Questions about the FFADO Project

It is a free firewire audio driver for Linux.

  • Free because it is free software.
  • Firewire because it is computer-side software for firewire devices operation.
  • Audio because these devices are audio devices.
  • Driver because it is software to “drive” these devices.
  • For Linux because it depends on Linux IEEE1394 implementation.

If you have or will have a Linux-based computer and a firewire audio device (e.g., FireWire Solo by M-Audio, a FIREBOX by Presonus, a FA-66 by Edirol, …), then this software can be useful for you.
