Latest Driver Updates USB
Hello,
a new firmware is available for the Fireface UC. Version 88 fixes: In Quad Speed operation SMUX4 did not work. The mic gain fader position of channel 1 sometimes changed on ASIO start. In QS mode the analog input channel 1 (mic) did not work correctly.

Re: Latest Driver Updates USB
We released firmware 91 which fixes problems with the pitch fader and SPDIF output channel status.
We also released a combined Mac driver for the Fireface UC (version 1.14), that should work in 10.5 32 bit, 10.6 32 bit and 10.6 64 bit.

Re: Latest Driver Updates USB
Fireface UC: Firmware 112 fixes a problem in stand-alone mode where the sample rate was not set correctly (note: 111 is shown as up-to-date in the FUT, disregard that).
Windows driver 0.959 adds official support for Fireface UFX with TotalMix 0.91. The Fireface UC will use TM FX as well starting with this driver.
Attention Fireface UC! The former TotalMix autorun entry is not deleted by the driver, therefore has to be deleted by the user before (or after) the driver update. Remove the entry
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\FirefaceUsbTray2 = firefaceusbmix.exe
The most easiest and safest way to do this is to double-click on the file
remove old mixer autostart.reg
which is found within the driver archive. Windows will then remove the autostart of the old mixer. (Note: if you downloaded the driver before please download again, the reg file is now included).

Babyface Mac/Win: Firmware 1.79 activates Zero Crossing detection for the microphone gain stages (reduced clicks when changing gain with audio present), and removes a small bug in the USB core that fixes several compatibility issues, like compatibility to Mac OS < 10.5.8.

Fireface UFX: The DSP firmware has been updated from 110 to 111. Compressor/Expander were in stereo mode not coupled reliably, so worked in dual mono mode instead.

Re: Latest Driver Updates USB
The new Mac USB series driver 1.66 solves a small but annoying problem for the UFX and UCX: if the system sample rate is 44.1 kHz and the unit has been set to a different one (for example in stand-alone mode), then booting the Mac with the unit attached the sample rate was not set to 44.1 kHz. Fixed.

Re: Latest Driver Updates USB
Windows 8 includes a new USB driver called xHCI (which also adds native USB 3 support). Our current USB driver crashes during installation under Windows 8. The soon to be released driver 1.020 should be fully compatible with Windows 8. If you want to (and can) try:

Re: Latest Driver Updates USB
Mac USB driver 1.72 is now available on our website. It includes some nice changes: Supports multi-user operation, Changed buffer handling for 10.7.4, Fixes channel order in 10.7.4 (UFX), Installer signed for 10.8. The latter means that we tested the driver successfully with the current version of 10.8, but will not officially call it 'compatible' unitl the final OS has been released by Apple.

Re: Latest Driver Updates USB
Mac USB driver 1.76 is highly recomended for use with 10.8 and up, as it fixes several issues that had been reported in this forum, plus some others:
- Workaround for playback problem after sleep
- Bugfix crash when turning the encoder of UC/BF while the computer -
- Fixed clock domain prevents the unnecessary use of sample rate conversion in multi-unit operation (Aggregated Devices)
- Red button in the Settings dialog closes the window
- Change: Device was sometimes not removed when disconnecting it under 10.8. This also caused wrong sample rates and playback device settings on reconnection.
- Further improved setting of the former sample rate on reconnection.
- Internal stream IDs optimized
- TotalMix FX 0.985: Bugfix disconnecting the UFX caused slow reaction when then other RME USB devices are connected. Open GL is now allowed to use alternative renderers.

Re: Latest Driver Updates USB
We released firmware 201 for the Babyface, adding stand-alone mode and Class Compliant mode (iPad!). The firmware update tool also includes firmware 117 for the UC, which fixes an internal loopback problem with the ADAT channels.

Re: Latest Driver Updates USB
Firmware 203 turns the flashing instrument input LED (which many people did not like) into a constantly lit one, but with reduced brightness. Only in CC and stand-alone mode, in normal operation the LED is off as before. Also a bug in the Mac firmware has been fixed that caused distortion on echo/reverb.
