Well suited to any recording situation, you can record and edit on the road, in the hotel, on the airplane, or wherever inspiration hits. Use 3 LIO-8s chained together for 24 tracks of live concert recording with processing on all channels in 3 rack spaces. Location sound engineers can now capture the moment — anywhere, anytime.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eWhen you’re done recording, use the LIO-8 in the studio as an extremely high quality audio interface to transfer your tracks into a DAW. You’ll be amazed at the sound of this box! And weighing only 6 pounds, and a little larger than a laptop, you can be the first one out of the gig, with no hassle.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe LIO-8’s archival grade inputs and outputs, coupled with Metric Halo’s exclusive Character processing, provide flexibility and sound quality unavailable on any other interface. You can transition from a wire-with-gain to a gooey tube pre with one click of the mouse, and every input can have the right character for the material you are recording.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe LIO-8 is the only unit in its class with an on-board processing engine that supports fully instantiable processing, allowing you to use Metric Halo’s world-renowned signal processing effects without sacrificing your computer’s processing power or introducing any additional latency in your monitor path. From MIOStrip to HaloVerb, the LIO-8 comes with the 2d plug-in package that provides basic production processing. If you need more, you can add the +DSP package. And remember, this one rack space audio interface has the ability to run entirely from any DC power source (16 V - 30 V), making it truly and completely mobile.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eOrganically Scalable\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eA unique feature of the Mobile I\/O system is that MIO’s work well individually or as a group.

Adding a unit to the system organically increases the DSP power of the system, so that your DSP always scales with your I\/O. Break your system up for small gigs when playing out or add the units of your mates to build a huge system when required. By standardizing on the Mobile I\/O platform, each member of the band can have ultimate quality while working alone, and the band can have huge track counts when playing together.

All in all the Fireface UCX is the new compact-sized dream interface, created with care for every detail, and a new premium solution for any desktop and live usage, without compromises in sound, stability and ultra-low latency operation.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eAnalog I\/O\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe UCX provides 8 analog I\/O in a very flexible combination:\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e8 Inputs. On the rear: 4 balanced TRS. On the front: 2 XLR inputs with Mic\/Line preamps (65 dB Gain) and 2 Hi-Z capable TRS Line\/Instrument inputs..\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e8 Outputs. On the rear: 6 balanced TRS outputs. On the front: One additional TRS stereo phones (playback channels 7\/8). The high power phones output offers high volumes even with high-impedance headphones.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eSound Quality. Equipped with a new 2011 A\/D and D\/A high-performance converter design all I\/Os operate at up to 192 kHz. The AD\/DA conversion supersedes the outstanding technical specifications of the Fireface UC\/400 with an impressive 114 dBA dynamic range on both record and playback. The advanced multi-bit converter architecture guarantees excellent S\/N and THD specs across a wide analog level range. In the best RME tradition and product philosophy, the UCX converters and preamps have no characteristic \"sound\" of their own. They neither add nor remove anything, but capture the original signal just as it is.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eDue to its efficient jitter reduction, RME's superior SteadyClockTM finalizes the state-of-the-art AD\/DA conversion, even when clocking to an external digital source.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eLow Latency Converters\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAll analog I\/Os use a low latency converter design with impressive 14 samples for the ADC, and 7 samples for the DAC, independent of the used sample rate. These values are about a quarter of the Fireface UC\/400 (43\/28), and even outperform much more expensive devices. A technical breakthrough that reduces the overall latency of timing critical applications, in live situations, and in computer-based recording studios. The converter latency is so low (0.4 ms at 48 kHz) that it can be ignored, turning analog digital monitoring into real analog-style monitoring!\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eProfessional Level Support\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eA great converter needs to support the common studio levels for the perfect adaptation to other analog equipment without loosing headroom. Like all other RME devices the UCX supports the common professional studio levels: -10 dBV, +4 dBu, Lo \/ HiGain. The software-controlled reference levels, realized discretely in the analog domain, ensure highest dynamic range and fidelity.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eInputs 3 to 8: -10 dBV, +4 dBu and Lo Gain (adjustable in two groups - channels 3\/4 and 5 to 8).\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eOutputs 1 to 8: -10 dBV, +4 dBu and Hi Gain (adjustable in two groups - channels 1 to 6 and 7\/8).\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e   \u003cp\u003eAll outputs can be used for ASIO Direct Monitoring purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eQuality over quantity . The UCX provides two high-end mic and instrument preamps - built right into the front.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eLike the famous UFX ones, both preamps use core technology of RME's Micstasy. A high-end preamp for supreme sonic demands and critical applications, like professional recordings of classical and acoustic music. The outstanding preamp design boasts extremely low distortion, excellent signal to noise ratio and a perfectly flat frequency response. A premium solution for transmitting and amplifying any audio source truly unchanged, be it high-level stage or typical studio signals, lower level and high-impedance instruments, or dynamic, condenser and ribbon microphones.