The Fireface 800 combines the latest and also proven technologies of previous RME products with the fastest FireWire technology. Analog technology of the ADI-8 converters, microphone technology of the OctaMic, TotalMix technology of the Hammerfall DSP series, years of experience in programming of efficient and reliable drivers, up to complete support from DIGICheck - only the best of the best, and even a bit more. The Fireface 800 offers the best worked out instrument input that could ever be found in an audio interface, a high power headphone output and signal-to-noise ratios of 119 dBA. RMEs Fireface 800 is seen as reference by users and editors, when talking about FireWire audio and mobile recording.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful: The best firewire interface in this price range I am aware of, By Amazon Verified Purchase This review is from: RME Fireface 800 Hi-Performance FW Audio Interface, 24 Bit/192 kHz, 56-channel (Electronics) This interface is ridiculous (in the best of ways of course). Prior to this I was running audio (Emu SP1200, Akai MPC 2500 and a microKorg) into a Mackie Onyx Satellite. Once I stepped up to this unit, however, sounds opened up like crazy. And things didn't sound in any way terrible before. I'm assuming it has to do with this things A/D converters; this thing really sounds incredible. I was able to hear a level of depth in my audio material that plain and simply was inaudible before. This thing has amazing clarity. The included software patch bay interface may take some getting used to for some, but once you do, it is very versatile. With it you can route signals to and from your computer via the TRS, XLR & lightpipe inputs. You can also mute, solo, and link channel faders together. This last function is great, as it allows you to move the position of all linked faders relative to one another. You can save more than enough configurations as well. The faders are a bit on... Read more NICE!, By This review is from: RME Fireface 800 Hi-Performance FW Audio Interface, 24 Bit/192 kHz, 56-channel (Electronics) Not much to say that hasn't been said, but RME did their homework regarding what engineers needed before they made this piece! Almost every 24-28 i/o firewire interface that has come out SINCE this has tried their best to copy this unit, and still can't quite do it! Along with Metric Halo, RME makes the BEST firewire/usb interfaces out there. Rock Solid., By This review is from: RME Fireface 800 Hi-Performance FW Audio Interface, 24 Bit/192 kHz, 56-channel (Electronics) There's too much to say about this unit, so I will keep it short. It sounds great, it has tons of I/O, it's drivers are insanely stable, and so far I've never had a single problem with the unit. The Totalmix DSP software brings in a whole new level of possibilities for a computer based audio interface. Throw in Digicheck --a free analysis and metering software-- and you have a nice bit of kit. |
