RME's Digiface AES is a modern, bus powered USB 2.0 high-end audio interface with 14 inputs and 16 outputs that scores with many useful features for everyday studio use. On board are digital I/Os, two analogue combo jacks (XLR/Line In), 4 analogue outputs as well as SteadyClock FS and a parametric EQ, while playback/monitoring is done via TotalMix FX - in short an all-in-one solution for recording and output of digital as well as analogue sources.

All functions can be controlled directly from the front panel by means of rotary encoders and several push buttons, providing convenient and direct access to all functions. With the four keys and the encoder, a high-resolution and clear colour display as well as a well-thought-out menu structure, you can make changes and configurations of the device at any time.
The internal memory allows you to store six different device configurations. This way the audio interface can be transformed into a number of completely different devices at the push of a button, which is especially useful in standalone operation. Furthermore, TotalMix FX can also be controlled externally via
