RME's are for professionals. Thus the price. Their hardware is top notch, their engineering is very high quality and their drivers are best in the business. I've tried so many manufacturers over the years and only RME has delivered drivers that just WORK. No glitches, no issues, no weirdness... they just WORK. 24/7/365.... And for that alone RME is worth the price for anyone who wants to get shit done and don't want to mess with their equipment and computer.

Very nice unboxing. I'd like to say a huge BRAVO to RME for my FF400 been running smoothly since 2007. I'm now considering an upgrade either to UCX II or the UFX. I wouldn't even think of another brand. Not that I had to try anything else except a MOTU 8pre which I used to expand my mic inputs but only in standalone mode. RME's software and drivers are phenomenal.

Very nice unboxing video and even for two such powerful products with so many features like UFX+ and 12Mic. You really pulled this off great and it was a lot of fun to watch, you could also literally feel the great enthusiasm and joy in the setup and operation. A few additional notes: 4:40: the four Mic/Line inputs of the UFX+ can also be used as Hi-Z inputs. 05:10: DURec is also used as a backup for DAW recording. If you like you can also use Global Record (DIGICheck), but it is only available for Windows. 18:20: in TotalMix FX there are no gain controls for the 12Mic, because the Auxdevice feature for the 12Mic (like for the Octamic XTC) is promised by RME, but not implemented yet. Due to Corona, I guess things have been delayed unfortunately. If you want to refine the setup further at some point, I think it's worth connecting an ADI-2 Pro FS R BE to AES or ADAT, which adds some very useful features for headphones and your main monitors. This then puts the icing on the cake. And again, really very well done, I enjoyed watching your video very much, even though I have such a setup in operation for >1 year already. It was just fun to watch you unpack and set up :-)

The latency is practically zero and the preamps are super clean and transparent. That's exactly what you want right! The convertors stand up to the Prism stuff, they are not better but they do stand up to it for the money. You are going to have a lot of fun with those boxes!

And the only cable I have to plug/unplug is one fiberoptic cable that I've been too lazy to run through the floor and instead run up two flights of stairs, through the entryway, and into the living room.

Hey man, love the video, it's kind of hard to find a lot of in-depth here's what it's really like out the box vids :) While this setup is out of my price range, I am considering the UCX ii as an all rounder small home studio setup. Having made the upgrade, do you standby the UCX line as a solid option even though it kept has the older comp interface? I think it's odd that they didn't go with USB C for a brand new device in 2021, but I also think they must know what they're doing and most USB C is marketing/future proofing the actual input form factor. I use Windows, and currently have a Motu m4, but I've felt limited by it a number of times in larger projects. An interface that "just works" and is as well respected as RME - even for the premium price, is worth it for me if the value is real. Thoughts? Also, I'd consider the Babyface Pro FS but the form factor kills it for the setup.

The Germans call these outputs sub-mixes. Things get more complicated when I hook up a 500 series rack to it. At this point, the signal goes from the daw to the software playback. Then I send it to the output of physical connection. Then, from those outputs, the signal goes to the inputs. And, finally back to the daw.

I asked Jeff, the RME product manager, on today's live stream and he said that you could probably get away with a bunch of EQs on individual channels because it's pretty lightweight. Same for reverb, since it's a single instance and you're bussing it to individual channels. But compression will start to chew through the DSP available once you start adding it to a lot of channels. So for compression, you'd want to do some sub-mixing in TotalMix in order to group channels together and use a single compressor instance for multiple channels. Hopefully that answers your question!

I'm certainly no expert on surround setups, since I'm old fashioned and just mix in stereo 😊 But aside from the 8 analog inputs and outputs on the UCX II, the rest of the connections are all digital. So you could connect something like the Behringer ADA8200 to the ADAT inputs and outputs on the UCX and that would give you 8 more analog inputs and outputs (although it'd be limited to 44.1 and 48 kHz if that matters to you). I think that the S/PDIF coax is limited to 2 channels in and out, but goes up to 192 kHz. I'm not sure about the AES/EBU jack. RME USA is typically really good about answering questions, and you can get a hold of them here: www.rme-usa.com/support.html Good luck, I hope you get the right setup for your needs!

I found this in the manual for the 12Mic about the ADAT outputs: Each port can send up to eight audio channels. At double and quad speed, the maximum of channels per port is reduced to four and two respectively. ... A brand new device with preset 1 loaded sends analog inputs 1-12 to ADAT output ports 1 (input 1-8) and 2 (input 9-12) per default. If preset 1 was changed manually, the routing can be re-created manually. The factory preset does not route any signal to ADAT outputs. Hope that helps!

@@YHRS so 4 intputs via adat would be somehow wasted? Is it better to link two octamic II units via adat to have full 16 aditional preamps instead of 12 with 12mic? Thanks

Display looks like a child toy, terrible! But Sound card must be just great!
