RME - DIGIFACE-AVB

Description

Developed by RME, Digiface AVB is a glance into the future of audio network technology. The device uses AVB, an open protocol developed by the IEEE, to transfer up to 256 channels of audio between PC and audio network. An additional headphone output allows high quality monitoring.

New Ways to Transport Audio
RME's Digiface AVB showcases how audio can be transferred from the PC into the network and back using the AVB protocol stack. While Apple's Mac OS has support for AVB already built in, the Digiface AVB also brings this capability Windows based PCs. Equipped with USB 3, it allows you to stream 128 channels of audio with sampling rates up to 192kHz into the AVB network and another 128 channels back.

TotalMix FX and TotalMix Remote
Like all the latest RME interfaces, the Digiface Series also includes the powerful digital real-time mixer TotalMix FX. It allows for practically unlimited mixing and routing operations, with all inputs and playback channels simultaneously, to any hardware outputs.

The Digiface Series includes a dedicated Control Room section with Talkback, Main/Phones, fader groups, mute groups, complete remote controllability via Mackie or OSC protocol, and much more. The Digiface Series does not support DSP based effects (FX) like EQ or reverb.

Additionally RME's latest software, TotalMix Remote, enhances the power of RME interfaces by enabling remote control via iOS, PC or Mac.
