Well, just got that one cheap and it does not work with Ffado but using snd_oxfw with ALSA. The pod has 2 in/2 out channels, the docking station 2 in/6 out. 96kHz, 24bit. The docking station does not appear to be the greatest idea for best input sound quality, though. And phantom power whines, which is particularly bad if you want to use one mic with phantom power and one high impedance instrument input. The Internet suggests replacing R5 on the pod daughter board (Mackie has schematics on its web page: now that's service!) from 10k with 300R (probably easier to piggyback on the existing resistor, should not make much of a difference) in order to raise the step-up phantom power voltage generator frequency from 6kHz to something like 160kHz. A serious WTF here but likely something I'll do. Nice compact 2-channel recording interface (the docking station is not all that useful but might make sense if you have a surround sound setup at home). With Firewire disconnected it monitors its inputs, so it doubles as a headphone amp (modulo AD/DA delay but that should just be few ms). No software controllable mixer makes for no tears. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
