RME

German manufacturer RME maintain their high reputation for quality A-D/D-A interfacing with this eight-channel device, which may be run at 24-bit, 96kHz operation if desired.

This modest-looking box is among the best-performing two-way converters available, and boasts a huge array of thoughtful features.

RME's latest PCI soundcard is their first to support 192kHz sample rates, and offers a different balance of features compared with their existing Hammerfall cards.

This cost-effective four-channel microphone preamp with flexible powering options is well-suited to location recording.

RME have ploughed all of their considerable interface-making know-how into the Fireface UFX+, and the results are impressive.

Can I use the headphone output (Output 9-10) on an RME Fireface 800 audio interface to feed a click track to an IEM (In-ear Monitor) transmitter for a drummer?

RME's Fireface 800 brings together all of the company's expertise in developing audio hardware for computers, mic preamps and converters into one highly desirable unit. But can you really fit so much functionality into one interface without cutting corners?

Until now, MADI interfacing has been restricted to high-end digital desks, but RME's affordable hardware brings it to the project studio market. If you need a lot of inputs or outputs within an ASIO environment, their soundcard and 64-channel MADI-to-ADAT converter could be the perfect choice.

Two new half-rack boxes offer considerable operational flexibility and pristine sound in both the analogue and digital domains.
