Features and Operation Modes

MADI face 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 Total Mix completely disables Total Mix,the unit's flexible internal mixer and routing matrix. All input and output data is going straight to record/coming from playback, with no mixing or routing involved. In this mode the outputs are mirrored, carrying the same signal.

In 64 Channel Mix mode Total Mix shows 64 input, playback and output channels. All settings in Total Mix 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 Auto Select activates an automatic input selection.Using both inputs at the same time, Auto Select puts the device into Seamless Redundancy mode. The MADI face 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 Total Mix, and the output signal is not mirrored, but separated, with Total Mix having 128 output channels. Applications like independent mix output, monitoring and serial pass-through of the second source are just a few clicks away.

Steady Clock as well as RME's well known MADI compatibility ensure hassle-free operation with other devices. MIDI over MADI technology maybe used to remote-control other MADI devices. DIGI Check, an included complete audio analyzing suite, supports the user under Mac OS X and Windows.
