Rme Babyface Silver Edition

The RME Babyface Silver Edition has the latest 192kHz AD/DA- converters, two reference class microphone preamps, SteadyClock, and RME's premier analog circuit design. Babyface Silver includes new TotalMix FX, a TotalMix on steroids, with tons of new features, improvements and 3-band parametric EQs, plus added echo and reverb: anything you need right out of the box and with near zero latency!The Babyface uses RME's Hammerfall USB audio core from the Fireface UC - another milestone in low latency audio interfaces, and will give you outstanding performance and top-quality sound in an ultra-portable, nicely designed and attractively shaped enclosure.Analog I/OThe balanced XLR I/Os and the TRS phones outputs use RME's analog circuit design, therefore guarantee outstandingly low noise and distortion values. The latest generation AD/DA converters provide sample rates up to 192kHz with a signal-to-noise ratio of up to 115dBA. Due to its efficient jitter reduction, SteadyClock guarantees pristine sound quality, even when clocking to an external digital source.High-End Mic PreampsBoth digitally controlled preamps provide individually switchable 48V phantom power; gain of up to 60dB, adjustable in steps of 3dB over a range of 51dB; exceptional EIN performance even at low amplification settings; and extremely low THD+N values let these preamps surpass those of other devices that cost several times the price of the Babyface. All level settings are 100% recallable by the setup software and can be comfortably adjusted directly at the unit.Digital I/OThe incredible feature set includes an optical TOSLINK I/O, usable as ADAT port with SMUX support or SPDIF optical at up to 192 kHz. In combination with an ADAT converter, like RME ADI-8 QS or OctaMic II, the Babyface provides an incredible amount of 10 analog input and 12 output channels.Phones OutputThe additional headphone output, driven from a separate and dedicated DA converter, delivers the full sonic experience of up to 192 kHz and is available not only directly at the unit but also at the breakout cable. The phones level is easy to adjust and control with a simple click of the select button and the main volume knob.Instrument InputDirectly plug in your guitar or other instruments by switching one input to Hi-Z input mode. Recording any instrument becomes a breeze and does not require any other hardware.MIDI I/OThe integrated MIDI I/O completes the list of features and turns the Babyface into a creative audio system of universal usability. Do what you want - wherever you want!Perfect ControlWith one main control knob and two single buttons the elegant Babyface acts as a perfectly designed direct desktop control for all typical studio tasks: volume control, reference volume store and recall, volume dim, input selection/switchi ng, input gain control - quick and easy access to all functions has been a major point during design and development. The LED bars serve as both level and gain meters, visually supporting the precise control of all inputs, outputs and headphone levels directly at the interface.USB Made by RMEThe Babyface provides RME's unmatched USB pro audio technology for revolutionary ultra-low latencies on Mac and PC, by using two different optimized firmware versions for both operating systems. Like other RME USB 2.0* interfaces, the Babyface provides revolutionary ultra-low latencies even with multiple channels. The Babyface Silver Edition achieves latency values down to 48 samples on Windows and 14 samples on Mac OS X.*** The Babyface is compatible to USB 3 chipsets.** Minimal latencies are not guaranteed as they depend on the specific computer and application.* Minimal latencies are not guaranteed as they depend on the specific computer and application.Full mobilityThe ultra-portable Babyface Sivler Edition has been designed for bus-powered operation (some systems might require a special two USB connector cable - included). This turns the Babyface into the perfect partner for mo
