Guitar Center had these on sale cheap, and I couldn’t resist. It claimed to be “class compliant” on the box for 2 channel input and 4 channel output at 16-bit/48khz, so I figured it was worth a try.

Much to my amazement, it actually works. At least, mostly. I get the following in /sys/class/sound:

adsp
+audio
+controlC0
+dmmidi
+dsp
+midi
+midiC0D0
+mixer
+pcmC0D0p
+pcmC0D1c
+pcmC0D1p
+

mplayer can play to both stereo output channels on the device, but only at 16-bit/44.1khz, as far as I can tell:

+ +
mplayer -ao alsa:device=hw=0.0
+
+mplayer -ao alsa:device=hw=0.1
+
+ +

Both streams work at once (the headphone stream switch button on the front is really nice), and it sounds great!
