The fellas over at ADK Pro Audio are giving away one of the brand new RME interfaces for free on their facebook. It's worth looking into.

Hi everybody,

What PCIe slot are you using for best performance?

I would like to know if anyone can tell me for sure if it's worth paying
the extra price difference between a MOTU and something like an Apogee Ensemble or a RME UFX?
This is mainly a question of sound quality difference

Ill be using it with a iMac and Cubase 6.
This will be my main Recording interface, will be used with external preamps for tracking "rock" drums, guitar, vocals, exclusively in my home studio.
I know the feature differences between the two, my question is on the audio quality, does one have better conversion quality or Pres?

Anyone have direct experience with RME PCI cards. I'm using an M-audio audiophile 192 ($129), and wondering if the RME ($499) will make a noticable difference.

Well, for the second time in less than a year, my FF800 took a dump on me.
What's wrong? The red "Host" light never extinguishes, and the computer cannot recognize the unit. Effectively rendering it DEAD.

The first time it happened, the retailer replaced my B-stock unit w/ a new one, minus the upcharge. That was nice, minus the 2 week turnaround.

Another serious converter by RME The M series that I didn't fully understand until today. These video's sure helped me understand what the M-16 does and I want it.

I ahve a question for anyone knowing what midi overMADI means exactly? Am I able to use these like a standard midi connection for controllers and midi keyboards?

Apart from my remote system. Its getting close, I'm making a decision on a new 16 I/O AD DA system and need some clarification help. Tossing between Lynx and RME and need MIDI but can work around this.

ADI8-QS-M x 2 are what I'm looking at. I'm guessing this is the interface (HDSPe MADI card )? How do I interface 2 ADI8-QS-M this to this?

Is there anyother major difference besides the amount of inputs?

I was looking into the 800 because well it is talking about all over here, several people pointed me in its direction and it is one of the top audio interfaces out there.

Now they have a 400. which is cheaper but seems just as worthy.
