DIGIFACE HAMMERFALL DSP SYSTEM - Interface Audio, 52 canais, 24 Bit/96Khz
Apenas entradas e saídas digitais, nomeadamente 3 ADAT e uma SPDIF (em RCA - Coaxial)
PARA UTILIZAR ESTA PLACA NECESSITA DE UM INTERFACE PCIe OU Cardbuss Express.
A RME afirma-se como o fabricante de tecnologias ideais para aqueles que trabalham e preferem não passar o dia a resolver problemas.

Características:

A Digiface pode ser pensada como uma Hammerfall HDSP 9652 mas numa caixa externa com meia unidade de rack (e com algumas diferenças, claro). Isto confere à Digiface uma capacidade mais móvel, podendo ser ligada a um computador portátil (através do interface Cardbus) ou a um desktop (através do Interface PCI).

À semelhança do Multiface II, a Digiface é uma plataforma de ligação entre aparelhos com diversas entradas e saídas ADAT e o seu computador.

Possui 3 entradas e 3 saídas ADAT, 1 entrada/saída S/PDIF (coaxial), 1 entrada/saída Word Clock (BNC), 1 saída estéreo de linha para ligação de auscultadores com controlo de volume independente e interface MIDI (2 in/ 2 out).

O conversor externo Digiface não possui drivers, pois é suposto trabalhar em conjunto com as placas PCI Express ou ExpressCard (para portáteis). São essas placas de interface de ligação entre os computadores que possuem os drivers, disponíveis para ambas as plataformas (Windows e Macintosh).

RME presents the Digiface, a highly extended version of the well-known PCI card Project Hammerfall (DIGI9652). Digiface offers 3 ADAT optical I/Os, ADAT-Sync In, SPDIF I/O and word clock I/O like its predecessor. On top, there are 2 MIDI I/Os and a separate analog line out. Thanks to its unique 'Zero CPU Load' technology Hammerfall DSP guarantees highest performance and lowest latency on both notebooks and desktops!

Digiface provides interesting features:

• 3 x ADAT digital I/O, based on RME's reliable Bitclock PLL
• 1 x SPDIF digital I/O, based on RME's reliable DIGI96 technology
• 1 x ADAT Sync In (9-pin D-type) for sample accurate transfers
• 1 x Word clock I/O (BNC)
• 1 x analog Line/headphone output, separate output for independent submix
• 2 x MIDI I/O, 32 channels high-speed MIDI
• HDSP Meter Bridge: freely scalable level meters, peak- and RMS calculation directly in hardware
• TotalMix: 1456 channel mixer with 40 bit internal resolution
• S/MUX poured in hardware: 12 channels 24-Bit/96kHz for record and playback on ADAT optical
• DIGICheck, RMEs unique metering- and analyse tool

... and numerous other features found already in the Hammerfall series. And all this for an unbeatable price!

The small box using half the space of a 19" rack doesn't show the included outstanding power and extensive features at first glance. The front panel hosts some useful status LEDs, like MIDI state, lock state of the digital inputs and error state of the host-bus. Additionally there's a high-quality 24-Bit/96kHz analog line output, also usable with headphones, and one MIDI I/O.

The back of the Digiface offers real Hammerfall connectivity: 1 x MIDI I/O, 3 x ADAT I/O, SPDIF I/O, ADAT Sync In and word clock I/O. This compact multi-Channel solution has everything you need.

The Digiface can be used with laptops as well as desktop computers. The connection to notebooks is achieved via a CardBus card, the connection to desktops via a PCI card or PCI Express card. These interfaces are sold separately.

Just click on the hammer symbol in the systray of the taskbar and the settings dialog of the Digiface comes up. The clear structured, easy to understand window plus the unique informative status windows for input signal, clock mode, sample rate and time code make your work with Hammerfall DSP System to a real pleasure. With a simple mouse click you gain access to the full power of your system.

When working with several digital sources it is not only necessary to know if these are properly locked, but also if they are totally synchronized. RMEs exclusive SyncCheck ® checks all input signals and displays their actual state, and thanks to our newIntelligent Clock Control (ICC)   concept you have all clocks and states under control - with ease.

A display of the time code at the ADAT Sync-In port offers a quick check of the communication between external device and Hammerfall.
