More regarding using Focusrite Scarlett devices on Linux:

NOTES:

To enable Scarlett 2i2 3rd gen. software controls, put this text:
options snd_usb_audio vid=0x1235 pid=0x8210 device_setup=1
into a file named:
/etc/modprobe.d/snd_usb_audio.conf

Note: the exact file's name is not important. What's important is that it has a .conf file name extension and that it's in this exact system directory.

You will need super user privileges to create that file. You can obtain them by using these commands:
sudo su
or
sudo i
