Hi,

Quoting Dan MacDonald <allcoms@xxxxxxxxx>:
If you want a USB device, RME do a class-compliant device that SHOULD work
but its pricey and I haven't heard of anyone confirming JACK likes it yet

I was testing an RME fireface ucx in class-compliant mode on linux. I had to modify the file mixer.c and compile "my own" ALSA-part of the kernel. As far as I know, the alsa developers have been working on this issue but the patch is not yet in the official ALSA kernel.

However, I was able to run 8 in- and 8 out-channels through JACK with a sample rate of up to 96 kHz. I think that this is actually the best you can get with usb-audio 2.0, full support of all features and in particular 18 in- and 18 out-channels would require a different driver. I tested the quality of signals with SuperCollider, I basically got the quality which is also obtained using RME's driver on a mac.

Best,

Florian
