Four years ago the Babyface Pro again demonstrated RME’s
absolute commitment to superior craftsmanship, not only in audio
circuits and driver development, but also in mechanics. Created
with the highest precision from a block of aluminum, this
high-end portable interface incorporated newly designed analog
and digital circuits. Its innovative energy saving technologies
provided supreme fidelity with no compromises in level, noise or
distortion. In the new Babyface Pro FS even more improvements
were implemented: +19 / +4 dBu switch on the bottom adds a direct
way to reduce the output level, thus improves SNR for sensitive
active monitors, avoids distortion / overload, and helps to keep
TotalMix FX faders near 0 dB instead of high attenuations. Full
SteadyClock FS circuit as in the ADI-2 Pro FS for lowest jitter
and highest jitter . 3. 5 mm TRS phones output power
rises from 70 mW to 90 mW. THD of both phones outputs improved by
up to 10 dB. Uses same output op-amps as ADI-2 Pro now. Output
impedance of 3. 5 mm TRS lowered from 2 Ohms to 0. 1 Ohms. Mic
inputs SNR improved from 112. 2 dB to 113. 7 dB, TRS Line inputs
SNR improved from 114 dB to 116. 3 dB (120 dBA). THD Line inputs
improved by 8 dB. 6 samples less latency on the AD side by new
ADC (5 samples AD, 7 samples DA. It won't get quicker. . . ). All
the above improvements were achieved without raising the units
power consumption. K-slot for theft protection. ADI-2 Series
Headphone Power The two headphone outputs, offering TRS and
mini-jack sockets in parallel, have completely separate driver
stages to perfectly match low and high impedance headphones, ing
pristine sonic results no matter what type of headphone is used.
The 3. 5 mm TRS phones output power rises to 90 mW. THD of both
phones outputs improved by up to 10 dB. and uses same output
op-amps as ADI-2 Pro now. Finally the output impedance of 3. 5 mm
TRS was lowered from 2 Ohms to 0. 1 Ohms. Full range capture -
Improved Mic & Line Inputs For the main I/O RME have designed a
XLR socket, which integrates seamlessly into the housing and
saves space. Two digitally controlled preamps provide
individually switchable 48V phantom power. These circuits feature
a gain range of 76 dB, adjustable in steps of 1 dB, including a
relay-driven PAD, resulting in exceptional EIN (Equivalent Input
Noise) performance as well as line overload protection, and
enough gain for even the lowest level microphones. Babyface Pro’s
incredibly efficient design almost never requires an external
power supply – it’s perfectly stable on USB 3 bus power, and also
most USB 2 ports, with no degradation in any technical
specification. This makes it perfect for mobile , even
with a pair of your favourite condenser microphones. The
comprehensive feature set continues with an optical TOSLINK I/O;
use as either an ADAT port with SMUX support or SPDIF for
sessions up to 192 kHz. In combination with an external ADAT
converter, the Babyface Pro fully supports 12 analog inputs as
well as 12 outputs, making it ideal for both live and studio
multi-track applications. You can plug any instrument, line or
high impedance, into Babyface Pro’s jack inputs 3 & 4. Record
your guitar on the go, with no additional hardware required. MIDI
I/O via an included breakout cable completes the package. More
Pro level Performance with SteadyClock FS In digital audio, the
clock frequency is an essential factor, as it creates the
correlation between the audio bits and the time reference.
Unfortunately, the clock frequency is not always as stable as
desired. The Babyface Pro FS offers the full SteadyClock FS
circuit as in the ADI-2 Pro FS for lowest jitter and highest
jitter . Excellent performance in all clock modes and
High Quality Analog Conversion to hear your mix as it is. Digital
format conversion in RME products are done without any loss or
degredation, and SteadyClock FS ensures your sonic image will
never experience degredation. This helps to optimize s
and mixes because the soundstage has more depth and clarity.
