ok, the BCD2000 is USB compliant and defined at the hardware level. Linux detects the device as bcd2000 but doesn't have drivers for the components past the USB i.e. Sound and Midi, However, it's doesn't appear to be the components that are not compliant it seems to be the firmware of the device that isn't, as you can see from the lsusb output I posted earlier... I also know that I am not the first person to ask about this, if we could get a working OSS or ALSA driver then we would also have a place to start for other OS support. Behringers driver suport is slim to none and any work towards an opensource driver for this device would help to eleviate many who have this device.... Again, thanks for the reaply.. P.S. I can't offer much in the way of money or hardware, but if a developer needs me to help (via whatever software tools be it linux or windows) to determine information about the devices and/or it's inputs and outputs, i would be more than willing to help out as much as I can... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bill Unruh" <unruh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: "DJ A.
