clock-sources: yes. they're exposed by alsa-mixer.
In fact it's a bit of a hassle because they all default to 'external';
but nothing a amixer script can't fix (maybe with OSX or Win one can
write new power-on defaults to the box and even reverse engineer to the
protocol).

sample-rate: don't know. -- good call. I'll check that.

I'm about to get a ssh-login to a debian box with a 1818VSL connected.
So I can poke around before ordering. I've asked to patch an output to
an input so that I can run jack_delay.. -- will report back later. Alas
the box will be ~5500 miles away so I can't play with the hardware itself.

I'm still curious what others think about the device in general or if
anyone has hands-on experience with it.

best,
robin
