Run "lsusb -v", find your device in output - bcdUSB parameter is version. E.g. Bus 002 Device 005: ID 20b1:0002 XMOS Ltd Device Descriptor: bLength 18 bDescriptorType 1 bcdUSB 2.00 bDeviceClass 239 Miscellaneous Device bDeviceSubClass 2 ? bDeviceProtocol 1 Interface Association bMaxPacketSize0 64 idVendor 0x20b1 XMOS Ltd idProduct 0x0002 bcdDevice 3.30 iManufacturer 1 XMOS iProduct 2 XMOS USB Audio 2.0 ... (Ignore iProduct here - that's just device name, but as bcdUSB shows it's working in 2.0 mode) By the way, USB 1.1 has quite enough bandwith for 24 bit / 96 kHz output. I did that on my older M-Audio Audiophile USB. It's just that you can't go higher than that, or can't record + playback at the same time. USB 2.0 is only strictly required if you need 24/192 or more than 2 channels for 24/96 or more than 4 channels for 24/48. -- Vladimir ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Rapidly troubleshoot problems before they affect your business.
