I just bought a pair of two older Roland VSR-880

the only way to do it digital is through the R-bus which is a Roland
thing, but i found this device
http://www.thomann.de/gb/presonus_vfire.htm and wonder if anyone here
succeeded to install the device on Linux ?
Maybe I used the wrong keywords but I can't find anything about it on
Google.
if you can find out whether it uses a DICE or BEBOP chip, then there's a
chance it might run with ffado.
As old as that device is I am pretty sure its not DICE based. Might be BEBOP
but there are no guarantees. Could very well be a totally different chip
altogether...
i didn't say this, but you can always order the
thing, fiddle away for a
week and then return it in "as-new" condition with a full refund.
Thats a nice feature in Germany if you buy it online. For direct selling or
outside of Germany, please make sure that you get your funds returned before
trying this.
Have fun,
