About this listing
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.\nKey Features\n\n\n +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.\n Full SteadyClock FS circuit as in the ADI-2 Pro FS for lowest jitter and highest jitter immunity.\n 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.\n 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.\n 6 samples less latency on the AD side by new ADC (5 samples AD, 7 samples DA. It won't get quicker...).\n All the above improvements were achieved without raising the units power consumption.\n K-slot for theft protection.\n\nTechnical Specifications\nANALOG\nAD, Microphone/Line 1-2\nInput: XLR, electronically balanced\nInput impedance balanced: 2 kOhm, 5.2 kOhm with PAD\nInput impedance unbalanced: 1 kOhm, 2.6 kOhm with PAD\nSignal to Noise ratio (SNR): 113,7 dB RMS unweighted, 117 dBA\nFrequency response @ 44.1 kHz, -0.1 dB: 18 Hz - 20.8 kHz\nFrequency response @ 96 kHz, -0.5 dB: 7 Hz - 45.8 kHz\nFrequency response @ 192 kHz, -1 dB: 5 Hz - 88 kHz\nWith PAD active : -0.1 dB 8 Hz, -0.5 dB < 4 Hz, -1 dB < 3 Hz\nTHD: < -112 dB, < 0.00024 %\nTHD+N: < -108 dB, < 0.00035 %\nTHD @ 30 dB Gain: < -115 dB, < 0.00016 %\nTHD+N @ 30 dB Gain: < -100 dB, < 0.001 %\nChannel separation: > 110 dB\nGain range: -11 dB up to +65 dB\nMaximum input level XLR, Gain 0 dB: +8 dBu, PAD +19 dBu\nMaximum input level XLR, Gain 65 dB: -57 dBu, PAD -46 dBu\nAD, LINE/INSTRUMENT IN 3-4\nAs Microphone/Line 1-2, but:\nInput: 6.3 mm TS jack, unbalanced\nInput impedance: 1 MOhm\nSignal to Noise ratio (SNR): 116 dB RMS unweighted, 120 dBA\nFrequency response @ 44.1 kHz, -0.1 dB: 5 Hz - 20.8 kHz\nFrequency response @ 96 kHz, -0.5 dB: < 3 Hz - 45.8 kHz\nFrequency response @ 192 kHz, -1 dB: < 2 Hz - 92 kHz\nMaximum input level @+4 dBu, Gain 0 dB: +13 dBu\nMaximum input level @-10 dBV, Gain 9 dB: -5 dBu\nDA, Line Out 1-2\nDynamic range (DR): 115 dB RMS unweighted, 118 dBA\nFrequency response @ 44.1 kHz, -0.5 dB: 0 Hz - 20.8 kHz\nFrequency response @ 96 kHz, -0.5 dB: 0 Hz - 45 kHz\nFrequency response @ 192 kHz, -1 dB: 0 Hz - 89 kHz\nTHD: - 106 dB, 0.0005 %\nTHD+N: -102 dB, 0.0008 %\nChannel separation: > 110 dB\nOutput: XLR balanced\nOutput impedance: 300 Ohm balanced, 150 Ohm unbalanced\nOutput level @ 0 dBFS: Balanced +19 / +4 dBu, unbalanced +13 / +7 dBu\nDC @ 0 dBFS: 6.35mm 4.8 V, 3.5mm 2.4 V, XLR bal. 9.6 V\nDA, PHONES 3/4\nAS DA Line Out, but:\nOutput: 6.3 mm TRS jack, unbalanced\nOutput impedance: 10 Ohm\nOutput level at 0 dBFS, 1 kOhm load: +13 dBu\nMax power @ 0.1% THD: 60 mW\nSignal to Noise ratio (SNR): 114.8 dB RMS unweighted, 118 dBA\nNoise level: -101.8 dBu\nOutput: 3.5 mm TRS jack, unbalanced\nOutput impedance: 0.1 Ohm\nOutput level at 0 dBFS, 1 kOhm load: +7 dBu\nMax power @ 0.1% THD: 90 mW\nSignal to Noise ratio (SNR): 114 dB RMS unweighted, 117 dBA\nNoise level: -107 dBu\nMIDI\n1 x MIDI I/O via breakout cable with 2 x 5-pin DIN jacks\nGalvanically isolated by optocoupled input\nHi-speed mode: Jitter and response time typically below 1 ms\nSeparate 128 byte FIFOs for input and output 25.3\nDIGITAL\nClocks: Internal, ADAT In, SPDIF In\nJitter suppression of external clocks: > 50 dB (2.4 kHz)\nEffective clock jitter influence on AD and DA conversion: near zero\nPLL ensures zero dropout, even at more than 100 ns jitter\nDigital Bitclock PLL for trouble-free varispeed ADAT operation\nSupported sample rates: 28 kHz up to 200 kHz\n\nDIGITAL INPUTS\nADAT Optical\n1 x TOSLINK\nStandard: 8 channels 24 bit, up to 48 kHz\nDouble Speed (S/MUX): 4 channels 24 bit 96 kHz\nQuad Speed (S/MUX4) : 2 channels 24 bit 192 kHz\nBitclock PLL ensures perfect synchronisation even in varispeed operation\nLock Range: 31.5 kHz - 50 kHz\nJitter suppression: > 50 dB (2.4 kHz)\nSPDIF optical\n1 x optical, according to IEC 60958\nAccepts Consumer and Professional format\nLock Range: 27 kHz - 200 kHz\nJitter suppression: > 50 dB (2.4 kHz)\n\nDIGITAL OUTPUTS\nADAT optical\n1 x TOSLINK\nStandard: 8 channels 24 bit, up to 48 kHz\nDouble Speed (S/MUX): 4 channels 24 bit 96 kHz\nQuad Speed (S/MUX4) : 2 channels 24 bit 192 kHz\nSPDIF optical\n1 x optical, according to IEC 60958\nFormat Consumer (SPDIF) according to IEC 60958\nSample rate 28 kHz up to 200 kHz\n\nGENERAL\nPower supply: USB bus power or external power supply\nIdle power consumption: 2.8 Watts\nTypical power consumption: 3.7 Watts\nMax. power consumption: 5.4 Watts\nCurrent at 5 V bus power operation: 700 mA (3.7 Watts)\nCurrent at 12 V external power: 313 mA (3.7 Watts)\nDimensions (WxHxD): 108 x 35 x 181 mm (4.25" x 1.4" x 7.1")\nWeight: 680 g ( 1.5 lbs)\nTemperature range: +5 up to +50 Celsius (41 F up to 122F)\nRelative humidity: < 75%, non condensing
