NAME

       madfuload - Device firmware loader utility for M-Audio DFU devices

SYNOPSIS

       madfuload [ option ] ...

DESCRIPTION

       madfuload  is  used  to download firmware files to M-Audio DFU devices.
       These devices require a firmware download before  an  operating  system
       driver (e.g. ALSA’s snd-usb-audio) can access them.

       Supported devices:

               - Audiophile
               - Sonica
               - Ozone
               - MobilePre USB (some newer models work without the loader)
               - Transit

       The  loader is not required for some newer models of the above devices,
       like the Ozone Academic.
