hi all
is anyone using this? I'm considering new hardware, but want to find out
first if there are drivers available?
The fireface uses a custom protocol over firewire which RME dont want to
give out, hence no drivers.
In general, when I remember the freebob lecture on last years LAC
correctly, Firewire is not capable to be driven with a really small
latency. Best bet are RME products using PCMCIA for laptops or PCI Cards
for stationary computers, which are quite well supported, but check the
mentioned alsa table first.
I wonder if the new PCI ExpressCard of RME for ExpressCard slot, which
seems to be the new standard on laptops, works already under Linux.
Cheers,
Malte