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe digitally controlled gain of up to 65 dB, adjustable in steps of 1 dB over a range of 55 dB, is individually set for each preamp with the encoder knob on the front or in TotalMix FX on the host computer. All level settings are 100% reproducible and can also be adjusted using a MIDI remote controller.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEach channel can be individually switched to 48V phantom power. LEDs for signal, clip and activated phantom power give a complete overview on the unit's status.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe two TRS inputs on the front will alternatively operate as Hi-Z inputs. Directly plug in up to two guitars or other instruments - no other hardware is required.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003ch3\u003eAutoSet\u003c\/h3\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe UCX offers a unique RME feature which was previously available only in the high-end microphone preamp Micstasy and the UFX. Usually a limiter is used during the recording to prevent clipping of the A\/D converter stage. But analog processing would not only spoil the excellent technical specifications of the UCX mic preamps but also alter the original sound.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThanks to digitally controlled gain the UCX can reduce the gain automatically, thus providing perfect protection from overload with no degradation of the audio signal, which does not have to pass any additional electronic circuitry. Additionally AutoSet does not cause any of the control noises known from usual limiters. SNR and THD stay completely unchanged.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eExample: In a recording session, the recording engineer asks the vocalist or guitarist to sing or play a reference part and sets the UCX preamp gain to an unusual high level (e. g. 50 dB). AutoSet will automatically reduce the gain when the level reaches -6 dBFS. The reduction is done in a musical way, based on the intensity and duration of the input signal. Manual gain adjustment becomes obsolete most of the time, but the gain can still be set manually. AutoSet can be switched on for each of the 4 front panel mic and instrument preamp channels individually.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eSPDIF: The UCX provides a coaxial SPDIF I\/O working at up to 192 kHz.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eADAT: One 8-channel ADAT I\/O expands the UCX by 8 channels available simultaneously with the analog channels. They can be used to connect an 8-channel AD\/DA converter, a mixing console, or to insert an effect device. The ADAT I\/O supports sample rates with up to 192 kHz (S\/MUX4). Using an external converter like the ADI-8 QS, the UCX will provide 16 analog inputs and outputs, 12 with a sample rate of 96 kHz, and still 10 at 192 kHz.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eSPDIF: The ADAT I\/O can be used as optical SPDIF I\/O, making the UCX connections even more flexible.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eWord Clock \u0026amp; MIDI: A word clock input and output (BNC) with switchable termination plus two MIDI I\/Os on a breakout cable complete the I\/O list and turn the Fireface UCX into a professional audio system with universal usability.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eFireface UCX The UCX provides the complete effects engine of the Fireface UFX - all effects are available at all sample rates.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe DSP-based TotalMix mixer supports fully independent routing and mixing of all 18 input and playback channels to all 18 physical outputs. Up to 9 totally independent stereo submixes plus a comprehensive Control Room section offer unrivaled monitoring capabilities and unsurpassed routing flexibility.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eAnd there is more: TotalMix FX delivers hardware mixing\/routing with lots of new features and a highly improved usability.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eEvery input and output channel comes with a luxury feature set, comparable to a full-scale digital console. The effects per channel include 3-band parametric EQ, adjustable Low Cut, Auto Level, Compressor, Expander, MS Processing and phase reversal. The Reverb and Echo effects unit is available for all channels by way of a stereo send and return bus. The UCX easily surpasses the competition by offering all these effects even at 192 kHz operation.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eTwo DSPs ensure an impressive performance even in extreme applications. As usual with RME, TotalMix is available with all channels at all sample rates, completely unlimited. The second dedicated DSP only renders effects, and therefore always has sufficient resources. For example, at 48 kHz 36 EQs, 36 Low Cuts, 26 Compressors and Echo can be activated. With activated Reverb and Echo still 36 EQs, 36 Low Cuts and 16 Compressors are available.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe FX-DSP uses automatic overload surveillance. As soon as no effect can be added anymore the TotalMix surface will clearly signal this condition. When changing to higher sample rates the UCX automatically deactivates all effects that exceed the DSP's performance - the DSP will never be overloaded. This also prevents any possible damage to loudspeakers due to distortion.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe complete effects section not only adds a lot of flexibility to the recording chain, but makes latency burdened software dispensable. TotalMix can easily replace any external mixer, e. g. to create different latency-free monitoring mixes with EQ and Reverb for the main studio monitors and the headphone of the vocalist(s) in the recording room.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eFurthermore, the DSP hardware calculates RMS and Peak levels for all 54 level meters, so there is zero CPU load on the host.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eThe main functions of TotalMix can be remote controlled via MIDI with any Mackie Control compatible controller.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RME","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449917239399,"sku":"22388","price":1599.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/rme-fireface-ucx_22388_1_1_2bee6d26-ac75-4882-843d-3105dc5bb447.jpg?v=1787090945"},{"product_id":"universal-audio-apollo-firewire-quad-interface","title":"Universal Audio Apollo FireWire QUAD Audio Interface","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eUniversal Audio Apollo FireWire\u003c\/strong\u003e is one of the world’s most popular professional audio interfaces — delivering the sound, feel, and flow of analog recording to music creators everywhere.
