This is kind of a funny coincidence. Back in 2010 I needed a mixer I
could easily remotely control and started to build a setup with a
laptop and an M-Audio Fast Track Ultra 8R (FTU8R). I soon found out
that the FTU8R wasn't exactly working under Linux, though, so I
started digging into it, got people with more knowledge into it
(Daniel Mack) and when finally Aurelein Leblond donated a FTU for
development to Daniel we finally got support for these an similar
devices in Linux. (I just did the mixer controls).
I switched to a Berhigner XR18 as son as they were available: It was
all I ever wanted in a singel box. Switched to the Midas MR18 last
year. It works perfectly for my needs, I get much better latency
without XRuns than I ever did with the FTU8R.
This being said, just *today* I resurrected my FTU8R after almost 4
years for the first time for a new project. Mine works fine.
Most of the times when the FTU8R sound really ugly it's either
a) Some FX that have not been muted.
b) interference of the direct output with the signal through the computer.
Check your mixer settings either with alsamixer or FTU-Mixer:

If FTU-Mixer crashes, like it did for me on Fedora 28, try my fixed
(?) version of it:

Wow! Thanks!
Too late now but I will try this tomorrow. Great feedback (even if I am
now very tempted to buy the Midas!)
All the best!
