Stab in the dark here, as it seems a fairly difficult part to get.

But anyone know of somewhere I could source one of these? (or equivalent that would work in same dimensions, 3 pin)

Found a shop in america willing to sell it, but it'll cost $35 for what is a 3 quid part!

Have you asked Focusrite? Pretty sure they’re uk based.

Otherwise you could try to get something similar from Farnell, RS, Mouser Rapid etc.

Contacting focusrite would be cheapest once you factor in your time to work out exactly what is needed. Otherwise I have had good luck before using thomann.de for pc mounting audio connectors. Again, send them an email if it doesn't appear online as they can often get other stuff

Cool, thought they were American, will fire off an email, if not that ebay link looks like it might actually be very similar.

Cheers! Was expecting a dead thread with this yin! 😆
