Seems relevant to the linux reverb plugin questions. I would imagine that
the plugin sends out a packet of samples over USB, and receives a packet
back, maybe with a one packet slip to reduce the plugin processing
latency, at the cost of overall latency.

I wonder if they'd be willing to release the USB protocol they use. Its
possible they compute some of the reverb inside the plugins (eg. the ERs)
as a cheap hack to hide USB latency. More likly they dont bother though.

If the protocol is simple enough it could be sniffed from a windows box.

No info on pricing yet.
