Hello all. I'm new to the list, although I shouldn't be. I've been
running a Linux-based recording studio now for 10 years, and doing it
professionally for 3. I use ardour, hydrogen, muse2, mixbus, LinuxDSP, and
a bunch of OSS LADSPA and LV2 plugins.
I recently decided to jump into the RME arena (currently using an Echo
Audiofire12 for my converters and interface, and it works beautifully) and
am finding it oddly difficult to get good results from google concerning
the state of new-ish RME products and Linux compatibility.
Has anyone out there used the Raydat interface successfully with the WCM
(word clock module) add-on card? Does the hdspmixer work with the raydat?
Are there any shortcomings, or any reason I shouldn't use it in a
professional studio?
I thought it'd be a good idea to refresh the internet new RME info, because
the latest update I can find is from September of 2011.
Any info is welcome!
Thank you!

Hi an Welcome!
I had the same question some time ago (like a year ago) and decided to go
with the HDSP 9652, no problems at all!
It is a very stable system (which I'm running at 2.9ms latency).
Initially I wanted the Raydat but the Linux support status was not clear...
Warm regards,
Moshe
P.S.: Very nice studio and site! I too use Linux for professional work and
am very happy with the results. Don't understand why not more people go
over to Linux for pro needs.

Hey Moshe! Thank you so much for your reply. I looked very seriously at
the 9652, but I need to be able to record 16 simultaneous streams @ 96k,
and if I'm not mistaken, the 9652 only has 3 ADAT I/O. It has an expansion
card, but after going over the benefits of the Raydat, I think I'm willing
to take the risk. The last reports I've heard were that the Raydat works,
but the mixer had problems, and that was 9 months ago. Since then, they've
merged the HDSPM module directly into the kernel, so that gives me hope. I
also read that the HDSPe Madi card works as well. So... I think I may
just bite the bullet and see what I get myself in to. Besides, it'll be
good for the Linux community to have someone who is willing to test and
write about what's going on with that line of cards. For some reason, the
Internet has very sparse information about it.
Thank you for your reply, and your kind words about the studio! It has
been a fun ride, for sure.
Anyone else have any info on the RME Raydat and Linux compatibility?

Hi
you're right that the 9652 has 3 adat i/o.
If you gonna get the Raydat I would be happy to hear how it is working.
Good luck!

I wanted to use the Raydat about a year ago. Problem was that
just inserting the card made the PC freeze - it wouldn't even
boot. This happened with two PCs, different but both of the
Siemens Celsius range. The card was returned to the dealer, I
got a replacement which produced exactly the same result. At
that point I returned to using MADI instead.
AFAIK it *should* work. The only problem I'm aware of is that at
least the early versions of the driver required a period size of
1024 frames. This was due to some assumptions made in the generic
ALSA code handling HW audio buffers, and this may have been solved
meanwhile.
Ciao,

Hi,
I own a RayDat and it works great thanks to the work of Adrian Knoth on
the hdspm kernel module and hdspmixer. You should use the git versions
though because the ones in alsa 1.0.24.* have some critical bugs.
The only thing that I'm missing compared to my Multiface is the hdspconf
tool. AFAIK there's no equivalent for the RayDat yet so the settings
(sync, FS…) must be made from the command line.
Don't know if the WCM works either. I'd recommend you ask Adrian on the
ALSA mailing list.
Hope this is useful.

Well I don't know the specifics for the MADI card but for the RayDat
that uses the same kernel module, it sure works (with the git version
of alsa-tools) !

Thank you all so much for your response. I wish I had joined this list
years ago. Looks like I'll definitely be getting the Raydat now, along
with the WCM. I'll report on what works, and what doesn't, as well as the
word clock.
Thanks again.

the raydat should work, but there are very few users out there. i'm
cc:ing adi on this, he is maintaining the rme drivers and should know
more. can't comment on the hdspmixer, but even if there are some
problems, they shouldn't be too hard to fix.
i'm using the hdsp madi, which works nicely, and might be an alternative.
i haven't used it at 192k much (only for making measurements), but i
think it was ok.
