Apart from not providing all ADAT IOs and that Ardour can't be used with plain ALSA instead of Jack, even high frame sizes can't avoid xruns. My Scarlett 18i20 works without xruns at lower frame sizes, while all 18 inputs and 20 outputs are available. It was the same for my old AMD based computer with USB 2, as it is now for my Intel based computer with USB 3. I never checked MIDI jitter of the Focusrite, it might be that my PCI Envy24 card and the PCIe RME card are much better in this regard. IOW I only use PCI/PCIe MIDI, but never really tested the Focusrite. If would buy a new audio device, I would chose an USB class compliant RME interface. -- $ pacman -Q linux{,-rt{,-cornflower,-pussytoes}}|awk '{print $2}' 4.14.4-1 4.13.13_rt5-1 4.11.12_rt16-1 4.14.3_rt5-1
