I'm a professional musician who DESPERATELY wants to use my linux system to record using my Alesis Multimix 16 USB 2.0 mixer/audio interface, but alas, there is no linux driver provided by Alesis. There IS, however, a Mac driver available here: and older mac drivers here: I'm no computer genius, but I believe the Mac OS is basically a linux OS with some proprietary additions/subtractions so to my feeble understanding, wouldn't the Mac driver just need a slight bit of 'rewiring' to be able to work with linux? Any help would be greatly appreciated, and there's an older 10GB ipod waiting at my house for anyone who can make this work for me along with a link on EVERY one of my websites AND credit on any albums recorded (along with free copies, of course.) PLEASE-- I DON'T WANT TO USE WINDOWS!!!!!
Because i was curious about it, i searched in a search-engine. This doesn't look good. See comment (0005390) Some months ago a friend of mine brought along some mixer. I wanted to try it with Ubuntu, i plugged it in, and after a little while i could record something in audacity.
(I think i had to do 'sudo update-usbids before it was properly recognised) I don't remember the brand name from that mixer, but i assume that usb 1.x for some mixers could work in Linux. I think your options are: 1) ask the company to provide more details and write a driver for Linux. 2) find a programmer who writes a Linux driver by somehow reverse-engineering communication (in MacOSX or MS-Windows) with the mixer. The programmer will need physical access to such a mixer as you have. For example here's a programmer who writes Linux drivers for cash (check: Linux Device Driver Service) 3) buy an apple computer and use both MacOSX and Linux 4) try the Hackintosh on your pc and see whether it works with that (I think this is risky legally speaking, even when you have a MacOSX license) 5) get a mixer-device which is supported well by Linux Using the MacOS driver in Linux is not an option unless the source code of that driver would be open source. And i assume that using the windows driver with Ndiswrapper in Linux wouldn't work because my impression is that Ndiswrapper focuses on wifi cards, but i could be wrong of course.
I have an Alesis USB 16 and it actually not need any driver to run, however you can download some ASIO Driver recomenden on the Alesis Manual Guide. Here`s what it says: Compatible Third Party ASIO Drivers for Windows XP In some cases, the regular built-in driver for audio in Windows XP may still have some latency issues. In these cases you may want to try using 3rd party ASIO drivers. Some examples of tested ASIO you can download are available on these websites.
The Alesis MultiMix USB 2.0 mixers provide USB 2.0 technology for ultra–fast, low–latency, 24–bit/44.1–96kHz (with high–end A/D and D/A conversion) multi–channel audio. Mar 11, 2015 Alesis Multimix 4 USB FX 4-Channel Mixer with Effects Plus USB Audio Interface. This is more a function of the Windows driver, but a relief because dell laptop. The Alesis MultiMix 4 USB is a compact 4-channel desktop mixer with a built in USB digital audio interface.
These companies are not affiliated with Alesis, but do offer Windows XP ASIO drivers that work with the MultiMix Mixers with USB. Please contact them for specific questions relating to their software and your computer.
