[Hidden-tech] pro audio recording on iphone

[nestor at fuzzy-math.com]

I just heard a review of  Blue Fire yesterday, and It was very good.   
Blue had a very good reputation as a manufacturer of pro mics, even  
prior to their entry into the prosumer market.  Ideally though, one  
would be able to use the device as a true multitrack machine.  The  
iPhone is shipped with a USB host kernel extension, the screen is an  
internal USB device, and their is another one in the dock connector;  
but drivers are an issue.  Something like the snd-usb-audio driver  
from alsa( the adavanced linux sound architecture) would be a boon, as  
it works with a LOT of usb sound devices.  If it is possible, I'm sure  
someone like maudio is working on it.
