About FFADO

The FFADO project tries to provide open-source drivers for all FireWire based pro-audio devices.

We try to support any FireWire device available out there. The FFADO codebase is a framework that has been built with this in mind. This however doesn’t mean that all FireWire devices work with FFADO. In order to support a device, we need cooperation from manufacturers, or somebody that want’s to reverse engineer the protocol.

Luckily we have support from the manufacturers of the three major platforms vendors build their devices around (BridgeCo, TC Applied Technologies and ECHO). The exact devices supported (or not supported) can be found on our device list.

Thanks go out to Thorsten Wilms for designing our logo.
