It continues RME's long tradition of designing compact high-end interfaces, packing into a half-rack size unit what usually would be spread out over two or three 19 inch panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eIn doing this the Fireface UCX marks a new packing record: 300 electronic components more than inside the already well-stocked Fireface UC! In a tremendous effort RME packed once again all the latest technologies, introduced with the award winning flagship UFX, plus a bunch of newly developed ones, into a half 19 inch housing with full mobile usability.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is an awesome combination of RME's most successful products: Fireface UFX, Firefaces UC\/400 and Babyface. The Fireface UCX is not just a smaller version of the smash hit UFX, with the HFX-core, the preamps and the complete effects engine. The UCX continues the tradition of RME's tremendously successful compact interfaces, and combines it with the Babyface's usability through the optional RME remotes. With the Fireface UCX RME reinvented an already perfect product, by improving existing features and characteristics plus adding sophisticated new ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe UCX provides 36 channels of audio - 18 I\/Os. All channels can be used at the same time. Up to 8 analog and 10 digital channels can be recorded onto 18 separate tracks. All outputs can be used for ASIO Direct Monitoring purposes.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003e8 Inputs\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003eOn 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\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003e8 Outputs\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e 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\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eSound Quality\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e 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\r\n\r\n\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\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eLow Latency Converters\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\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\r\n\r\n\u003ch3\u003eProfessional Level Support\u003c\/h3\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e A 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\r\n\r\n\u003cul\u003e\r\n\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\r\n\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\r\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RME","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44449857470567,"sku":"55148","price":1439.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/rme-fireface-ucx_55148_1_d2d65451-dded-4afb-b5ad-3d2b719b1c64.jpg?v=1787090718","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/rme-fireface-ucx-demo-deal","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
