Products

Fireface UC

36-Channel high-speed USB 2.0 Audio Interface

The compact Fireface UC has been uncompromisingly optimized for highest performance under Windows and Mac OS. Based on a newly developed RME Hammerfall core the Fireface UC provides revolutionary ultra-low latencies even with multiple channels.

Artists

Mike Cerda, MD for Latin artist «Maluma» uses RME’s Fireface Interface

Engineer/Artist Mike Cerdá is Music Director, Keyboardist, Playback engineer, DJ, Programmer, and Guitar Player for the Latin Grammy Award-winning artist «Maluma».

Philip Albus “Klangarchiv Gießen”

How to catch a ghost? German musician and sonic experimenter Philip Albus discusses making field recordings and impulse responses with the RME Fireface UC and Fireface 800 audio interfaces.

Stick Aficionado & Producer Kevin Keith Selects RME’s Fireface UC for New EP ‘Rebirth’

From creating music for video games to recording artists at his own studio, Keith’s Fireface UC interfaces handle it all

Connectivity and Features

2 x XLR/TRS Mic/Inst/Line

2 x Line/Inst Input

1 x Phones Output

1 x Word Clock I/O

DC-coupled Outputs (Phones)

The new interface not only makes the leading-edge RME Fireface technology available for every PC and Mac computer, it also provides a unique low-latency concept and a high grade of performance and compatibility, making the dream of the perfect and future-proof mobile pro audio recording solution come true.

The Fireface UC features all of the proven RME analog and digital circuitry. It is the only device in its class with active jitter suppression, enhanced stand-alone functionality and complete controllability from the front panel, highly flexible I/Os in professional quality, and an unsurpassed 648-channel matrix router — at sample rates of up to 192 kHz.

Integrated DSP mixer

All inputs and outputs can be freely mixed, routed, and distributed with RME´s TotalMix FX software. Up to 9 totally independent stereo submixes can be set up. Every output channel, and every submix channel can be recorded directly and without external cable loops. TotalMix can be completely MIDI remote controlled. The DSP-based hardware calculates RMS and Peak levels for all channels, without causing any significant CPU load.

Analog I/O

Eight analog inputs and outputs (all balanced, except outputs 7/8) with software controlled reference levels (-10 dBV, +4 dBu, Lo/HiGain), realized discretely in the analog domain, ensure highest dynamic range and fidelity. Inputs 5 to 8 on the rear feature RME’s proven level references, -10 dBV, +4 dBu and Lo Gain can be selected in the settings dialog, equivalent to +2 dBV, +13 dBu and +19 dBu for digital full scale. The same applies to the balanced rear analog outputs 1 to 6. The hi-power phones output offers high volumes even with low-impedance headphones.

Preamps

The Fireface UC features 2 balanced microphone inputs with a digitally controlled input stage, individually switchable 48V phantom power, and Neutrik Combo connectors for XLR and TRS. These can also be used as additional line inputs. A pre-amplification of up to 65 dB (adjustable in 1 dB-steps over a range of 55 dB), exceptional EIN (Equivalent Input Noise) performance even at low pre amplification settings, and extremely low THD+N let these preamps surpass many reference devices. All level settings are 100% reproducible and can also be comfortably adjusted by software. Inputs 3 and 4 are flexible universal balanced inputs. They operate exactly like inputs 5 to 8 on the rear and can be adjusted to accept standard studio input levels (+4 dBu, LoGain). The input impedance can be switched from line (10 kOhm) to instrument (470 kOhm), and offers an additional analog input amplification of up to 18 dB in steps of 0.5 dB.

Digital I/O

One ADAT I/O provides digital connection to mixers and converters. In combination with an ADI-8 DS/QS or OctaMic II, there are up to 16 analog inputs (respectively 12 @ 96 kHz). The coaxial SPDIF I/O (up to 192 kHz) is fully AES/EBU compatible. SPDIF can also be accessed through the optical I/O.

Word Clock & MIDI

A Word Clock input and output plus two MIDI I/Os (special breakout cable included) complete the list of features and turn the Fireface UC into an entire audio system of the highest quality.

More Features:

• Sample rates up to 192 kHz on all I/Os (including 2 ADAT channels with SMUX4)
• Two digitally controlled Mic Preamps in high-end quality
• Two balanced universal inputs for line and instrument signals
• SteadyClock for maximum jitter suppression and clock refresh
• Enhanced stand-alone operation with rotary encoder and front panel display
• TotalMix: 648-channel mixer with 42-bit internal resolution
• 54 Level Meter Peak/RMS, hardware-calculated

* Minimal latencies are not guaranteed as they depend on the specific computer and application.
