Replace README with a project sunsetting notice

I'm going to mark Geoffrey as having the copyright range up to 2025
because that's when I'm actually assembling this branch. Not like this
needs to be made as-if it was done at that point.

The previous copyright file indicated "LGPL" was an option. I think I
had done that because of the "GPLv3 *or later*" phrasing. I don't think
that's how it works -- the LGPL is not a "newer version" of the GPL.

 ## What is this?
 
-The Scarlett2 Protocol Driver (also known as the Scarlett2 Mixer
-Driver) is a part of the Linux kernel, enhancing the ALSA kernel
-driver with additional controls for Focusrite Scarlett, Clarett, and
-Vocaster interfaces.
+The ALSA Scarlett Control Panel (`alsa-scarlett-gui`) is an
+easy-to-use application for adjusting the ALSA controls provided by
+three Linux kernel drivers for Focusrite USB interfaces:
+
+1. The Scarlett 1st Gen Mixer Driver (for 1st Gen 6i6, 8i6, 18i6, 18i8, 18i20)
+2. The Scarlett2 Protocol Driver (for 2nd/3rd Gen interfaces, small 4th Gen, Clarett, and Vocaster)
+3. The FCP (Focusrite Control Protocol) Driver (for big 4th Gen interfaces: 16i16, 18i16, 18i20)
 
 To check if your kernel is already up-to-date, and how to upgrade if
 not, see the [Control Panel Installation Prerequisites — Linux
 Kernel](docs/INSTALL.md).

 deactivate MSD mode by holding down the 48V button while powering it

-## What is the purpose of the driver if it’s not needed for audio?
+If you do the recommended/required (depending on the model) firmware
+update, MSD Mode will automatically be turned off.
 
-This driver is for users who want more control over their interface.
-It allows for detailed manipulation of internal audio routing and
-settings specific to Scarlett, Clarett, and Vocaster devices, beyond
-the basic audio I/O functionality. Also, being able to monitor the

+## What is the purpose of these drivers if they’re not needed for basic audio?
+
+These drivers are for users who want more control over their
+interface. They allow for detailed manipulation of:
+
+- Internal audio routing
+- Hardware-specific settings
+- Mixer functionality
+- Level monitoring
+- Input/output configuration
+
+These controls go beyond the basic audio I/O functionality provided by
+the generic ALSA USB audio driver.
 
 ## What interfaces are supported?
 
-- All Scarlett 2nd Gen interfaces with software controls (there are no
-  software controls on the 2nd Gen Solo and 2i2, so the mixer driver
-  is irrelevant).
+The ALSA Scarlett Control Panel supports:
 
-- All Scarlett 3rd Gen interfaces.
+- **Scarlett 1st Gen**: 6i6, 8i6, 18i6, 18i8, 18i20
+- **Scarlett 2nd Gen**: 6i6, 18i8, 18i20
+- **Scarlett 3rd Gen**: Solo, 2i2, 4i4, 8i6, 18i8, 18i20
+- **Scarlett 4th Gen**: Solo, 2i2, 4i4, 16i16, 18i16, 18i20
+- **Clarett USB and Clarett+**: 2Pre, 4Pre, 8Pre
+- **Vocaster**: One, Two
 
-- Scarlett 4th Gen Solo, 2i2, and 4i4.
-
-- All Clarett USB and Clarett+ interfaces.
-
-- Vocaster One and Vocaster Two.
+Note: The Scarlett 1st and 2nd Gen small interfaces (Solo, 2i2, 2i4)
+don’t have any software controls. All the controls are available from
+the front panel, so they don’t require the specialised drivers or this
+GUI.
 
 ## Where are the options to set the sample rate and buffer size?
 
-It’s important to note that the Scarlett2 driver and
-`alsa-scarlett-gui` have nothing to do with audio input/output to and
-from the device. This task is managed by the generic part of the ALSA
-USB soundcard driver.
+The ALSA Scarlett Control Panel doesn’t handle audio input/output
+settings like sample rate and buffer size. These settings are managed
+by the application using the soundcard, typically a sound server such
+as PulseAudio, JACK, or PipeWire.
 
-Audio settings like the sample rate and buffer size are chosen by the
-application which is using the soundcard. In most cases, that is a
-sound server such as PulseAudio, JACK, or PipeWire.
+The sample rate shown in the control panel is informative only and
+displays the current rate being used by applications. If it shows
+“N/A” then no application is using the interface.
 
 Note that not all features are available at higher sample rates; refer
 to the user manual of your interface for more information.
 
