Current laptops offer calculation power on par with fast desktop
systems. Dual core processors, 2 Gigabyte RAM, big and fast hard
drives, dual monitor operation with a quick graphics card - today all
this is also available small, lightweight and portable. No wonder that
RME receives more and more requests for a portable MADI solution.
Thanks to the fast PCI Express bus and the latest, extremely powerful
FPGAs, RME is proud to present another milestone in the company's
history - the world's first and only MADI interface for laptops, based
on an ExpressCard: the MADIface!
Consisting of the HDSPe ExpressCard MADI and a small breakout box,
the MADIface offers full MADI power: 64 channels input and 64 channels
output, up to 192 kHz sample rate, in MADI embedded MIDI transmission,
complete TotalMix that is even remote controllable and has all features
of the 'bigger' HDSPe MADI, as well as lowest latency and CPU-load. To
make the usage as comfortable as possible, the power for the breakout
box is provided directly by the ExpressCard, so no external power
supply is required.
The MADIface is fully compatible to all devices with MADI interface.
Of course it can be used perfectly in combination with RME's own MADI
series products. For example with the ADI-648 an 8 x ADAT optical PC
interface is realized, unbeatable in price and performance. And with
the ADI-6432 a bidirectional AES/EBU frontend with 64 channels is set
up hassle-free.
Thanks to RME's flash update technology, future firmware
improvements, adjustments, and bugfixes can be installed easily at any
time. For more information, click here |
