TL;DR:I'd like to have some other - more experienced - people to back my assumption that the BOSS ME -80 multi effect board is _not_ compatible/usable via its USB audio interface. I already found some threads regarding ME80 but they didn't really help much.
My background:
I started to dig into the topic of recording music for private purposes. In more detail I want to create some backing tracks in order to play to them ( I play guitar and I'd like to practise singing). So my current working setup is:
* A RaspberryPi 4B 4GiB w/ Raspbian
* I rely on ALSA and JACK
* Reaper DAW
* A Scarlett 2i4 USB audio interface
* An old Technics K1000 keyboard connected to the Scarlett 2i4
* A general purpose dynamic mic connected to the Scarlett 2i4
* A BOSS ME-80 guitar effects processor
The problem:
So everything works fine as long as I use the Scarlett 2i4 audio interface as input device. But since it "only" has two inputs I wanted to connect the ME-80 via USBin order to record my guitar with it. The ME-80 supports MIDI & has a internal sound card. I successfully use it on M$ Windows (there is a dedicated driver which makes the ME80 audio output play through my monitors).
So now I wanted to see if it is working on my Raspbian (alternatively on my second PC running a Ubuntu 18.04 x64). I plugged it in and its immediately recognized by ALSA and also visible in QJackCTL. However I don't get it working to play the sound of my guitar. And I have a suspicion: The USB audio card of the ME-80 is "not compatible" with the default ALSA drivers. I think that because both "alsamixer" and QJackCTL do only show the support for "MIDI" but there are no controls for AUDIO. Here are some command line outputs to support my hypothesis:

So to end this message: I think that the ME-80 USB audio interface is only partly "supported" by the "default USB drivers" of Raspbian/Linux. I get the same results on my Ubuntu 18.04 machine. Is there anything that you could suggest me to configure/to check? I'm no Linux newbie but I don't know where to search for further settings that could make the ME-80 run?
Thankk you very much in advance!
Yours,
Kafi