+## Why do my settings keep resetting?
+
+The settings in the ALSA Scarlett Control Panel are automatically
+saved in the interface itself (all series except 1st Gen), so they
+should persist across reboots, power cycles, USB disconnect/reconnect,
+and even across different computers. This includes all routing,
+mixing, and other control panel settings.
+
+If you find that your settings are reverting whenever you plug your
+interface in or power it back on, the most likely cause is the
+`alsa-state` and `alsa-restore` systemd services. These services save
+the state of ALSA controls on system shutdown to
+`/var/lib/alsa/asound.state` and then restore it each time the device
+is plugged in, potentially overwriting your interface’s stored
+settings.
+
+It can be rather annoying, wondering why your device is unusable or
+needs to be reconfigured every time you plug it in or turn it on.
+
+To fix this issue, disable these services:
+
+```sh
+sudo systemctl mask alsa-state
+sudo systemctl mask alsa-restore
+```
+
+You can verify if this is the cause of your issues by:
+
+1. Change some setting that is indicated on the device (the “Inst”
+   setting is a good).
+2. Disconnect USB and notice the state of the setting on the device
+   has not changed.
+3. Power cycle the device and notice the state of the setting on the
+   device has not changed.
+4. Reconnect USB and notice the state of the setting on the device has
+   changed.
+
+If the setting on the device changes at step 4, then the `alsa-state`
+and `alsa-restore` services are the likely cause of your issues.

+This fork of the repo was started so I could write a Debian package manifest for the program. While I successfully made a working package, I had no intention of uploading it to the Debian archives -- I felt that I didn't have enough experience to bother the Debian maintainers with my nonsense. Someone else, however, [did upload one!](https://salsa.debian.org/doge-tech/alsa-scarlett-gui). That version has since been included with the Debian 13 release.
 
-## About
-
-<img src="src/img/alsa-scarlett-gui-logo.png" align="right">
-
-The Focusrite USB audio interfaces are class compliant meaning that
-they work “out of the box” on Linux as audio and MIDI interfaces
-(although on Gen 3/4/Vocaster you need to disable MSD mode first for
-full functionality). However, except for some of the smallest models,
-they have a bunch of proprietary functionality that required a kernel
-driver to be written specifically for those devices.
-
-Unfortunately, actually using this functionality used to be quite an
-awful experience. The existing applications like `alsamixer` and
-`qasmixer` become completely user-hostile with the hundreds of
-controls presented for the Gen 3 18i20. Even the smallest Gen 3 4i4
-interface at last count had 84 ALSA controls.

