RME MADI-PRO 128-Channel Bus Powered USB MADI Interface

The MADIface USB 128-Channel USB Interface from RME provides MADI I/O via USB 2.0 ports while supporting the format's full 64 channels for recording and playback, on both Mac and Windows. The unit's two inputs can be used for full redundancy operation or used simultaneously for full 128 channel input and output access, mixed and routed by RME's TotalMix software. Without a computer, the MADIface USB provides bi-directional format conversion and can function as an active repeater.

Features:

• MADIface USB offers several operation modes when used with a Mac or Windows computer: 64 Channel Mix, Redundancy mode, 128 Channel Mix and a straight routing mode.
• The option Disable TotalMix completely disables TotalMix, the unit's internal mixer and routing matrix. All input and output data is going straight to record/coming from playback, with no mixing or routing involved. In this mode the outputs are mirrored, carrying the same signal.
• In 64 Channel Mix mode TotalMix shows 64 input, playback and output channels. All settings in TotalMix use the data from one MADI input port, and send identical data to both MADI output ports. The currently active MADI input port can be configured in the Settings dialog
• The option AutoSelect activates an automatic input selection. Using both inputs at the same time, AutoSelect puts the device into Seamless Redundancy mode. The MADIface USB will switch to the other input in real-time if the current one fails.
• In 128 Channel Mix mode record and playback is still limited to 64 channels, with the current input selected in the Settings dialog. But the other input is also available through TotalMix, and the output signal is not mirrored, but separated, with TotalMix having 128 output channels. Applications like independent mix output, monitoring and serial pass-through of the second source are just a few clicks away
• SteadyClock as well as RME's well known MADI compatibility ensure operation with other devices. MIDI over MADI technology may be used to remote-control other MADI devices. DIGICheck, an included complete audio analyzing suite, supports the user under Mac OS X and Windows us functions of the data stream
