wait are you saying Focusrite is Linux friendly? thats
weird because I
talked to the USA national rep about taking Dr. Dre's Beats laptop
(actually Dre's laptop) to Guitar Center in Inglewood Ca. to plug in
the saffire 6 I think its called (usb turd) to run a special version
of Indamixx OS for Beats laptop and even the national rep couldnt
confirm compatibility so we literally got in the car and went to GC to
plug and play and NADA.
Funny thing the rep never answered the phone again after we emailed
him it didn't work... so if you got it going YOURE THE MAN cuz no one
at focusrite could at least in USA as in the whole country of the
united states :)
The saffire 6 is not working on linux at the moment, at least not
with
the distributions i've tried. I spoke to some focusrite folks on the
music fair in frankfurt some weeks ago and they confirmed that it is not
working with linux atm, but they did not know if that will change. I got
the hint from one of their developers to use the firewire-based saffire
devices, which may work with the latest ffado driver.
Well, i'm recording now with OS X and a saffire 6.