+# ALSA Scarlett Control Panel
+
+## Scarlett 1st Gen Interfaces
+
+This document describes how to use the ALSA Scarlett Control Panel
+with the Scarlett 1st Gen interfaces:
+
+- Scarlett 1st Gen 6i6, 8i6, 18i6, 18i8, 18i20
+
+Note: The 1st Gen Scarlett Solo, 2i2, and 2i4 have all their controls
+accessible from the front panel of the device, and there are no
+proprietary software controls, so they do not require this control
+panel software.
+
+## Important Driver Limitations
+
+The 1st Gen Scarlett devices have some important limitations in the
+ALSA driver implementation that you should be aware of:
+
+1. **Initial State Detection**: The driver cannot read the current
+   state of hardware controls (this appears to be a limitation of the
+   device firmware). When alsa-scarlett-gui starts, what you see will
+   not reflect the actual state of your device unless the controls
+   have previously been set since startup.
+
+2. **State Update Issues**: The driver only updates the hardware state
+   when it thinks a setting needs to be changed. If the driver
+   incorrectly believes a control is already in the desired state, it
+   won’t actually update the control.
+
+3. **Level Meters**: The driver does not support reading the level
+   meters from the hardware.
+
+4. **Startup Configuration**: The driver is not able to save the
+   current configuration to the non-volatile memory of the device, so
+   you’ll need to reapply the desired configuration each time you
+   restart it (or write your preferred configuration using MixControl
+   on Windows or Mac).
+
+### Recommended Workaround
+
+To ensure your settings are properly applied:
+
+1. Apply a “zero” configuration that sets all controls to values that
+   are *not* what you desire.
+2. Then apply your desired configuration
+
+This two-step process helps ensure that the driver actually sends all
+commands to the hardware. You may want to create a script using
+`alsactl` for this purpose.
+
+## Main Window
+
+The main window is divided into three sections:
+
+- Global Controls
+- Analogue Input Controls
+- Analogue Output Controls
+
+The particular controls available depend on the interface model.
+
+Note that the View menu option lets you open two other windows which
+contain additional controls, described in the following sections:
+- [Routing](#routing)
+- [Mixer](#mixer)
+
+The Levels and Startup windows that are available for later-generation
+interfaces are not available for 1st Gen interfaces due to driver limitations.
+
+### Global Controls
+
+Global controls relate to the operation of the interface as a whole.
+
+#### Clock Source
+
+Clock Source selects where the interface receives its digital clock
+from. If you aren’t using S/PDIF or ADAT inputs, set this to Internal.
+
+#### Sync Status
+
+Sync Status indicates if the interface is locked to a valid digital
+clock. If you aren’t using S/PDIF or ADAT inputs and the status is
+Unlocked, change the Clock Source to Internal.
+
+### Analogue Input Controls
+
+#### Inst
+
+The Inst buttons are used to select between Mic/Line and Instrument
+level/impedance. When plugging in microphones or line-level equipment
+(such as a synthesizer, external preamp, or effects processor) to the
+input, set it to “Line”. The “Inst” setting is for instruments with
+pickups such as guitars.
+
+#### Pad
+
+Enabling Pad engages a 10dB attenuator in the channel, giving you more
+headroom for very hot signals.
+
+#### Gain
+
+The Gain switch selects Low or High gain for the input channel.
+
+### Analogue Output Controls
+
+The analogue output controls let you set the output volume (gain) on
+the analogue line outputs.
+
+Click and drag up/down on the volume dial to change the volume, use
+your arrow keys, Home/End/PgUp/PgDn keys, or use your mouse scroll
+wheel to adjust. You can also double-click on it to quickly toggle the
+volume between off and 0dB.
+
+## Routing
+
+The routing window allows complete control of signal routing between
+the hardware inputs/outputs, internal mixer, and PCM (USB)
+inputs/outputs.
+
+![Routing Window](../img/scarlett-1st-gen-6i6-routing.png)
+
+To manage the routing connections:
+
+- Click and drag from a source to a sink or a sink to a source to
+  connect them. Audio from the source will then be sent to that sink.
+
+- Click on a source or a sink to clear the links connected to that
+  source/sink.
+
+Note that a sink can only be connected to one source, but one source
+can be connected to many sinks. If you want a sink to receive input
+from more than one source, use the mixer inputs and outputs:
+
+- Connect the sources that you want to mix together to mixer inputs
+- Connect mixer outputs to the sinks that you want to receive the
+  mixed audio
+- Use the Mixer window to set the amount of each mixer input that is
+  sent to each mixer output
+
+The Presets menu can be used to clear all connections, or to set up
+common configurations:
+
+- The “Direct” preset sets up the usual configuration using the
+  interface as a regular audio interface by connecting:
+
+  - all Hardware Inputs to PCM Inputs
+  - all PCM Outputs to Hardware Outputs
+
+- The “Preamp” preset connects all Hardware Inputs to Hardware
+  Outputs.
+
+- The “Stereo Out” preset connects PCM 1 and 2 Outputs to pairs of
+  Hardware Outputs.
+
+## Mixer
+
+If you use the Routing window to connect Sources to Mixer Inputs and
+Mixer Outputs to Sinks, then you can use the Mixer window to set the
+amount of each Mixer Input that is sent to each Mixer Output using a
+matrix of controls.
+
+Click and drag up/down on the gain controls to adjust, or use your
+mouse scroll wheel. You can also double-click on the control to
+quickly toggle between off and 0dB.

