How long have you been using: I used it for 15 months to my fullest satisfaction. I tried 2 other models before I decide, and Echo Audio Focusrite.
What is so special that you like most and least: the Firewire connection
Very good value for money, especially preamps built. If it again (and I did) I would buy the UFX rather for its USB connection.

Published on 12/08/12 at 23:40 (This content has been automatically translated from French)The reputation of the brand and the use of RME cards from friends has greatly motivated the choice of sound card for my home studio.

I had problems on PC. Freezait sound after a few seconds randomly despite the precautions taken and the readings to anticipate forums! In short, this is the coup that gave me Mac. And then no problem, it works nickel. I'm running Mac OSX 10.6.8 Snow Leopard.
The card has been tested on different software Audacity, Cubase Le, Live 8, Sibelius 7, Harmony Assistant, Logic, Renoise. It is rather amazing as quality. Level latency, we do not even talk. I often rule the buffers between 128 and 256 according to the most ambitious projects without a crack and I do not have mac pro, just a single iMac.
On a project 16 tracks Audio + Midi, with 4 occurrences Kontakt open, 3 Eq and Reverb effects, I have a latency of 5 ms input and output because I usually work in 44 Khz to not take up too much space disk. But the higher the frequency the card, the more latency decreases. A 96Khz I drops below 3ms input and just above 3ms output. The processor is held at 10%.
The drivers are updated regularly even if it is not instantaneous. In the year, you are almost sure to have the update for the following operating system but it may take 3 to 6 months.
GETTING STARTED
Worry-free installation. The drivers are easily found on the RME site and packages are installed easily on Mac.
I'm a little more reluctant about their software management card. It is probably improvable. Nothing to say about the "Fireface Settings" allowing you to choose different card options: SPDIF frequency, on / off the phantom power supplies on 4 XLR inputs on the front, on / off effect on the instrument input 1 facade (Drive, Speaker emulation and limit), choice of taking into account the inputs and outputs (eg there are two entries both 1.7 and 8, we suddenly chooses to activate the inputs 1,7,8 Facade or 1,7,8 entries from the rear of the rack or two).
on the other hand, their software "Fireface mixer" is not great in my opinion. I preferred instead of many I / O routing virtuellesun simplified its internal computer says "Playback", that is commonly known on the other cards, the "Full duplex". That is to say, its just consider the Internet or any player as INPUT and not as an output but nobody thinks to do that. So, it is necessary to use another kind Soundflower routing software ... In fact, it is quite possible but not very easy to do. Yet there is a matrix system which enables such entry as output (note the closures of its time!)
Proper and comprehensive manual, nothing more.
OVERALL OPINION
If this is the connection format, firewire which is rare now on the machines, this is an outstanding menu. I recommend choosing a rather fireface UFX is USB 2 and has just one remote control option that simplifies the setup I mentioned above. But RME is definitely a career choice. Nothing to do with MOTU about the quality, I can assure you having heard the difference. The real competitors would rather Digidesign ...See less00 - alliocha

I use it for 5 years, this is my first real sound card, i like death to these pre amps (there, I think it's clear) and the autonomous mode is frankly quite handy for me (I requisitioned and used in small coffee-concerts)

firewire is fast
Published on 04/26/12 at 23:10The Fireface 800 is a very powerful firewire interface, one of the reasons I chose to use it is because it has the fast technology for a firewire interface. It has real time sample rate lock and sample rat control during playback and recording. Most interface don’t have all of those features either, they mainly have one or the other. Also, I used it on a windows computer for service pack 2 and it worked great because they created an upgrade which fixed some of the lagging and not syncing problems.

UTILIZATION
The FireFace 800 has eight line inputs and outputs which was just enough for what we needed to use it for at the time. We used 7 of them though which left one open for something maybe we wanted to add on later down the road but at the time we only needed 7.
GETTING STARTED
Another great feature is the Steady clock technology. You can synch reference everything for the whole studio and session with it, I havent had another interface that could do that so it was big for me to be able to do that on this. It includes a midi option as well for those who use a lot of midi set ups.
OVERALL OPINION
There are other versions of the FireFace like the 400 mode which is a step down from the 800 if you are really arent in need of all the inputs and it can basically do the same thing as the Fireface 800 and its cheaper so check that one out if you don’t need this much inputs and outputs. Actually the 400 might be a better fit for a home studio that the 800 is because at home you really don’t have the need for that many ins and outs. But all in all the FireFace 800 is one of the best firewire interfaces out.

