Product overview

About this model

Professional MADI Connectivity Over USB The compact MADIface USB provides MADI I/O over USB 2.0 while supporting the format's full 64 channels for recording and playback, under Mac and Windows. Both inputs can be used for full redundancy operation. Optionally both MADI I/Os can be operated simultaneously for full 128-channel input and output access, mixed and routed by TotalMix. Even without a computer, the compact box delivers extraordinary bi-directional format converter and active repeater functionality. Compact and Bus-Powered for Portable Workflows Thanks to its rugged build and bus-powered design, the MADIface USB is both reliable and simple to operate. With its small footprint, the MADIface USB is the perfect desktop solution for connecting MADI equipment to any Mac or PC. Flexible Modes for Any Routing Scenario 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 flexible internal mixer and routing matrix. All input and output data goes straight to record/comes 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 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. TotalMix FX for Full Routing Control Like all the latest RME interfaces, the MADIface USB 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 routed to any hardware outputs. The MADIface does not have a DSP, so there are no onboard effects. Still, it includes a dedicated Control Room section with Talkback, Main/Phones, fader groups, mute groups, complete remote controllability via Mackie or OSC protocol and more.
