I have an M-Audio 1814 but do have the opportunity to upgrade to an RME Fireface 800. Any thoughts on this? In the past I've had PCI cards from M-Audio and RME and liked the RME's (DIGI96/8 PST) analog outputs much better, though it looks like the 1814 has improved from older products. I'm really interested in the quality of the converters on the RME.

Hi All,

This is my first post, great forum so much knowledge!

I'm considering to get an RME fireface800 interface and I've just come to realize that it does not come with dedicated monitor outs. Is this considered bad? And What is the alternative output in this case?

Thanks.

Hi ..
I just purchased a RME multiface ..
great sounding box but the company must be run by telepathic borgs because the documentation on everything is awful ..

I already posted this question in mastering forum but no reply.
Maybe someone here...

Problem...

I hear great final mix (analog) but when I record that thru RME converters (Multiface) it doesn't sound that good anymore.

I recorded in 24bit resolution, 44.1.
Details are lost, highs are muddy, bass not tight. Something is wrong. OK, it is not SO wrong (most people probably would not notice it) but I do and it bothers me.

hi firends

I want to buy a new sound card for my studio. what do u think which one is more stable.
thanks

I have the opportunity to buy 2 brand new Apogee MINI MPs for $899.
I was thinking about just buying a quadmic for my 4 channel location recordings for $489.
What is a better deal in this case.
Has somebody tryed the MINI MPs.
I have the octamic already so quadmic info is not needed.I know how it sound already.ANd I am very happy with it.

Hi,

First post on this forum..i feel like I stumbled on a gold mine! its great!

Confused between Layla 3g and an RMEmultiface with pci interface. The RMEsetup will cost me $300 more and I will not be getting two mic preamp-amps...I dont know too much about the AD/DAs on both cards..

I am looking for a setup and found this on Ebay Australia. Is it reasonable value for a starter rig

1X RME HDSP9652
2X ADA8000 8 chan pre's with converters
1X pair M-Audio Bx5 monitors
1X sm pro audio headphone amp

Starting at $1800.00 AU I think thats about $800.00 US

Hi,

I would love to hear any advice regarding the difference in sound quality between the Apogee Rosetta 800 and the RME Fireface.
