Thank you for the reply Glenn :) it's good to know that at least you are using the same card. It's already possible to use the card for audio production on my machine and the sound quality, especially of the phones output is awesome, but I don't have a good work flow, since a production could always be interrupted by xruns etc. and I need all ADAT channels. RME is willing to help, if an ALSA developer should be interested and I got a reply at ALSA user mailing list, http://www.mail-archive.com/alsa-user@lists.sourceforge.net/msg29596.html . Installing a Windows for test purpose becomes a PITA, I need to unplug one of my SATA drives and I hot glued the connectors :D, hopefully it does work, if I only disconnect the drive from power. I have to continue now, I only missed to download http://cygwin.com/index.html , so I booted Linux again and checked emails. I hope Cygwin will make it easier to handle Windows. I'll test Jack and Fluidsynth for Windows, but I'm not really interested, I'm only doing it, to test the mobo and RME card. $ ls -l /mnt/u1.ntfs total 212688 -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40091352 May 13 15:34 9-3_xp32_dd_ccc_wdm_enu.exe -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 419835 May 13 09:10 ASIO4ALL_2_11_Beta1_English.exe -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 151247144 May 13 09:12 cispremium_installer.exe drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4096 May 13 14:17 fluidsynth-1.1.6 drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 May 13 14:01 fut_wdm_dspe -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 821758 May 13 14:09 hdspeaio_e.pdf drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4096 May 13 14:03 hdsp_wdm_335 -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 24482014 May 13 14:12 Jack_v1.9.9_32_setup.exe drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4096 May 13 14:24 radium_1.9.30_demo_win -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 705053 May 13 18:35 setup.exe drwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Mar 19 07:44 System Volume Information Regards, Ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
