So does it also work at 88.2kHz and higher for you?

Jeremy

     though i mainly work at 48 kHz/24 bit, it works fine at 96/24 as
well with my Editorl FA-66.  however, it appears my controller is not
VIA but TI:

04:00.0 PCI bridge: Texas Instruments XIO2000(A)/XIO2200A PCI Express-to-PCI Bridge (rev 03)
05:00.0 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Texas Instruments XIO2200A IEEE-1394a-2000 Controller (PHY/Link) (rev 01)

Hmmm, my understanding is that the TI firewire chips were THE best chips to use with Linux?

     while we are on the topic, does anyone know of a non-Apple laptop
(current or old) that has a /powered/ Firewire 400 6 conductor port?
though the StarTech ExpressCard solution works well and provides 2x 6
conductor ports, the physical ExpressCard connection is sensitive to
vibration/movement and is easily dislodged.  also, since it does not
provide power via the FireWire ports, i need to also carry around the
FA-66's power brick.

Don't know about that. My ~$1000 Linux laptop from System76 doesn't even have an ExpressCard port: it's all USB2 and 3 only.
