    Looks great, and from the specs, I suspect it shares a lot with Focusrite's new Clarett line.
     
    Unfortunately, like the Clarett, there's currently only Mac support. 

    SonarPlat/CWbBL, Win 10 Pro, i7 2600K, Asus P8Z68 Deluxe, 16GB DDR3, Radeon HD5450, TC Electronic Impact Twin, Kawai MP11 Piano, Event ALP Monitors, Beyerdynamic DT770 Pro, Too Many Plugins, My lucky hat.

    Sadly Focusrite seem to employ the slowest driver writers in the known world so they'll get around to writing thunderbolt windows drivers in about 2040.
     
    I've given up on them, because they just can't keep their stuff up to date, at least not for my tastes. I still have a 6i6 but when I replace it, it will not be with a Focusrite, it'll probably be RME.

    FWIW, We don't have "PCIe via Thunderbolt" drivers available for Thunderbolt 2 under Windows.
    Any Thunderbolt 2 audio interface connected to a PC is currently running "Firewire over Thunderbolt".
     
    We do have official "PCIe via Thunderbolt" drivers available for Thunderbolt 3 under Win10.
    You have to be running one of the latest Z170x motherboards (Skylake) that supports Thunderbolt 3 via USB-C connection.  
    Microsoft claims TB3 support should be backward compatible with TB2 and TB1... but they don't guarantee it.
