Hi Ben, list,
I have an Edirol FA-101, which I like, and a M-Audio Firewire 410, which
I don't like. You are on linux, so the M-Audio Firewire 410 won't work
for you anyway. I use the FA-101 on OSX, but it's linux support was one
reason I chose it, though I haven't tested it under linux. Edirol makes
a similar device (UA-101) which is USB 2.0 and is more money for some
reason. My 2 cents. I'm mostly motivated to write because it makes me
feel better about having two devices, including one crappy one.
cheers,
Collin
