@GMaq I've had zero luck trying to use ALSA directly with my interface (RME Fireface 400). Ardour / Mixbus with ALSA detects the device but will not start ["Failed to open audio device (Typically caused by hardware parameter settings)"].
It's true that firewire is dead and the associated libraries are unmaintained. It's just out of stubbornness that I insist on using this interface which I paid dearly to purchase 15 years ago. I'm nevertheless happily surprised that I can connect it to a USB-C port and it works (more or less) out of the box. Not bad for obsolete technology.
