    The Fireface 802 FS is a highly integrated pro audio solution for live and studio use, all within a 19” enclosure. An interface designed for users who don’t want to make compromises in sound, stability, and ultra-low latency operation and who long for an unrivaled professional feature set. Once again, a milestone interface from RME, including the best of the best and even a bit more. 60 channels of audio, high-end microphone preamps, reference class converters, a complete effects section, and operation at up to 192 kHz are the base for many more features.

    Enhance Your Recording Setup - Discover Unmatched Flexibility

    Ultra-low latency operation with RME USB 2 technology and the legendary RME driver stability and maintenance. SteadyClock FS jitter suppression, individually switchable reference levels for all inputs and outputs, full stand-alone functionality, and identical Windows PC and Mac operation completes the package.

    The Fireface 802 FS is based on a newly developed analog and digital board. While the analog board offers, for example, DC-coupled analog outputs as well as new AD and DA converters, the digital board also enables interesting new features thanks to updated high-tech components.

    The front panel of the Fireface 802 FS provides four high-performance XLR/TRS combo inputs for microphone, instrument, and line signals and two stereo headphone jacks with +17 dBu output level to provide high volumes even with hi-impedance headphones.

    The rear panel reveals the full connectivity of the Fireface 802 FS. Besides MIDI and Word Clock I/O, the two optical ADAT I/Os, an AES/EBU I/O, and eight balanced analog inputs and outputs with line level are available. With the new Multi-Mode, the two ADAT I/Os can be used as separate optical SPDIF inputs and outputs in addition to the AES I/O. Users will also find a USB A port for connecting directly to the optional available ARC USB.
