How to install an audio/MIDI interface?

Hello,

I have a Tascam US-144 MKII which is an usb 2.0 audio/midi interface.

I am wondering if it is supported by Manjaro and if yes how can I install it ?

Thanks
Christophe

It will most likely not work since it is not class compliant.

Forcing the USB connection to use USB1.1 (uhci or ohci) instead of USB2.0 (ehci) or USB3.0 (xhci) might be tricky depending on system hardware

Blacklisting the usb_driver may or may not be needed, but if you have any other USB devices they will be affected by the driver blacklist

Adding the ~/.asoundrc for ALSA will override Manjaro default ALSA settings to use PulseAudio as default for playback and capture for ALSA. The Tascam device might be the only audio device available
