RME OCTAMIC II 8-Channel Microphone Preamplifier

The OctaMic II provides 8-Channel 192 kHz / 24 bit AD conversion with eight hi-class microphone and line pre-amplification channels, featuring a combination of sophisticated components and approved RME technology.

Features:

• The balanced TRS inputs of the Neutrik Combo XLR jacks are phantom power-free and can be operated as real line inputs too. The improved design of the input circuits allows for a maximum input level of +21 dBu with a convenient gain range from 6 dB up to 60 dB.
• Improved signal to noise ratio (SNR) ADC 107.5 dB
• Improved THD, especially at higher gains
• Optimised heat dissipation by a new and larger housing with improved convection
• Internal wide range power supply with line filter, insensitive to voltage fluctuations
• Super-stable, short circuit proof 48 V phantom power
