I want to automate a small annoyance that is switching clock source from my 8i6 from internal to SPDIF and back everytime I power on/off an external SPDIF device. I can achieve this by watching the connected state of the external device via USB.

The thing I dont know is how I can read and write the Clock Source value from my 8i6. Via Process Monitor I found out that Focusrite Control is sending TCP and UDP messages to an internal kubernetes cluster on my machine. I guess that there is an API sitting there. Can somebody point me further into the direction on how to actually read & write the value? Maybe there is a dll or a dedicated library to use?
