Hello, I am thinking in set up a home studio for
recording and mixing based
on Linux. I have in mind to buy a Focusrite Saffire PRO 40, but first, I
would like to know the experience of someone who has already used it.
I've taken a look at
http://www.ffado.org/?q=devicesupport/list but I don't
have clear if this device can be used at 96kHz, because currently it's
marked as "experimental". I know other Saffire have "full support",
but
nowadays are discontinued. Does anybody used it for hours (and days) at
this frequency?
Also, I would be interested in experiences with similar interfaces that
also work fine in linux.
Thank you,

Hello Agus,
I can confirm the Saffire Pro 40 works at 96Khz. I barely use this
sample rate though so I can't tell if it will run for hours or even
days. I don't see any reason why it shouldn't. I can use my Saffire Pro
40 for hours at 48Khz without any hitch. I've occasionally forgot to
switch the set-up off and the next day everything was still running fine.
Best,
Jeremy
