RME Digiface USB Overview

The Digiface USB from RME is a portable USB 2.0 audio interface designed to quickly and efficiently transfer 24-bit / 192 kHz digital audio data in ADAT and S/PDIF format to Windows and Mac computers. Lightweight (at 0.49 lb), compact, and bus-powered, it is well suited for mobile recording/mixing applications or remote monitoring solutions.

The Digiface USB offers four optical ADAT / S/PDIF I/Os and a high-quality analog line/phone stereo output via a 1/4" TRS jack, for a total of 32 inputs and 34 outputs when using ADAT optical. It also comes with the real-time mixer software TotalMix which allows you to mix and route all inputs and playback channels simultaneously, to any hardware outputs. The software features a dedicated Control Room section with Talkback, Main/Phones, fader groups, mute groups, complete remote controllability via Mackie or OSC protocol, and more.

The included DIGICheck utility software provides a suite of tools to test, measure, and analyze digital audio streams with a high-precision peak/RMS level meter, a spectral analyzer, a vector audio scope, and more.

Will the Digiface work as USB class-compliant ...

Will the Digiface work as USB class-compliant audio interface for Akai Force with firmware 3.1?
Asked by: Philipp
The Akai Force USB ports are for using USB drives for loading samples. You can also use the included cable to use the Akai Force as an audio interface for your computer. The Akai Force does not have ADAT I/O for compatibility with the RME Digiface. The RME Digiface would require a USB power source if you wanted to be able to run it without a computer.

Is Digiface USB, USB class compliant?

Is Digiface USB, USB class compliant?
Asked by: Philipp
Yes it is: The Digiface USB has a Class Compliant mode. Like any audio interface the Digiface USB should have a data transmission to the computer as undisturbed as possible. The easiest way to guarantee this is to connect it to its own bus, which should be no big problem as most USB 2.0 interfaces are a double bus design. A check in the Device Manager can be done as follows: &frac34; Connect the Digiface USB to a USB port &frac34; Start the Device Manager, View set to Devices by Connection &frac34; Select ACPI x86-based PC, Microsoft ACPI-Compliant System, expand PCI Bus
