My audio interface has SSH enabled by default

Nice writeup and great domain. I don't know Zola and don't know if this is a common template or a custom jobbie but it's lovely.

Its still crazy to me that everyone has a pocket AI-hacker ready to inspect firmware and modify their devices now. You just put the agent on it and it gives you access in minutes. You would have to be a Hotz tier hacker if you wanted to do anything close to this only last year, or at the very least extremely patient for long hours.

		Damn, maybe I can throw an agent at trying to unlock IMEI spoofing on my Unifi LTE modem. That one guy on twitter who does all the LTE modem unlocking never replied to my tweet :(

		This 1000% - I’ve used AI to enable SSH in one Phase One digital back I own, and to reverse engineer and patch the firmware on another to make the back think it’s a different back - Credo 50 to IQ250! The internals are literally the Sam.

		its really nice to not have to spend hours looking thru packet captures and stuff, i enjoy digging but as i'm getting older I have less time to spend 16 hour days looking at random firmware blobs

I really want to know how he solved this problem, which I also face:

>last year i bought a Rodecaster Duo to solve some audio woes to allow myself and my girlfriend to have microphones to our respective computers when gaming together and talking on discord in the same room without any echo

Having the firmware image just be a boring old tarball + hash sounds super nice. I wish more devices were this open, and I hope Rode won't see this and decide to lock the firmware upgrades down.

		In the off chance anybody from Rode sees this: This makes me want to purchase your gear. Don't change it. It's funny this comes up now. Tomorrow I'm dragging my Zoom R20 recorder on-site to use as an overly-featured USB audio interface for a single-mic live stream. If I'd know this about Rode a week ago I'd have purchased one of these and could have left my R20 hooked-up in the home studio!

I understand the hacker rationale to have fun owning the device, and i would like it to stay that way.

But... please do not forget that the CRA will put a heavy blanket on that fire.

why was disclosure the objective? wouldn't you want to keep this interface open?

not really an objective, I hope RODE continues to keep it open
