I can confirm that the application successfully connects and is able to
control and monitor the interface, which is a big success! Thanks for
letting me know about it. :)

Sure, it would be great if you can test it and do a
small report here.
Cheers!

Hey, I didn't know about that! That's awesome. I can try it out
and see if it works if anyone is interested.

Hello, what about the Tascam-Gtk application? What I was able
to find in the www, is that it should do the trick. Has anyone
have any experience with that one?
Cheers!

Hey Jeanette,
I wanted to tell you my experience with the Tascam
US-16x08 on Linux.
First off, it works and shows up under alsa. You get the
inputs and
outputs which is really nice.
Now for the downside: it has its own proprietary software
that doesn't
exist on Linux for digital processing and mixing.
Basically, the
interface has its own mixing utility that also allows one
to apply
limited dsp effects and mix/route audio. If you wanted to
stay solely on
Linux, this cannot be used.
Now, if you buy the interface and it has a clean slate for
its digital
mixing/processing state, it may work just fine for your
needs. But, if
you buy it used, you may have to change it to that
clean/stock slate first.
Let me know if you have any questions about the Tascam
US-16x08, as it
literally is sitting next to me at work and I can just
plug it in and
try out things for you when I have free time.

Hey hey,
my two old Delta 1010 cards are definitely dying now. So
I need
replacement for all those analog I/Os. I have
found
three candidates:
Behringer X Air XR18, Presonus ARC16C and Tascam
u16x08(?) and would
be glad if anyone could share experiences with
them
under Linux. I'm
also looking for further alternatives (see my
minimum
requirements
below). I definitely need multichannel audio
coming from
the device.
The Tascan appears to have many microphone inputs, which
cannot serve
for line level input, if that really is so,
it's out.
The Behringer requires the app, which I have not been
able to test,
but its accessibility is not that important, if
the XR18
will remember
settings across power cycles.
The ARC16C's description reads very well, but there are
many
dubious
reviews, perhaps it was an early
"Monday" manufacturing
problem though.
My requirements: one mic in (no need for +48V phantom
power), one
instrument in (Clavinet, I think it needs extra
amping),
at least 12
line level ins, 14 preferred. Four outputs (main
out and
to "sends" to
outboard). No DSP, routing/bussing,... My
workflow is
purely centred
in the box, using JACK for all connections.
Based on the three candidates, I'd say my price range
has to go up
to
700 EUR.
Any experiences and further suggestions are very much
appreciated!
Best wishes,
Jeanette
