Resent to list, sorry for the duplicate Chip.<br><br>Ardour supports both the Behringer BCF control surface(I don't remember
the exact model) and the Mackie Control. I personally use a Mackie
Control Universal Pro run through midi fairly successfully.<br><br>It
isn't as much an issue of Linux supporting as it just uses standard
Midi and Midi/SysEx, but rather the software supporting its use. I
haven't checked however if Linux supports the USB connection on my
Mackie, I should sometime, but I am betting it does as it just is a
standard USB/Midi interface.

In my research I have run across control surfaces, which seem like a<br>great idea, but can't find any solid evidence of them being used under<br>Linux. Does anybody here use one and what do they use?<br><br>On 13/08/07, Marc-Olivier Barre <

<br>><br>> Hi,<br>><br>> I own a Hammerfall HDSP with a Multiface II. I could not be more<br>> happy. If you're willing to pay the price for one, it is decent<br>> hardware, and has good drivers.<br>
