Bill,
I also don't see any reason why your Mac (through the USB interface) couldn't be seeing multi-channel audio as USB had the bandwidth to carry it. So, if they've done this right, this is indeed an interesting product. Thanks for the link
Correct, USB on the MAC supports both Class 1 and Class 2 Audio sub protocols. Current support is up to 8 channels as there was a small bug in the OS for more than this. It has been fixed and with Class 2 Audio devices the next release will support up to 16 channels at 24/192. Above that the link kind of falls apart. If anyone needs assistence on multi channel support for hardware, I could point them in the right direction as I do USB Audio hardware.

Thanks
Gordon
