I have a Mackie ProFX8 mixer with USB. http://www.mackie.com/products/profx8/ It's paired with a PA system via XLR. Is there any way to get this working in Linux? The USB works in Windows but I've been using mint for the last few months and really don't want to have to reinstall windows just to use this mixer periodically for a show. I run small fundraisers and events for non profits, charities etc. Some of the shows are pro wrestling and the wrestlers use entrance music but some standup comedy as well and the comedians like to mix music and sometimes other audio for their acts.

I have tried mint 17.1, 17.2, 15 as well as several other distros (latest ubuntu, ubuntu studio, geexbox, porteus, antix, linux live, pclinuxos and many others) hoping that one of them would have a driver that worked or have an idea of how to go about it. It seems it would be pretty simple since the USB connection on the mixer is in (out from the computer) to be able to play flac or mp3s. All other stuff like microphone in etc is handled on the board itself, so I guess what i'd really need is just the ability for the computer to act as a sound source.
This mixer is supported by a driver for android 5, so I figured someone might be able to kinda come up with some workaround based on that? http://www.extreamsd.com/USBAudioRecorderPRO/
I found one thread on ubuntu forums where this same mixer was mentioned, but I get the feeling the OP wasn't trying to use a linux computer as a sound source http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1426926 I tried a few ubuntu versions from the time of the thread without success.
A final note, I can't find the driver file for windows. It claims that there's no driver needed but it does take about 15 mins on a 150k dsl line to install the windows driver automatically. Is there some way to extract it and install via the proprietary drivers in mint?
Some folks seem to use this mixer to record audio...that would be nice but at this point I would be stoked to just let a computer running mint to play entrance music + a few songs during intermission. I have been stumped for days and I really, really don't want to go back to windows. I can run lsusb tomorrow when I am in the shop if that would help.

Audio Stream Input/Output (ASIO) is a computer sound card driver protocol for digital audio specified by Steinberg, providing a low-latency and high fidelity interface between a software application and a computer's sound card. Whereas Microsoft’s DirectSound is commonly used as an intermediary signal path for non-professional users, ASIO allows musicians and sound engineers to access external hardware directly.

ASIO bypasses the normal audio path from a user application through layers of intermediary Windows operating system software so that an application connects directly to the sound card hardware. Each layer that is bypassed means a reduction in latency (the delay between an application sending audio information and it being reproduced by the sound card, or input signals from the sound card being available to the application). In this way ASIO offers a relatively simple way of accessing multiple audio inputs and outputs independently. Its main strength lies in its method of bypassing the inherently high latency and poor-quality mixing and sample rate conversion of Windows NT 5.x audio mixing kernels (KMixer)[citation needed], allowing direct, high speed communication with audio hardware. Unlike KMixer, an unmixed ASIO output is 'bit identical' or 'bit perfect'; that is, the bits sent to or received from the audio interface are identical to those of the original source, thus potentially providing higher audio fidelity. In addition, ASIO supports 24-bit samples, unlike Windows NT 5.x MME and DirectSound which truncate 24-bit samples to the upper 16 bits, whereas Windows NT 6.x mixer provides 32-bit floating point output. Higher bit-depth samples offer the potential for a higher signal-to-noise ratio.
