Hello,
I've recently bought a Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 3rd Gen audio interface, great device, but in CentOS 7, with either the available 3.x or 4.x kernels,

Of course, adding the 0x1235:8214 USB ID to the quirks just doesn't work. I presume there's more work like the patch submitted here (I saw the archives) in the "[PATCH RFC V2] ALSA: usb-audio: Scarlett Gen 2 mixer interface" mail thread?
Have you tried treating it as a 18i8 2nd Gen device first, at least?
FWIW, I had adapted Geoffrey's work as a DKMS module:

But you'll still need to be running as recent as a 5.2.x release kernel to use it. It just makes it easier to play with the code without recompiling the whole kernel. HTH. 3.x and 4.x is definitely way too old!
