Well, I got the UA-101 cause I heard that the Edirols are perfectly supported (btw the FA-101 with FFADO is working flawlessly). However, it turned out that up to the previous alsa, it wasn't supported, and when it did in the latest alsa version, playback was corrupted (not recording!) due to some

Are you sure you really get 24 bit duplex? I don't think USB 1.1 has enough bandwidth. I was burned during a show at STEIM by accidentally switching the advanced switch on and the USB bus threw a kernel panic as soon as I hit a song with an [adc~]. Took me a while to figure that one out. Sent f
