hi all
just wondering what USB audio devices, if any, are compatible with
gnu/linux ?...
im thinking of using USB audio with my laptop... better quality and more
outputs etc....
I would only look for devices that are mentioned here:

I'm not sure if you can expect too much from USB
audio devices. USB 1.x is
too slow and I often heard that USB causes timing problems. Personaly, I'm
considering to buy a Echo Layla 24 (as I already posted) - you can use it
with a PCI or PCMCIA card, has a high audio quality, low latency and you've
got a lot of in- and ouputs (balanced analog, S/PDIF, ADAT, Wordclock, MIDI).
I use a maudio quattro and we are having good success with the driver.
Currently you can use all four channels for playback and recording
seperately. I have successfully recorded a stereo stream for 2 hours
without dropouts with this device.
It works with JACK too although it is experimental and not complete.
As long as the manufacturers make it compliant with the generic code it
is currently supported in ALSA. If is is not compliant it can be fixed
if you are prepared to debug.
