MADI to DAW
RME presents the MADIface XT II a 394-channel 192kHz USB 3.0 audio interface with comprehensive connectivity and control options. Compared to its predecessor MADIface XT, the MADIface XT II features updated digital and analog circuitry and surpasses the first generation with significantly improved analog and digital performance.
Packed with professional features, including SteadyClock FS, a powerful DSP, USB 3.0 (full 394 channel I/O Class Compliant ready), TotalMix FX with the latest Room EQ feature, and support for the Advanced Remote Control USB (available separately).
The MADIface XT was the world's first USB 3.0 audio interface at the time of its release - and impressed with its combination of an extremely high channel count, comprehensive connectivity and a compact desktop housing. With two practical mic/line preamps, two balanced XLR line outputs, a stereo line headphone output, a variety of digital signal options, as well as an additional PCI Express connection, the MADIface XT left nothing to be desired in terms of connectivity.
Analog Records
The successor MADIface XT II maintains this successful formula and surpasses the signal values of its predecessor in numerous areas. Among other things, the MADIface XT II convinces with a higher signal-to-noise ratio and a lower THD value during AD conversion.
Furthermore, the maximum balanced line output level of the XLR line outputs has been increased from +15dBu to +24dBu. The stereo headphone output of the MADIface XT II also delivers a significantly higher output level of +19dBu and, with an output impedance of 1Ω, significantly more power than its predecessor.
Digital Circuit Board
On the updated digital board, the previous analog mini-DIN socket for remote control of individual functions has been replaced by an ARC USB remote port, which enables comprehensive control of the MADIface XT II with the optional ARC USB.
Powerful Applications for Mixing, Monitoring and Measurement included
The MADIface XT II comes with the TotalMix FX DSP mixer offering comprehensive routing and monitoring options, as well as the DigiCheck Analyzer allowing to measure and analyze the digital data feed in both directions with maximum precision. TotalMix FX can completely replace an external mixer, enabling the creation of multiple latency-free monitor mixes with EQ, Dynamics, Reverb and Delay for any outputs, incl. main monitors and headphone mixes for musicians.
USB 3 Class Compliant Audio
The MADIface XT II operates in two different modes: driver-based USB 3 and Class Compliant. The Class Compliant mode is a standard that is natively supported by operating systems like Windows, Mac OSX and Linux distributions.
