Mr. McCoy claims to have enabled the Zoom R8 (yes,
there is quite a
difference between r16 and r8) as a multi-input soundcard for ardour and
also as a control surface in 12.04 64bits.
There is no information as to which driver is being in use in his post. And
searching the web only leads me to various WIP to get the R16 running on
linux.
My question is, has anyone got any news about this device and a possible
drivers?
Specifically to Mr. Brett McCoy: what driver did you use to make jack aware
of your r8?
I'm now using Ubuntu Studio 13.04, I haven't tried the device out yet
on that version. If I recall, I didn't need to use any specific
driver, I think it used the ALSA USB audio & midi drivers
automagically. You have to do a little bit of config in Ardour, to
make sure you use the correct protocol. I don't think it works in
Ardour2 or MixBus, though, just Ardour3. I'm not in my studio right
now but can check it out later today. I haven't useed my Zoom R8 for a
while, actually
