[LAD] Presonus 1818 VSL Was: Re: So what do you think sucks about Linux audio ?

Thanks, Paul!
Is there any indication of how the DSP is controlled? I've implemented the
mixer controls for the M-Audio Fast Track Ultra (8R) devices fro ALSA in
the past. If the DSP on the presonus devices is really done in the box and
the GUI just sends control messages I'm definitely interested in switching
from my M-Audio device to a Presonus one, even if it takes me some time to
reverse engineer the controls.
