[linux-audio-user] midi issue and Event EZBus letter

Frank: When you say supported as a USB-device does that mean that essentially my Linux box will recognize it as a device which allows me to use it as a recording device into Ardour or Muse or Audacity (in this case allowing 2 channels of recording) just as I would in my Mac, but just bypassing all of the Event provided interface software such as the Mix Librarian and templates that are issued for Win/Mac users? I understand your concern for wanting the source itself instead of a version done by the manufacturer. I guess I was just eager about an Event driver since when I see the RME products that work well with Linux I assumed that this is how RME was issuing their drivers, namely, from within their organization. Does RME or M-Audio give their code to Linux developers? Thanks for the reply, gk
