@nielso @patricklang I use a #rme #fireface UFX with an ADI-8 DS MkIII connected via #adat and can use 18 input channels with #pipewire. I have heard that other people have problems with RME on #linux, but for me it works like a charm.

Hi @terjefjelde what do you think of the RME Babyface so far?
I've been looking into the #FocusRite 18i20 as well, but have my doubts..

Reviews for #RME products are all full of praise.

Do you use the FocusRite as an ADAT extension for the RME now? Or don't you need more then 4 inputs.

Thank you @PaulDavisTheFirst for those RME Linux drivers... they served the community brilliantly for so many years!

Today I'm once again leaving Windows behind (https://io.waxandleather.com/@composergreg/112701684980528429) and will attempt to rely on 8 channels from an older (previously retired) RME UFX running in class compliant mode coming from the DM1000. Good news is that with 3 optional ADAT cards, the DM1000 handles 48 simultaneous channels!
