I did an internet search and saw some posts saying that it works fine
with Linux. Most USB devices just work in Linux these days if they are
compliant with the spec. It is normally access to internal mixing paths
that might not be available. But this should not be a problem with 2 inputs.

Have you tried setting it up in studio-controls as the USB device, and
clicked to start Jack? What do you see when you do that?

2020-11-08 Thread Mike Squires
I'm posting this because I'm using a USB audio/MIDI interface box with 
20.04 rather than the on-board audio or an add-in card.


I'm currently running 20.04 on a variety of hardware; one of them is a 
Dell T3600.  I added a PreSonus 24C external mic/MIDI box with USB 
connection and it was immediately recognized and is working well with 20.04.


I haven't really tried using the MIDI.  Thanks for posting the link to 
the Ubuntu Studio controls page in the Wiki so I have hope.  My Alesis 
keyboard does appear in the various control apps but I haven't actually 
tried to get it to work.  I did learn that it was a good idea to create 
a temporary user ID so that any changes that are not working can be 
reversed just by logging out and logging back in with the standard 
user.  I did look at the audio HOWTO but the controls in the document 
seem different from those now present in 20.04.


I also plan on adding a MIDI connected Korg Triton Rack synth in the future.

My older workstation is a Supermicro X7DAE dual Xeon with PCI-X, a 
PCI-E, and a PCI slot on the MB.  This PC uses a M-Audio card (model 66? 
seems similar to the 1010) with an external I/O box. This is also 
working well.  I now have a Nikon NS2000 slide scanner on an Adaptec 
SCSI PCI-X controller using Vuescan which is recognized but not tested, yet.


I am working on installing on a Dell T7600.  The T3600 and T7600 are 
Dell's older scientific workstations with older Xeon CPUs, nVida high 
performance video cards, and a lot of options for expansion.  The T7600 
appears to have 1 drive slot using the on-board SATA controller and 4 
slots using the installed SAS/SATA controller.  The T3600 was $170 from 
an eBay surplus dealer and the T7600 was $125 from the local 
university.  Both are very quiet for units that consume as much power as 
they do (T7600 is rated 1300 watts max).


I use this older hardware because it allows me to re-use older 
third-party hardware but obtain performance that seems equal to modern 
low-end hardware.  For example, the X7DAE with its 8 2.5 Ghz Xeon cores 
clocks in the top 10% of results for SciSoft Sandra and the installed 
Radeo 7000 series video card clocks well with Linux graphics 
benchmarks.  I haven't tested the Dell PCs yet.

hi list,

here is my output of aplay -l

 Liste der Hardware-Geräte (PLAYBACK) 
Karte 0: SB [HDA ATI SB], Gerät 0: ALC892 Analog [ALC892 Analog]

And yes, you are right, I have a Steinberg UR22mkII 

This device is first there for testing.
If it doesn't work, I'll get a Focusrite with MIDI.
This one I saw on the "alsa-website" for supported hardware in linux. 

bye hans
