I use is regularly for DJing, although only with 2 channels. I used it
yesterday for recording with ardour and the sound was pretty crap. I
have at various times got excellent quality out of it though, it was
through the direct alsa layer.
I haven't tried it with latest jack and all the i/o options. If you have
the time it would be nice to hear how the latest code is working. You
should make sure you are using at least:
latest 2.6.x
latest cvs alsa drivers
latest cvs jack
Otherwise I will probably give it a run in the next few weeks ;)
You could always use it only with the alsa native drivers
arecord -f 24_3le -r 96000 -c 2 -D quattro1 -d 5 test.wav
will record a five second test at the highest quality available on the
first two channels.
I haven't had much luck using it with jack for recording. Last time I
tried it didn't work well enough for 4 channels and the 24 bit support
doesn't register for me (although it did for at least one other person).
