rme fireface ucx
General
The RME Fireface UCX is a professional interface with 18 i/o channel (8 analog, 2 mic preamps), MIDI, S/PDIF and ADAT. It has both Firewire (400) and USB 2.0 (class compliant). Their site actually lists Linux as a supported OS!
Software
In CC (Class Compliant) mode the RME Fireface UCX works out of the box without having to use a patched kernel or flashing some firmware.
ALSA will see only one channel, but after installing QJackCtl from Ubuntu-Studio installer everything works.
