Dragan, I'm sorry but I don't really know. As I said earlier I set up my HDSP 9652 - not a Digiface or Multiface - the plain card - probably 3 or more years ago. I'm not even sure that the Multiface firmware revision numbers match the HDSP 9652 numbers so I'd not want to tell you one thing and have it break your card. When I first got my card it had firmware that was supported by Linux. Somewhere along the way I upgraded under Windows, found the problem in Linux and had to downgrade under Windows to get Linux it working again. I worked alot with Thomas Charbonell to help get hdspmixer & hdspconf working. I gave Thomas an account on my system. He was in France at the time but did some of the development logged into my machine here in California. He'd make changes from while I sat by the computer. I'd then run the new version and report back to him by chat session what the program did. We eventually got things working. The only reason I report all that is to say that since hdspmixer started working I've never touched my firmware again. I'm slightly disappointed that I cannot upgrade as this stops me from using new drivers supplied by RME for Windows. Disappointing but not the end of the world. Wish I could help mire.
