Focusrite Range

Q: I started ffadomixer and it shows a control panel, but the controls don’t seem to work.
A: The control panel for the Saffire devices only works when the device is streaming. In other words: jackd (or another ffado client) has to be running before the control panel will work. This is a hardware-side choice of Focusrite.

Q: Is the DSP in the Saffire (White) supported?
A: The DSP is not supported at the moment. There are no plans to change this. Focusrite has decided not to provide the information for this part of the device.
