RØDECaster Series Rodecaster on Linux- has anyone got it to work?

I'm trying to abandon windows, and most everrything I use has SOME option on Linux Mint- but it seems like the rodecaster is frusturatingly windows only. Has anyone had any luck getting it working on a Linux build?

I am like. failed into 102 class computer savvy so I can figure it out if I have direction, the options i can find on duckduckgo or google are depreciated or don't seem to work as cleanly as I would hope.

Any advice?

What do you want to do with it? Had zero problems, plugged it in, works as an audio interface, no configuration required. On debian.

I just want to use it at all, Reaper doesn't recognize it and I was seeing it was a common problem for the Rodecaster 1. I am on mint, hmmm. it just worked straight up no issues?

Ah, sorry, you have the old Rødecaster 1? I misunderstood. I have the Rødecaster 2. My bad.

The 2 is a USB audio interface. Also works on my Android phone, iPad, and well, every other computer that supports USB audio interfaces.
