Thanks for the details. I can work on deciphering the raw control messages.
My current idea is to set up a netlink socket and stream the control data to
user space just for analysis. I will look into ALSA sequencer to see if I
can understand how that could be used.

I noticed that we are able to control the LEDs from the host via the
asynchronous link. Do you you think the faders are also controlled that way
or would that also go via isochronous packets to the FW-1884?

Scott
