Maybe this is old news that I missed, but it looks like RME is doing it
right. 56 channel unit. 24-bit, 192KHz, 4 mic pre's, 2 ADAT, S800 1394b
with 1394 hub.

This would make a really nice using for someone to build a remote
recording around.
Too bad that there isn't more going on with 1394-based audio under
Linux. This unit and Ardour would be fun...

Looks really shiny, must be brand new.

Ohh yes :)

What happened to the get together with Yamaha that was going to happen some
time this summer? Has it occured, did I dream it?
I wonder if RME, being rather Linux friendly, have something to add to the
overall support level.

That's a good question. Maybe I should check out what the RME forums are
saying about it and see what RME themselves is doing. this will be the
typical chicken & egg problem. No support since no one owns one. No one
buys one since there's no support. Too bad. Looks like a great box for
an Ardour user.

$1799 list. Probably about $1400 street once the shineyness wears off
just a bit. (It always takes that amount of time before there's Linux
support anyway...)

The last I heard, Thomas Charbonnel was going to do the linux driver for the Fireface,
and will be supplied with a unit by RME (possibly). Depending on how standards-based
RME used the firewire interface, his work might be more generally usable for other
firewire hardware.
