This is awesome news. I've been interested in MOTU interfaces for a long time, but avoided them given their lack of cooperation with the Linux community.

Which interface did you use? Does it work with thunderbolt, USB or both? If you've tried both did you notice any differences​ in performance between the two?

Thanks for sharing your experiences.

Hi,

Thanks for this review, it is always useful and interesting to get hands-on experiences with hardware on Linux...

After a bit of fiddling around with my Network settings I got the
control software to work, and I must say it's just amazing to have a
piece of equipment that I can fully use under Linux.
There is a full featured mixer in the DSP that's also a nice addition,
but the main thing for me was the routing matrix, which is pretty cool
to have.

To summarize I'm feeling that we are moving in the right direction here...
I hope other manufacturers will follow and make Interfaces and software
that work with Linux...

Yes I agree. On the MOTU website I even read: "MOTU AVB audio interfaces can be remotely controlled from a hardware controller or software interface using either OSC or HTTP."

And yes hopefully manufacturers will continue with class compliant open APIs, web-apps etc. for control software...

Lorenzo.
