This depends ;-) .

At least the m-audio midispocht 8x8 needs a firmware loaded, 
and AFAIK this is also valid for the 4x4 and 2x2s.

Works fine with the loader from Clemens Ladisch (see 
sourceforge.net), but it is an extra step to install.

I also run an Edirol UM-1S which works very well without any 
firmware loading. AFAIK it is meanwhile sold out. But Edirol 
has successors, I guess these should work fine.



Best regards
