it is decidedly old school now but I have an emagic emi 2|6 and it works well. The kernel in debian testing supports it on bootup and jack does as well. Jack does not support it in Debian stable, which you can read about on this lists's archives by searching for my name. -lee -----Original Message----- From: ico <ico@xxxxxx> Subj: What is currently the best USB audio interfacefor Linux? Date: Mon Mar 20, 2006 20:06 Size: 527 bytes To: linux-audio-dev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Hi all, I am in the process of considering a portable USB audio interface. Having checked the alsa matrix, I am a bit at a loss what may be the best option. Things I am looking for are as follows (they are listed in no particular order): 1) USB interface 2) Preferrably USB 2.0 capable 3) Audio and MIDI capability 4) High fidelity (higher the better) 5) More inputs/outputs, the better 6) Preferrably has some preamp inputs 7) Obviously must be supported in Linux/Alsa 8) Price not an issue Any ideas? Best wishes, Ico
