Why RME?
RME designs and builds its interfaces and converters in Germany and is known for driver support that outlasts the hardware, with current releases for products sold more than a decade ago. TotalMix FX, the routing and monitoring engine shared across the line, runs on the device itself rather than the host computer, so monitoring stays stable regardless of what the computer is doing.
