But, if it is a standard, build-in Windows driver for standard USB
audio devices, the Linux kernel might have something equivalent... It
is unlikely that Wine will allow their app to talk to it in a
compatible way though... (I'm no expert on USB under Linux / Wine
though...) Don't buy it unless you confirm it works, wither by testing
it or finding someone else that got it working... (The vendor's
application (and Wine) might not be needed at all...)

Some info posted about the driver:

Linux's equivalent:

http://www.linux-usb.org/USB-guide/x319.html

It may / may not work via Wine's audio system... (capture from USB
might be a bit had to set up, based purely on the amount of qustions
about USB mics on the mailing list...)

For anyone interested, this seems to be the hardware:
