Hardware - Soundcard - MOTU Ultralite AVB - Working Gnu/Linux Debian 8.7
Locked
 
|
Hello.
Just put my hands on one Motu Ultralite AVB Work out of the box - Debian/Gnu 8.7 - with Jackd / Qjackctl (with an .asoundrc, not sure usefull to record, but needed to play audio from the browser with html5 videos online) Plugged in USB. Plugged with RJ45 cable to a hub, total access to the internal software with firefox on the IP address assigned to the card - DHCP working - to change all the routing/effects/mixing of the card. Firmware update through the web interface too. Plugged quickly a microphone, worked with Ardour. http://achromatopsie.fr/list/qjackctl.jpg http://achromatopsie.fr/list/routing.jpg This is a really good idea to put all the controls on the card, with a web browser, this make this card «agnostic» from the OS Can not believe this from MOTU...hope others major brands will follow this idea. Did not really test all the settings - 96000 was the setting of the card from the owner - for latency, optical input/output (do not own any device for that) etc aplay -l **** Liste des Périphériques Matériels PLAYBACK **** carte 0: AVB [UltraLite AVB], périphérique 0: USB Audio [USB Audio] Sous-périphériques: 0/1 Sous-périphérique #0: subdevice #0 cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [AVB ]: USB-Audio - UltraLite AVB MOTU UltraLite AVB at usb-0000:00:1a.7-5, high speed cat /proc/asound/card0/stream0 MOTU UltraLite AVB at usb-0000:00:1a.7-5, high speed : USB Audio Playback: Status: Running Interface = 1 Altset = 1 Packet Size = 1080 Momentary freq = 95996 Hz (0xb.ffdc) Feedback Format = 16.16 Interface 1 Altset 1 Format: S24_3LE Channels: 24 Endpoint: 9 OUT (ASYNC) Rates: 44100, 48000, 88200, 96000, 176400, 192000 Data packet interval: 125 us Capture: Status: Running Interface = 2 Altset = 1 Packet Size = 1080 Momentary freq = 96000 Hz (0xc.0000) Interface 2 Altset 1 Format: S24_3LE Channels: 24 Endpoint: 7 IN (ASYNC) Rates: 44100, 48000, 88200, 96000, 176400, 192000 Data packet interval: 125 us lsusb -v : Bus 009 Device 002: ID 07fd:0005 Mark of the Unicorn Device Descriptor: bLength 18 bDescriptorType 1 bcdUSB 2.00 bDeviceClass 239 Miscellaneous Device bDeviceSubClass 2 ? bDeviceProtocol 1 Interface Association bMaxPacketSize0 64 idVendor 0x07fd Mark of the Unicorn idProduct 0x0005 bcdDevice 1.05 iManufacturer 1 iProduct 2 iSerial 3 bNumConfigurations 1 Configuration Descriptor: bLength 9 bDescriptorType 2 wTotalLength 340 bNumInterfaces 6 bConfigurationValue 1 iConfiguration 0 bmAttributes 0x40 (Missing must-be-set bit!)

I have been looking at that one both because it is USB 2.0 compliant (as your report comfirms) and because it has AVB (and is therefore expandable) which I would like to experiment with. I have already picked up an intel i210 NIC (two of them actually) for this purpose. > This is a really good idea to put all the controls on the card, with a > web browser, this make this card «agnostic» from the OS > Can not believe this from MOTU...hope others major brands will follow > this idea. While motu does mention linux on their site for these IFs, I suspect it is a side effect of making it work easy with MacOS (which comes with AVB built in) and being AVB compliant where things need to be controlable over the net. Still, "works for me". Interesting that your computer shows that you have 48channels all together, but the spec says at 96k you should have 64 (32 each direction) with 28 internal and the rest through AVB. I guess it is possible some of these are mixer generated (the ice1712 does that). It appears that at 48k this box will set your computer up for as many as 128channels (64/64 i/o). I am not sure where they all come from though, other places talk about 3 8 channels streams at a time which is only an extra 24. Ok reading the manual, the mixer is 24/24 i/o SO that is where the 24/24 comes from. It looks like the ultralite has 18 inputs and can only accept one extra AVB stream of 8 more while having 18 outputs with the ability to add two more AVB output streams for a total of 16 more. I don't see 64/64 from any of that. With direct AVB to computer, they suggest the limits (depending on the computer resources) as 256 channels total or 32 streams. The total network load can be over 500. Reality check: it is rare even now for me to use more than two inputs and two outputs of my current 6/4 i/o... I have only 8 mic pre. So all of this for me is just spec. I would probably throttle it to 8/8 for my use. -- Len Ovens www.ovenwerks.net _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user |

I've never found clear answer about this card. Alsa's cards list is so outdated (most of the cards are not even produced) I though too, that USB 2.0 compliant, means «work with linux» but it's not always the case. Remember : http://lists.linuxaudio.org/pipermail/linux-audio-user/2014-September/099206.html I've mailed Sound Devices at the time to make a change in the firmware : 12/10/14 à 4:58 PM xxx@@sounddevices.com Hello xxx, Thank you for contacting Sound Devices. I don't know when or if they will make this request available but I will gladly pass this request to engineering for future firmware consideration. Thanks. Best Regards, xxx -- xxx Tech Support Web: www.sounddevices.com Still waiting for a new firmware....last update : Last update May 9, 2011. Maybe next Christmas :) > > While motu does mention linux on their site for these IFs, I suspect > it is a side effect of making it work easy with MacOS (which comes > with AVB built in) and being AVB compliant where things need to be > controlable over the net. Still, "works for me". Yep...the same here :) Happy with that. Good soundcard, all the controls available. Known worse. Still surprised from MOTO who in my memory is listed as «hostile» to free/opensource/linux.... All the best. _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list [hidden email] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user |
