which is shown below. You will be sent to a special screen which asks you what advanced features you need.
Where Microsoft have solved the digital signing issue for the legacy firewire driver, Focusrite have not sorted the Liquid Mix driver so the actual driver for the Liquid Mix needs to be installed in a convoluted way.ġ) Using your keyboard press Windows Key + the letter I, There is another issue which I want to cover in more detail here, which is on the Focusrite side of things. The instructions are pretty clear from the link earlier in this paragraph. Then, as with Windows 7, all you have to do is switch over to that driver in the Device Manager.

To be fair to Microsoft, they listened to the complaints of myself and many others who relied on the legacy driver and released an installer ( alternative download) which places the legacy drivers in your Program Files folder, where you can right-click a certain file and install the driver to your system. This means that the firewire chip in your computer could not be switched to the old driver. In Windows 7, it was very easy to switch to those drivers however, they were dumped in Windows 8 and 8.1, and you were not able to install them from a Windows 7 machine as the drivers were not digitally signed.
The issue is that the Liquid Mix is old enough that it needs the Legacy Firewire Drivers to operate. Since I use Windows 8 for work and general duties, having to dual-boot to Windows 7 can become a pain.Īt least, that was the case until recently. For DAW work, there is no perceivable difference for me but one of the biggest drawbacks is that the Focusrite Liquid Mix won’t work. Everything from a day-to-day standpoint is snappier and that little bit quicker. One of the biggest improvements with Windows 8.1 over Windows 7 is the general performance boost. Thanks to Manuel Ricciardi who emailed me his copy of the file which I have included as an additional download link.

Update 4: Another update it looks like the download file from Microsoft is gone. When I have not had those installed, running at 48kHz, I would run into a fair few issues so I recommend doing this regardless of whether you have experienced issues yet or not. Update 3: It looks like it is essential that you install the 44.1kHz emulations, even when using a higher sample rate.
Update 2: I have noticed that using ASIO4ALL helps with stability issues compared to my Focusrite Scarlett driver, which looks like caused issues with the LM there have been no issues when running ASIO4ALL Update: Since writing this piece, I have had the Liquid Mix working perfectly on Windows 10 this guide still applies to that OS – This update is for a few Gearslutz who were asking about it.
