Well because this just seems so braindead I'm bugging Native Instruments and the @caiaq.de guy; I'll let you all know if any useful info comes out of that. I got this from one of their fanbois on their forums: > hmm, > ... it is a soundcard > ... you connect it via usb > ... it works via usb > > therefore Audio4DJ is definetly a USB soundcard! > > That Audio4 is not working with linux doesn't disqualify it, > as long NI doesn't promote it for doing that. Which is kind of "Arggh stupid people". I was hoping we were past the days of being slaves to vendors for compatibility. (And I did mention OpenBSD, he's probably just unaware that anything besides win/mac/linux exists.)
