FFADO still works with mine. The ALSA stck work with it too, but where I
was able to run with jack/ffado at 16/2, the best I ever got with ALSA
256/2. to use FFADO the alsa FW modules need to be blacklisted. The list
of modules is:
blacklist snd-firewire-lib
blacklist snd-isight
blacklist snd-dice
blacklist snd-fireworks
blacklist snd-bebob
blacklist snd-oxfw
blacklist snd-firewire-digi00x
blacklist snd-firewire-tascam
blacklist snd-firewire-transceiver
blacklist snd-firewire-motu
blacklist snd-fireface
but probably only the -lib and the -fireworks are all you need.
They are a nice interface. You will want to use ffado-mixer to make sure
there are no inputs directly feeding outputs (mine has 1&2 straight
through) I have a script that runs at boot time that does it all:
#!/bin/bash
# some things to make our audiofire behave right.
# set clock to internal:
ffado-test --quiet --node=0 SetClockSource 0
# mute input channels 1&2 to outputs 1&2

It's a nice piece of hardware. At one point I
had 3 and had them
setup with Ardour as 36 channels. I just don't do any recording or
live sound anymore. Happily retired.
Amazing setup! I'm excited for 24ch
wrapped into 1 device.
I don't know if the linux ui for it is still maintained (I think Fons
in the group did it...maybe it was just the FFADO devs).
In Ubuntu Studio 20.04
