I'm usually doing this with an anlog mixing console or with hdspmixer for my HDSPe AIO card. The main usage of the Focusrite should be Linux PC iPad MIDI out ------> MIDI in ADAT in <------ ADAT out Sure, sometimes I want to record using the iPad, then there anyway no control is available. At 128 frames even software monitoring might be ok. It also would be nice to have an USB device for recording with Linux computers, but then again, 128 frames seem to allow software monitoring and usually anyway an anlog mixing console is involved, so routing and monitoring is no issue at all. Since the inputs aren't passed through to the outputs, I don't patch and test the Linux mixer for the 1 Gen. I consider to stay with the Focusrite for the iPad, but consider to buy a RME Babyface for the Linux PC, to completely replace the HDSPe AIO or to just buy e.g. an 18i6 or any other device, to get the ADAT inputs, I don't get by using the HDSPe, but to keep the HDSPe for analog recording and stereo mixing. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
