RME MADIface XT MADI USB3.0 Interface
394 Channel Triple MADI Interface
The RME MADIface XT is the world's first USB3 audio interface - and the world's smallest portable interface that provides access to hundreds of audio channels in such a small package. For highest usability and connectivity the XT can also be used with USB 2.0 (computer I/O limited to 70 channels). Its unique PCI Express port connects to External PCI Express cards as well as adapters to Thunderbolt, providing all the fastest interfacing technologies available for maximum channel count and lowest latency in one unit.

The RME MADIface XT delivers the most complete I/O set for live or studio usage, combining two digitally controlled high end mic/line preamps, two balanced line outputs and one stereo phones output. Full stand-alone operation is possible with a remote control, enabling unlimited mixing, routing and processing – creating a limitless world of possible applications.
The MADIface XT has the capacity to transfer digital audio data directly to a computer from any device featuring a MADI interface. Analogue sources can be linked to a stereo analogue input, and two stereo analogue outputs add full monitoring connectivity. Installation is easy, even for the inexperienced user, thanks to intuitive Plug and Play engineering. The multitudinous individual features and well thought-out configuration dialogues put the MADIface XT at the very pinnacle of digital audio interfaces.
Front Panel
The front of the MADIface XT has 2 XLR/TRS line and microphone inputs, a stereo line/headphone output, two rotary encoders with push functionality, four menu keys, a graphical colour display, and six status LEDs.
Mic/Line Inputs
The Neutrik combo sockets of the two Mic/Line inputs provide XLR and 6.3 mm / 1/4" TRS connection. They have LEDs for Signal (SIG), Overload (Clip) and phantom power (48V).
Headphone Output
Channels 3/4 feed the headphone output, which also operates as high-quality unbalanced line output.
Display
The display main screen (Global Level Meters) shows the current state of interface mode (PCIe orange, USB 2 yellow, USB 3 blue), the sync state of MADI and AES inputs, and incoming and outgoing MIDI data.
The four keys, the two encoders 1 and 2, the high-resolution and clear colour display, and a well thought-out menu structure enable the user to quickly change and configure the device's settings completely without a computer. Help notes and clear markers in the display guide the user through all functions. The rotary encoder 1 and 2 set the monitoring volume of the rear and front output directly at the device.
Rear Panel
The rear panel of the MADIface XT has two balanced analogue outputs, word clock I/O, MADI coaxial I/O, two MADI optical I/O, USB 3 port (compatible to USB 2), PCI Express connector, MIDI/AES I/O D-sub for breakout cable, the power socket and a power switch.
Balanced Line Level Outputs
