In the interests of correctness, "Fireface 800" should obviously have been
"Fireface UFX".  The Fireface 800 doesn't have USB ports.  Apologies for any
confusion.

It's entirely possible that the 8 port limit in USB class compliant mode
applied to older firmware and has been removed in later versions.  In that
case the inability to use more than 8 channels must have another cause.