UTILIZATION
Installation: 5 minutes no problem at all.
I have all of the same install the latest firmware and drivers in the crowd. So I work with the last date (date of the notice sf)
I met the incompatibility with Cool Edit Pro. So I'm looking for a soft more "pro" that works in ASIO (I currently test in samplitude demo ... the choice is not made)
The config for RME driver is very well done. All parameters are ditables in real time (buffer note, it is convenient). A global pitch numrique lends the DAW other instrument, ca can be useful for that registers trs old instrument ...
The manual is in English only (though I bought my card in France ...) is not a concern, but all the same ... a could be included.
GETTING STARTED
For the moment the drivers are stable.
I have not had it better to light the card before the PC ... From the unwavering stability.
I use this card for now with vesrion samplitude demo. I'll see later in the choice DEFINITIONS.
I get easily 5 ms latency on my little config. Not bad.
For now, I recorded 8 tracks simultanment (drums) and do a payback of 10/12 tracks.
Everything is going well for now. I do not force the plug either. Some EQ, dynamics and reverb or two to ...
Its level: it's clean! no background noise, the preamp is of good quality. They are dynamic and appear transparent (compared to a goldmike Tfpro and P2, I think respect the overall gear cohrence)
I see (or hear) a significant difference with my old config:
- Front console behringer preamp for mic -> Map Hoontech ADDA2000 -> behringer console -> Behringer speaker monitoring
- Now: SPL or TFPro preamp (or preamp Intgr map) -> RME Fireface -> Behringer speaker monitoring.
I agree there were too many changes at once to issue all the good points the card only (the path has been shortened, I no longer use the behringer console for playback) ... but the overall feel of pure sound skips to the ears ... in short I'm happy and I have the feeling of being without something more mid-range with my old config.
a note on the HiZ between simulator and drive and cabinet. It's convenient, may be of service, but all the same gadget ... to record an ide in 2 minutes (you click on two buttons in the software of the RME and it's done ...) but good for just less time and much more ism, soft as AmpliTube trash or do better ... much better ...
OVERALL OPINION
I had this card in December. So trsrcent.
However, need several months to apprcier its functionality and its quality.
It is hard to see on the reliability (contrustion physical drivers)
I could compare my Hoontech (I always) is clearly not the same CATEGORY (not the same price either)
The ratio quality price is good I think. It is a card much, but from direct competition (MOTU) She is doing well plutt (I / O supplmentaires note and better quality preamp seems there ...) quality in price, there are any quality Vant ... so you must be a certain amount to prs to audio with a reliable product that sounds as fine tuning plutt computer and concsions (compared to my Hootech)
In short, an investment, but I am satisfied with my purchase.
J'espre did not make another choice of sound card before many years (I plan on notemment between ADAT supp)

UTILIZATION
The clock is so good it has become the master clock in the studio. Clocking makes an audible difference in terms of audible phase shift harshness. I have not yet used the mic pres, as I have plenty of amazing vintage ones by Altec, UA, UREI, and a Buzzaudio MA2.2.
The headphone monitor volume is very powerful and clean. The overall sound -if coupled with Logic pro 9- approximates the sweetness of 30 ips Ampex tape in general character and vibe (at 44.1). At higher rates it becomes more" Hollywood soundtrack" in detail level and vivid transient response as well as dynamic range perception.
GETTING STARTED
getting started was simple, it actually suprised me with how easy it was.
OVERALL OPINION
Overall, I am shure it will sound very different depending on what DAW you have ( protools, nuendo, cubase all have their own sound character due to differing algorithms and design priorities.
But the great news is it's superb -smooth non ear-fatiguing- performance at CD quality 44.1.
I hope this gives an idea of how this unit performs in strictly professional circumstances (the studio has a IT 20 series II Furman balanced power supply conditioning) for very long hours at a time.
