The RME Advanced Remote Control is an optional accessory to the Fireface UFX and Fireface UCX.
The wired Advanced Remote Control (ARC) has been designed for direct access to the most frequently used actions and commands required in a studio's daily work. The ARC consists of a solid metal case with a main encoder dial and 8 push buttons, 6 of them equipped with LEDs. Seven buttons can be freely assigned via TotalMix FX to more than 36 different commands.
The Advanced Remote Control (ARC) can be used with the Fireface UCX. It can also be used with all Fireface UFX with a serial number 23241707 (built after June 2011) or higher.

At the Musikmesse 2012 in Frankfurt RME presents the new HDSPe MADI FX PCI Express card (Hall 5.1 B80).
The MADI FX marks a new milestone both in the history of audio interface cards and within the long series of outstanding RME devices. Never before has such a high-performance multi-channel audio system existed.
The HDSPe MADI FX features 390 audio channels! Three MADI I/Os - two optical and one coaxial - are accompanied by one AES/EBU I/O and one analog monitoring output.
The HDPSe MADI FX introduces a newly developed modular Hammerfall Pro Audio Core. The high-tech core will process three times as many channels as the channel count of the previous MADI flagship, while actually reducing the system load and enabling ultra-low latencies on modern computers.
The new core technology is accompanied by a special version of TotalMix FX, which allows using the enormous channel count efficiently, and a faster DSP. The integrated 192 kHz RME effects engine allows latency-free monitoring with numerous effects directly on the hardware of the card, independent from the DAW software in use.
The card can be used as powerful MADI router. Unlike most other router solutions, each channel can be routed individually - even with separate level settings for each routing.
With the new Seamless Redundancy Operation the card can operate as single MADI input device, recording up to 64 channels. As soon as the current input fails the audio data received from one of the other two inputs is used. The audio data is not interrupted when switching to another input - and the card can use not only one, but two more MADI sources for redundancy.
The shipping starts in summer 2012.

RME announces that starting April 2012 the successful Fireface UCX will be shipped without the previously included Basic Remote Control, and therefore at a lower price.
Users can choose the new and powerful Advanced Remote Control as a perfect addition to the Fireface UCX (as well as the Fireface UFX). The Advanced Remote with six more programmable buttons is sold separately.
The Remote Control Edition of the Fireface UCX will be available until the Standard edition starts shipping.

In April 2011 Audio AG started to establish a help fund for the victims of the disaster in Japan. For a period of three months some of Audio AG customers donated 1% of their RME turnover to the fund raising project. Audio AG doubled the sum and round it up to 40.00o Euro.
The donated money was transferred to the Help e. V. organization. Help's policy is "help to self-help". They are always cooperating with local partner organizations, because locals know their people, their culture and therefore the needs of the people better than any foreign expert. Partner for Japan project is JEN.
The money for Audio AG's supported project is for reconstruction of the local business structures in the commercial Avenues in Ayukawa, Ishinomaki City. Business operators will be provided with basics like temporary buildings, necessary equipment and most basic store fixtures to allow them to proceed to smoothly re-start or start the business. This project is intended to give significant impact to the local economy of Ayukawa area, and is expected to lead to improvement in employment and living environment.

RME releases a free multi-channel wave file batch processor software that allows to process files generated by the Direct USB Recording (DURec) of the Fireface UFX.
Most digital audio workstations can import multi-channel wav files generated by the UFX directly into their projects. The need for the special RME tool arises from the fact that standard wave files can not be bigger than 2 GB to be fully compatible. With higher track counts and longer recording times DURec therefore uses multiple consecutive files. Importing these into typical DAWs requires the user to adjust and align the content of each file to the previous one.
The RME tool adds an easy way to combine and split multichannel interleaved files from the UFX into single or dual channel files. The content of consecutive files is automatically combined into a single file. In the rare case that these again exceed the 2 GB limit the tool automatically writes RF64 files. The Mac version can also write CAF (Core Audio Format) files.
RME's Multichannel WAV File Batch Processor' can also perform multiple conversions of different recordings. Once all the single tasks are set up the software will process them one after the other automatically, hence 'batch processor'. The software is available for Windows and Mac OS X and can be downloaded and freely used from the RME website.