+Sync Status indicates if the interface is locked to a valid digital
+clock. If you aren’t using S/PDIF or ADAT inputs and the Sync Status
+is Unlocked, change the Clock Source to Internal.
+
+#### Sample Rate
+
+Sample Rate is informative only, and displays the current sample rate
+if the interface is currently in use. In ALSA, the sample rate is set
+by the application using the interface, which is usually a sound
+server such as PulseAudio, JACK, or PipeWire.
+
+#### Speaker Switching
+
+Speaker Switching lets you swap between two pairs of monitoring
+speakers very easily.
+
+### Analogue Input Controls
+
+#### Input Select
+
+The “Input Select” control allows you to choose which channel the
+hardware 48V, Inst, Air, Auto, and Safe buttons control.
+
+#### Link
+
+The “Link” control links the 48V, Inst, Air, Auto, and Safe controls
+together so that they control a stereo pair of channels
+simultaneously.
+
+#### Gain
+
+The “Gain” controls adjust the input gain for the selected channel.
+Click and drag up/down on the control to adjust the gain, use your
+mouse scroll wheel, or click the control to select it and use the
+arrow keys, Page Up, Page Down, Home, and End keys.
+
+#### Autogain
+
+When the “Autogain” control is enabled, the interface will listen to
+the input signal for ten seconds and automatically adjust the gain to
+get the best signal level. When autogain is not running, the
+most-recent autogain exit status is shown below the “Autogain”
+control.
+
+#### Safe
+
+“Safe” mode is a feature that automatically reduces the gain if the
+signal is too loud. This can be useful to prevent clipping.
+
+#### Instrument
+
+The Inst button(s) are used to select between Mic/Line and Instrument
+level/impedance. When plugging in microphones or line-level equipment
+(such as a synthesizer, external preamp, or effects processor) to the
+input, set it to “Line”. The “Inst” setting is for instruments with
+pickups such as guitars.
+
+#### Air
+
+The Scarlett 3rd Gen introduced Air mode which transformed your
+recordings and inspired you while making music by boosting the
+signal’s high-end. The 4th Gen interfaces now call that “Air Presence”
+and add a new mode “Air Presence+Drive” which boosts mid-range
+harmonics in your sound.
+
+#### Phantom Power (48V)
+
+Turning the “48V” switch on sends “Phantom Power” to the XLR
+microphone input. This is required for some microphones (such as
+condensor microphones), and damaging to some microphones (particularly
+vintage ribbon microphones).
+
+### Analogue Output Controls
+
+The analogue output controls are a bit sparse. More controls are
+coming soon.
+
+#### Volume Knobs
+
+The volume knobs control the volume of the analogue outputs. The two
+channels of the stereo pairs are shown separately, but are internally
+linked together.
+
+#### Mute and Dim
+
+The speaker icon buttons are “mute” and “dim” (reduce volume) buttons,
+corresponding to the front-panel buttons on the interface (although
+only the 18i20 has a physical dim button).
+
+## Routing and Mixing
+
+The routing window allows (almost) complete control of signal routing
+between the hardware inputs/outputs, internal mixer, and PCM (USB)
+inputs/outputs.
+
+The routing and mixing capabilities of the big 4th Gen interfaces are
+the same in concept as the older interfaces, but the mixer inputs are
+fixed and not shown in the routing window as there are too many to
+sensibly display.
+
+From the main window, open the Routing window with the View → Routing
+menu option or pressing Ctrl-R:
+
+![4th Gen 16i16 Routing](../img/scarlett-4th-gen-16i16-routing.png)
+
+To manage the routing connections:
+
+- Click and drag from a source to a sink or a sink to a source to
+  connect them. Audio from the source will then be sent to that sink.
+
+- Click on a source or a sink to clear the links connected to that
+  source/sink.
+
+Note that a sink can only be connected to one source, but one source
+can be connected to many sinks. If you want a sink to receive input
+from more than one source, connect the sinks to mixer outputs:
+
+- Connect mixer outputs to the sinks that you want to receive the
+  mixed audio
+- Use the Mixer window to set the amount of each mixer input that is
+  sent to each mixer output
+
+The Presets menu can be used to clear all connections, or to set up
+common configurations:
+
+- The “Direct” preset sets up the usual configuration using the
+  interface as a regular audio interface by connecting:
+
+  - all Hardware Inputs to PCM Inputs
+  - all PCM Outputs to Hardware Outputs
+
+- The “Preamp” preset connects all Hardware Inputs to Hardware
+  Outputs.
+
+- The “Stereo Out” preset connects PCM 1 and 2 Outputs to pairs of
+  Hardware Outputs.
+
+To adjust the routing:
+
+- Click and drag from a source to a sink or a sink to a source to
+  connect them. Audio from the source will then be sent to that sink.
+
+- Click on a source or a sink to clear the links connected to that
+  source/sink.
+
+Note that a sink can only be connected to one source, but one source
+can be connected to many sinks.
+
+To adjust the mixer output levels:
+
+1) Open the mixer window with the main window View → Mixer menu
+   option, or press Ctrl-M.
+
+2) Mixer levels can be adjusted with your keyboard or mouse in the
+   same way as the [Gain Controls](#gain).
+
+## Levels
+
+The meters show the levels seen by the interface at every routing
+source as well as the analogue outputs. Open this window by selecting
+the View → Levels menu option or pressing Ctrl-L.
+
+![Levels](../img/window-levels-4th-gen-big.png)
+
+Look at this in conjunction with the routing window to understand
+which meter corresponds to which source or sink.
+
+Thanks for reading this far! If you appreciate the hundreds of hours
+of work that went into the kernel driver, the control panel, and this
+documentation, please consider supporting the author with a
