I do not know. Please try it and report your findings:-)

Do you really need PatchMix? Maybe you could de-install it and allow
Linrad to connect directly to the driver? 

In case that is not possible, perhaps 4Front technology, OSS, has
drivers for Windows now. If not, you could make a new partition
and install Linux. As far as I can understand, ALSA has a driver
for the EMU1212.
